As a Native Texas…..

 

I was a teenager before I realized “fixinto “ was not a word, “coke” is not the universal word for all carbonated drinks, and not everyone knows what pickled okra is.

If you are a Texan. I’m sure you can relate to these as well.

You know all four seasons---almost summer, summer, still summer, and Christmas.

           “Ya’ll” is a word.

The Texas flag is the only flag that can be flown at equal heights to the U.S. flag.

In South Central Texas there is only one question….do you bleed orange or maroon?

You know what “snipe hunting” and “cow tipping” is. 

Distance is measured by minutes not by miles.

Going to Walmart or Wally World is a good form of entertainment.

You don’t know how anyone can survive without a truck or all-terrain vehicle.

You know what leaves make the best toilet paper.

Cowboy boots are considered dress shoes.

You drive with one hand resting on the top of the steering wheel and raise two fingers to wave at every passing car.

 

Hope you enjoyed things that are Uniquely Texan.
