What is the "Texas" of your country?

[Agathon]

Invercargill - commonly referred to as "the arsehole of the world".

Ugly, stupid genetic throwbacks the lot of them.

Here, Mike. I tracked down your theme song for you.


Can't Sleep, Clowns Will Eat Me
Alice Cooper

Don't sing me lullabies
I won't close my eyes, I can't close my eyes
It's true, I'm doomed 'til dawn shines through
Got too many things to do
Got friends to see, I can't miss a thing
It's true, I'm through
I'm screwed, unglued

I won't close my eyes, I can't close my eyes, I never close my eyes
You see, they're always there with funny hair, Oh, I'm so scared

It happens to me every night
Can't sleep, the clowns will eat me
They always want to take a bite
Can't sleep, the clowns will eat me
And if you think this isn't real
I'll show you wounds that never heal
To them I'm just a happy meal
Can't sleep, the clowns will eat me

Make the coffee black as night
Help me through the night
I know their appetite for me
I'm meat but I'm sweet as can be
And if I do too much booze
I begin to snooze
I hear the big old floppy shoes
It's true, I'm stew, unchewed

I won't close my eyes, I can't close my eyes, I never close my eyes
See, they're always there with that funny hair, Oh, I'm so scared

It happens to me every night
Can't sleep, the clowns will eat me
They always want to take a bite
Can't sleep, the clowns will eat me
And if you think this isn't real
I'll show you wounds that never heal
To them I'm just a happy meal
Can't sleep, the clowns will eat me

It happens to me every night
Can't sleep, the clowns will eat me
They always want to take a bite
Can't sleep, the clowns will eat me
And if you think this isn't real
I'll show you wounds that never heal
To them I'm just a happy meal
Can't sleep, the clowns will eat me

Clowns are evil.

[SlowwHand]

You didn't know I knew such intimate details about you, did you ?

[MikeH]

Are you the guy who keeps sending me e-mails asking me for pictures of my winky?

[SlowwHand]

That's Sava.

Texas is not culturaly diverse between the north and south of its territory int he same way Wales is.

Northern and southern demographics are very different in Texas. The south is heavily hispanic in a way the north (like Dallas) is not.

The real divide though is east and west Texas. East Texas (again, Dallas is a good example) is practically the good ol' south, while west Texas is more southwestern in culture.

You know, deleting that thread was shortsighted. Poly could make money by videoing the testicle slamming incident and charging for it.

Dunno where "Texas is wealthy" comes from. Bush may be wealthy, sure, but the state as a whole? Not really. Besides, though it hurts some to admit, the Bush family isn't really Texan. They're really from Connecticut.

Texas is our whacky conservatives with pride state, as California is our whacky liberals with tans state.

Texas does have an income higher than national average, IIRC.It's not NJ, but its no mississippi

[Jeltz]

But would there be a distinct cultural region within Finland? I would say so -- the Lapland.

Yeah, but it's not our Texas. Savo would be the closest equivalent of Texas, right Finns?

[chequita guevara]

What's the "Texas" of Texas?

[Pekka]

Jetlz, No.

My apartment is Texas of Finland. Why? Because I'm big, but my apartment is too small for me, plus others gives me trouble, I kick them in the mouth. My apartment takes no crap from no one. Plus it's located at the first floor, like Texas is down too. Plus, I'm always ready to take it on the whole building if they start messing with my sauna turns, as I have declared my apartment independent of their messing with the sauna turns. If it's my turn, it's me who goes. If others want to come too, they have to play nice or I'll twist their nuts in the knot.
