bullet 1Texan Rules for Yankeesbullet 1

RULE 1: Don't order a steak at a Waffle House. They serve breakfast 24 hours a day. Let them cook something they know.

RULE 2: Don't laugh at folks' names. Merleen, Bodie, Luther Ray, Tammy, Mari Beth, Marva, Edna Earl, and Inez have been known to whip a man's butt for less than that.

RULE 3: Don't order a bottle of pop or a can of soda; this can lead to a beating. Down here it's called Coke, even if you want a Pepsi, Sprite, or Dr. Pepper. Got it?

RULE 4: Texas women don't fancy the smart mouth Yankees. Just remember, they all have Big brothers and Bigger daddies.

RULE 5: Don't show allegiances to any other school football team but the Longhorns or Aggies. All the others are a bunch of candy asses who play Wyoming every week.

RULE 6: Don't call us a bunch of hicks. Most of us are better educated than you and a whole lot nicer to boot. We just talk that way to piss you off.

RULE 7: Yes, we know the humidity is high; just quit complaining, spend your money, and go home.

RULE 8: No, the state symbol of TEXAS is not the orange and white highway barrel. This road construction is ticking us off too.

RULE 9: Don't go to the Cracker Barrel and order toast. If you do this, everyone will know you're from Nebraska. Just eat the biscuits like GOD meant for you to do. And do not order poached eggs. No one from the Texas eats eggs poached.

RULE 10: Don't try to talk with a Texas accent if you don't have one or use regional idioms you can't possibly understand. Nothing makes us madder.

RULE 11: Don't be telling everybody how much better it was back home. We're not going to change to make you happy. So if you don't like it here, Delta is ready when you are!

RULE 12: Our food isn't overcooked; yours is undercooked.

RULE 13: Down here, "Kiss my ass" is a perfectly acceptable way to close an argument. You can't get more closure than that.

RULE 14: Flirting is a Texas tradition. It doesn't mean you're going home with someone later. It doesn't mean the person flirting with you is even interested. It's all just practice.

Rule 15: Take your hat off when you say the words "Tom Landry."
