I have worked at this agency (in the article), as support staff (electrician), over a decade ago.

It was incredibly eye-opening for my then-late-twenties just how much waste... Reflecting now, it's still mostly unbelievable how much money is spent on database infrastructure.

A brother is now a politician in that same stupid state.

My good advice for remaining fellow Texians: LEAVE.

Nothing forces anybody (let alone the bottom 95% of Americans) to stay in the shithole they grew up in [–5th gen Texan, 2nd-gen Austinite; left a decade ago, following my smarter brother, exeunt].

"They" don't give a single fuck about you, as long as you stay out of their way. None. Not a single fuck.

they're there for culture; it's the neo-afghanistan lifestyle they want.

>neo-afghanistan lifestyle

I guess that explains all the jacked-up parking lot queens.

For security reasons I won't tell you which stupid one Brother drives, but it's literally the most ridiculous (and unreliable OEM), of course! It's a foot taller than He =P

I am not sure if you are alluding to a personal peeve of mine, but maybe?

Where to begin.. The big, ignorant, macho, highly confident guys with their mock pick'emUp trucks, glossy touch screens, leased batteries & proprietary BMS, Chinese parts, plastic gears, remotely hackable firmware and paper tiger frames 30% larger than reasonably necessary -- masquerading as Country Goodness and real trucks...?

Remember the old Jimmy Dean, "Country Goodness" ad? I think AI could take Sam Eliot's voice and make millions with that approach. "It's not the reliability that matters, not the dependency on opaque firmware and fact that you don't own it, not the harsh reality that you're driving a fake truck -- it's the symbol that matters, the statement, and you know this truck symbolizes what Americuh really means."

His stupid pussywagon literally has army-style&fluorescent gas canisters mounted on an inaccessible roofrack.

I mean... really ?!?! Free targetable incendiaries?!

Honestly I know they're madmax-fearing-"christians" in their approach to crowd-control, but are we at the point where we need to be boasting about gasoline reserves?

My attempt is different: I live in a workingclass neighborhood and drive paidfor vehicles and stay in my goddam lane. My camry gets 48+ legit city MPG here on puregas Tennesseean 87 octane.

What. the fuck. is going on. in Texas?

It kinda sounds like you’re the one with the chip on the shoulder.

[ProllyInfamous]

That's fair, but...

¿por qué no los dos?

I have to say you have an entertaining comment style, chip or no.

[ProllyInfamous]

I wear a pretty big hat, myself.

>You can take the boy out of Texas

>...but can you take Texas out of the boy?

Don't know why anybody wouldchoose'ta read me, but... it do be like that.
