Yesterday, Rebecca posted something about Jeff Foxworthy’s comments on Utahans. It sounded similar to an email I received several months ago about Foxworthy’s comments on Texans. Well, I found those comments and decided to repost them here.

Disclaimer: Not sure if Foxworthy actually said this stuff. However, I did find a reference to it in the Odessa American.

  • If someone in a Lowe’s store offers you assistance and they don’t work there, you may live in Texas;
  • If you’ve worn shorts and a parka at the same time, you may live in Texas;
  • If you’ve had a lengthy telephone conversation with someone who dialed a wrong number, you may live in Texas;
  • If ‘Vacation’ means going anywhere south of Dallas for the weekend, you may live in Texas;
  • If you measure distance in hours, you may live in Texas;
  • If you know several people who have hit a deer more than once, you may live in Texas;
  • If you install security lights on your house and garage, but leave both unlocked, you may live in Texas;
  • If you carry jumper cables in your car and your wife knows how to use them, you may live in Texas;
  • If the speed limit on the highway is 70 mph — you’re going 80 and everybody’s passing you, you may live in Texas;
  • If you find 60 degrees ‘a little chilly,’ you may live in Texas;

Bonus: If you can identify the tree in the picture, you are probably a Texan.

What's on your mind?
