[quote=Anonymous]I was born in and grew up in Texas. Never held a gun in my life. Someone who met me recently said "where's your accent? I'd have thought you were from Connecticut." Everyone knows that "big" is a thing in Texas. If I got in my car in Houston and drove to El Paso, it would take over 10 hours. If you got in your car in DC, you'd reach Toronto in that amount of time, or Chicago going west. How many different accents and regional cultures would you encounter in all that driving? You just cannot generalize about Texas. It's a large and an incredibly diverse place. It's why you see the flag and the stupid Texas-shaped memorabilia. It's a way of unifying (some would say imposing conformity on) a vast territory with different ethnicities and cultures. [/quote]
