I don’t understand all the people living in UT who feel the need to advertise that they once lived in Texas.

Zach Morris

They do it everywhere. Not just in Utah. They do it here in Florida too.

I’m sure they do. It’s a very strange insecurity that they do a solid job of masking as pride.

Zach Morris

Welcome to Texans, they're more conceited than the French

Dissenter

7/19/18 8:27am

Uh what? In my experience, it’s very much real pride

Real confidence and pride is never in your face and obnoxious. It’s quiet, subtle and has taste.

Zach Morris

Like these?

JohnnyComeLately

Those are also stupid but considering I’ve seen them significantly less than Texas stickers I take more issue with Texas

Zach Morris

7/19/18 8:36am

Sounds like this is a lot more of a "you" thing than a Texas thing

I concede, placing bumper stickers all over your vehicle educating others that you lived in Texas

Zach Morris

7/19/18 9:15am

Maybe (just maybe!) people do it for reasons other than trying to impress others

buffgato

People put stickers on their car for all kinds of things they like

Hey man, those are real borders. They’re drawn on a map. 🙂

It's definitely not insecurity.

Tortillero

Having lived there it is a weird sense of pride.

It's because people don't usually move away from Colorado.

7/19/18 8:29am

But Texas is so neat that we have all these examples of people who have left?

Zach Morris

7/19/18 8:32am

Are there stats to back that up? My wife is from Colorado.

JohnnyComeLately

7/19/18 8:34am

Colorado is BOOMING. I'm not going to google the stats for you.

You remember the Alamo?

It’s the culture in Texas. It still has a strong Republic of Texas vibe

It is because Texans are mostly proud of the shape of thier state.

ditch

7/19/18 8:31am

It is a cool shape and I like Texas just fine but all the insecurity in the form of bumper stickers

Zach Morris

7/19/18 8:34am

I don't know why pride needs to be viewed as insecurity

Skeptical Optimist

7/19/18 8:51am

That’s fair but if everyone began advertising via bumper sticker what states they’ve lived in

Zach Morris

7/19/18 9:00am

It doesn't strike me as all that weird

Skeptical Optimist

7/19/18 9:04am

Ha! My daughter has a sticker of the Texas flag on her car, and yes, she does have Utah plates. She held out putting on

I don't get why you choose to see that as insecurity

buffgato

Wearing BYU clothing isn't a sign of insecurity. It just means you like BYU.

If you spend any amount of time in Texas you’ll see why that is. Do you see the Utah flag hanging throughout a grocery
