1. Calling the state tree of Texas a Pee-Can Tree

This is probably the most egregious act of all. Pee-Cans are what we would call a porta-potty at the fair. The proper Texas pronunciation of pecan is [puh-KAHN].

2. Giving us a glass of unsweet tea

Another way to piss us off is to give us a glass of unsweet tea. Our grandmothers from birth put sugar in our tea and usually a whole bunch of sugar. So if you hand us a glass of unsweet tea, just expect to be wearing it.

3. Calling it a pickup truck

It is either a pickup or a truck, it is not both. If you like saying pickup truck, do you like saying "automobile car" too?

4. Complaining about our hot weather or lack of winter

This is Texas after all, what were you thinking? That the frozen tundra of Minnesota or New York was the norm for all 50 states. But you should be glad you are in Midland/Odessa and not Houston in the heat of summer. That is when the devil himself even complains about the heat.

5. Driving slow

We have covered this several times but people still don't get it. We in Texas are in a hurry for no reason, and we like it that way, so lead, follow, or get the hell out of the way if you are driving on Texas roads.

There are the main things that will piss off a person from Texas, so you have been warned to follow these rules, or else you might get something thrown at you.
