    Houston is one of the worst cities I’ve ever been to. Fuck you if you’re trying to walk anywhere, fuck you right in the heart. That includes if you’re walking to and from your car. massive truck

    Also fuck you are you trying to drive? You fucking crazy?

    I’ve hated only a small number of cities I’ve visited. Denver comes to mind, Los Angeles, Wichita Kansas, and if you took all the hate I have for those three cities, injected it with hgh and heroin, it would be a small shadow on the wall for the pure unadulterated rage I have for Houston Texas.

    Gary Indiana wasn’t as hostile. Fucking Ferguson during the protests wasn’t as hostile. And I saw a carjacking 10 minutes after stepping off the fucking plane thé last time I was there.

    Fuck Texas. Give it back to Mexico.

      I will very slightly disagree. You can live without a car in Houston in some areas so long as you work in the same area (or from home) or one nearby with bus service. I lived in the Montrose and could mostly walk/cycle to anything I needed.

      That said, most places in Houston are going to be a lot more difficult for that or impossible. Had I lived that close to the job that moved me to Houston, it would have been in one of the higher-crime-rate areas and not good for walking.
