She wants her cup of stars.

From what I've heard, the annoying parts of Texas are Dallas, San Antonio, Houston (especially), and all the smaller cities in Eastern Texas or up by Oklahoma. The one exception being Austin (which, like antarcticlust, I've heard has become a pretty cool, liberal town in the past decade or so.) West Texas is a different ballgame. A friend of mine lives across the border from Lubbock in Eastern New Mexico and says that the whole annoying redneck-cowboy-Southerner attitude is far less pronounced in that region. El Paso on the other hand is halfway to Arizona. Long story short: it's practically not even in Texas, hence no typical Texas bullshit. From what I've heard anyway.
