You say that, but where the Ohio Ocean separates Yankeland from the real Merica it does not stop the pale and pasty from the North from crossing the borders and invading the south.

We already whipped their arse and gained our nationhood. Being a gracious and welcoming people, we're glad so many of their best, their strongest, their most adventurous, are joining our family. They're Texas, too. That's another way Texas is different than the South. We're not characterized by racist assholes who think it's an insult to call someone Mexican.

Breakfast tacos > goddamned waffles

That's beyond any rational dispute. My God, I miss a good breakfast taco.

it's actually their land that you squatted on

Not really. It was sparsely populated, with only a very small nomadic American Indian population. Spain wanted to populate it and keep it under Spanish control, but the settlers who actually went and built the cities and roads and plated the crops didn't want to be under Spanish control, so they rebelled. It's pretty awesome history. You should read up on it someday.

I will say this: When Moses Austin was helping settle Texas with German and Dutch and other immigrants, he did encourage them to pretend to be Catholic when they really weren't Catholic. That seems dishonest.

"You all may go to hell, I'm going to Texas" is one of the greatest moments in American history, imo.


I heart Texas, man.

Then you should know that very few folks of Spanish descent were in Texas since before Irish folks started immigrating to America!

Well where was I going to find a smart-arse remark from that info?

As a side note, all this breakfast taco talk has me reconsidering as road trip next week. Gotta see how the Dogs look against Kentucky

WTF is this migas shite Austin/Whole Foods is trying to do to the breakfast worl?

It's gross.

Migas are far more authentically Mexican than more popular varieties of the breakfast burrito. I don't like them as much, either, but lots of people do. Generally, food actually from Mexico (with the exception of the tamale and their tortillas) are not as good as food that is more Texican or Southwest.

I went to college in Murfreesboro, TN and there were 2 Waffle Houses within 1 mile of each other on the same road. One on either side of the interstate.
