We need a new expression "Texas Man"

TiMSport · 03-03-2021, 08:35 PM

In addition to Florida Man. That's all I'm gonna say.

unluky · 03-03-2021, 10:52 PM

Sign me up. I'd wear it with pride and I don't even live there. LOL

Tommy-G · 03-04-2021, 07:38 AM

I dont know if you can out do our #FloridaMan

_X · 03-04-2021, 07:54 AM

And let me guess, Greg Abbott is your prime example of Texas Man?

Btw, isn’t this inherently sexist? A. Shouldn’t assume anyone’s gender and B. Women don’t exist or only men do crazy things? I cite crazy because that is the attribute most often afforded to “Florida Man”

Thats right, I have not attended my 2021 Human Resource training yet. MY BAD

unluky · 03-04-2021, 09:23 AM

I tell my GF, who loves to point out men's shortcomings in certain departments, "the world sure would be far more boring without men in it".

She has to agree. We might not make our beds perfectly each morning knowing no one else will see it till we do, but we sure can inspire laugher with our antics.

Who would know what you can't do without some idiot man trying it first just to see what would happen?? =)

M-technik-3 · 03-04-2021, 09:32 AM

Bout sick of the PC BS. FloridaMan is just that, if you want to start FloridaWoman than by all means.

TiMSport · 03-04-2021, 09:45 AM

Nah, I think we're good sticking with "man" in this case.

DETRoadster · 03-04-2021, 09:45 AM

There's only one way to settle this. To the Internet!....

March 4:

Florida Man Arrested for Throwing Cookie at Girlfriend
Florida Man Accused of Using Baby as Human Shield After traffic Stop

Texas Man Charged with Killing 12 Elderly Women
East Texas Man Charged with Stealing Neighbor's Valentine Gift from Mailbox

Based purely on the gravity of the situation, Texas takes this round. However, "Florida Man" is really all about the comedic insanity that is Florida and in that case I think Florida edges out Texas for March 4. Cleary we need more data.

Since you brought him up, the proper term for that dude should be "Texas person with disabilities" and not just physical. Lol.

Carry on.

Littlebear · 03-04-2021, 05:17 PM

Are you looking for a motto, like, "Texas, you're on your own down here!"?

Pls take this guy:

#floridawoman (pound Florida woman?) is a thing too.

I don’t think Texas man will be as good as Florida man. Y’all do stupid things but it’s the same stupid things. Florida man has CREATIVITY

pz619 · 03-04-2021, 07:28 PM

Florida Man is a legend and will always remain the GOAT.

The rest of us states are just playing for 2nd.

TiMSport · 03-08-2021, 01:57 PM

Florida Man is GOAT but here's an entry for Texas...
