Being from Texas automatically means you know certain things that people from other states just don’t. It means some things you consider obvious are truly baffling to people from out-of-state. Here are 16 questions you can only answer if you’re a Texan (even if you may get annoyed or tired of doing so.)
- Is everything really bigger in Texas?
Flickr/stevenm I don’t know, why don’t you ask Big Tex? Does your state have a giant mascot at the fair?
I think this 3 pound cinnamon roll answers that question pretty well, too.

- Is country music all you listen to?
Flickr/felipeneves I’m sorry, I can’t hear you over ZZ Top’s guitar.
- Do you ride your horse to work?
Flickr/abqtrucker
Flickr/justinmosebach No, but they are our preferred method of transportation to the drive-thru and ATM.
- Is the BBQ really that good?
Flickr/wallyg …I think this speaks for itself.
- Is high school football big there?
Flickr/davidclow It’s only our religion.
- Does everyone own a gun?
Flickr/criminalintent I don’t think this safe is big enough for most people.
- How do you survive the heat?

- What is Tex-Mex?
Flickr/magtravels I’m sincerely sorry if you haven’t experienced every kind of Mexican food piled on a plate and smothered in queso.
- Do you talk slow because of your accent, or are you just stupid?
youtube/Awesome We all remember how thrilled Sandy was in this episode. Don’t mess with Texans, y’all.
- How hot can winter possibly get?

- Is “y’all” a word?
Flickr/gregorymorris It’s a way of life.
- How many pairs of cowboy boots can one person own?
Flickr/Bootsendra What can we say? They were made for walking.
- Just how high can you jack up a truck?

It feels pretty darn special to be from such a unique state that only we know certain things about. What other questions can only Texans answer? Tell me in the comments below!
