Uhh. I grew up in Texas for a few years. The jock high school trope was, at least twenty years ago, extremely violent and extremely real. I hope things have gotten better but when I was a kid the only thing Texans cared about was football and god, in that order, and they were absolutely happy to beat the shit out of you if you didn't publicly display sufficient interest in those two things.
Some of the best people I have met were Texans and I have never been to Texas. You know what that means? Texas is good at one thing only: forcing the cool people to live somewhere else so we get to reap the benefit of their fine company.
Oh and I guess their style of BBQ is pretty good, but again, we can do that outside of the reactionary confines of Texas and its glassable panhandle.
Yeah, comrade. You think the dumb violent jock cultural center was LA? And it's not just Texas. Huge swathes of the USA abide by that "You will love God and Football or else" thing.

I'm sorry that happened to you but maybe it's more because you lived in fucking Texas.

I feel you but It's just not the same in the Midwest. People are a bit different here, especially closer they are to the urban areas.
