Hurricane Sandy came up in discussion today and though Texans are obviously empathetic, they face more severe hurricanes more consistently. They of course brought up Hurricane Ike which took a heavy toll on Houston in 2008. As we were discussing the difference in geographic landscape (vertical vs. horizontal) between New York City / Eastern seaboard and Texas, my coworker (the same one who gave me the Subway coupon), turned to me and said,
"Well you know what we say here in Texas Mala..."
"No, I actually don't. What do you say?"
"A hurricane is just like a cow pissin' on a flat rock."
"Wow."
Silence. And there you have it folks, you can't make this stuff up.
Moooooooooo!
Well, you know what they say in New York: A hurricane is just like a homeless guy pissing in the Subway.
ReplyDeleteSharon, you need to copyright that phrase. It has to be a tagline for someone somewhere. MTA anyone?
DeleteWow, indeed. I've actually never heard that...maybe it's just some Texans that say that?
ReplyDeleteLove this cow nose...makes the post a million times funnier. With the rate NYC is going, we might be taking on the same phrase soon.
ReplyDeleteAmazing I laughed out loud...because Joe said last night it makes a jack rabbit wanna kiss a hound dog :) and there you have it southern folks!
ReplyDeleteBoo the expressions here are incredible! And they think they're normal. :)
