I'm not exaggerating when I say that I laughed at that for a solid hour. It happened at the reception and I was sitting in my chair trying to contain my laughter for that entire time.
People unironically believe that Texans are a bunch of uneducated hillbillies. Like here it is, DFW has a population of over 7 million people, a job market that is absolutely exploding, tech companies are moving here en masse (and I have a professional job at one of them), and the state has the 10th largest economy in the entire world. But people still hold the belief that we're living in the 19th century wild west. I thought we were having an intellectual conversation when it turned out they were just impressed I could tie my own shoes, lmao.
That may honestly be one of the funniest things anyone has ever said to me. I still laugh about it from time to time. My dad said he learned a long time ago to lean into it, so he'll say "howdy" to people from out of state and also tell them that DFW airport has the largest stable in the world because we all ride horses to the airport. He said they believe it almost every time.

This is unironically true. When people find out I'm a gay from Texas they act like I survived the holocaust.

Imagine talking about VR on a weeding… NERD !
But you have to remember most people don’t give a shit about technology. My CS teacher wouldn’t able to tell you difference between newest Samsung s21 and s9 and he is one of those people who made papers about note 7 battery problems.
Also embrace that Taxes is big cow farm with some Mexicans that’s your thing it makes you unique. It’s your tourist attraction. If I would want to visit technology state I would go to comifornia, Singapore, Hong Kong or Tokyo.

Why you would visit anywhere for the technology?
Also, I remember there was a war between cowchads and sheepcels in the past because the latter didn’t like fences.

It’s was just a example. I would have visited Tokyo to find a noodle gf but I ain’t white to them. And I am also not black enough for black privilege fml
