You don't go there for natural splendor or the climate.
Said like somebody who's never watched a thunderstorm roll in over the plain.
The beach is a turd, and you're surrounded by 500 miles of polarized right wing fundamentalists in every direction.
You go to church much? How much time have you spent actually in small towns, chatting up folks?

People like you are why Austin sucks: cookie-cutter upper-middle-class self-righteous pricks who think they've moved to the mecca of cool and haven't realized that they're chasing the same sort of vapid materialist views of self-worth they decry so much.
Texas is for people who know how to make a living, form communities, and soldier on.
To your latter remarks. That just sounds like "life" to me. For instance, if you were moving on to, say, California, I'd tell you to enjoy the astronomical cost of living, relentless taxation, real drought issues(most of Texas is drought free as of this year), catastrophic earthquakes, mudslides, wildfires...

ha, wow, living up to your handle! There's some Texas hospitality! Knives out!
For certain values of cool, Austin IS the mecca, but I have no use for it in my life.
You can soldier on through the allergies, drought, heat, toll roads, and endless expanses of private property, I'm moving on.
