Guest The_Postman Posted March 9, 2004 Report Posted March 9, 2004 Plano, well, North Texas in general consists of 5 things you'll find everywhere. 1. A large highway running through the city/suburb thingy 2. A shitload of middle-class chain restaurants. I hope you like chain restaurants. Really, because finding nice restaurants outside of chain ones is gonna put a dent in your wallet. 3. A shitload of middle-class/upper-class chain stores! I hope you like the same stores everywhere. Need a Pier 1? There's one or more in every suburb/city. Got a hankerin' for some Best Buy? There's one in every suburb/city. 4. A shitload of snooty-ass rich white people who won't think twice about calling the cops on your shitty ride, just because it's not a Mercedes or BMW. I got followed home by the cops a couple of times because of this (back when I owned my crumby old Subaru). Oh and a quick reminder, if you see a 40-something white woman in an Escalade, remember, she has the right of way, no matter what. She'll kill you otherwise. 5. Incredibly obese people. While there are a lot of Ken and Barbies out here (you're gonna get tired of blonde chicks real quick), there are a metric ton (no pun intended) of morbidly obese people. It's like after 30 years of age all those Ken and Barbies just start gorging themselves. A trip to Dallas or Lower Greenville is nice, but remember, our bums are the stabbin' type, and the beggin' type. Hope you like being harassed on your way to clubs or bars! Ho ho ho. I carry this: I carry it with me in my coat pocket when I go to Deep Ellum. Plus it says Mod on it, nifty huh? 8 rounds of sub-compact bum-killin' justice! Cheers, and welcome to Plano! And remember kids, it shuts down at 10pm! Nothing to do after 10pm in Plano. No restaurants (outside of IHOP or Wendys or something...not real food). No shops. No clubs, and only a few dismal sports bars. Quote
spine Posted March 9, 2004 Report Posted March 9, 2004 Hmm, sounds nice, must go there some day... Quote
Fletch Posted March 10, 2004 Report Posted March 10, 2004 Guide To Surviving Plano: 1) High School kids in Mustangs are the alpha-males of Plano society. Kill one within the first week to gain respect from the rset of the pack. 2) Red lights are a suggestion to think about maybe slowing down if you kinda feel like it. Otherwise, gun your engine the second you see one and flick off anybdoy who gets mad at you about it. 3) Only pussies go when lights turn green. Dirty, rotten, shitfaced pussies. 4) Kohls. Nobody shops there. Nobody knows how they got there. They just kind of exist, so don't try to figure them out. 5) If you run into a girl of above average intelligence, pour salt in her eye and dump her out the side of your car at the city limits. Their kind is not appreciated. 6) Only losers use the light rail. Instead of public transit, buy the largest SUV you can find with the smallest miles/gallon rating. 7) Don't even try to go to a restaurant on Friday night. The entire civilization goes out to support the chain industry then. Instead, eat at Taco Bell. Don't go to East Plano. Only poor people live there, and they have diseases. Pay a small Mexican boy to carry your things there if you desperately need to go. 9) You can pick up small Mexican boys as ady laboreres at the shed behind Best Buy. Nothin finer than labor at 1 buck an hour. It's not illegal, cause they're not citizens! 10) Don't trust whitey. Quote
FrieChamp Posted March 10, 2004 Report Posted March 10, 2004 Yeehaw! Maybe someone should have told DD before he moved there He's probably just a pile of rubble in a burnt out car wreck on a Plano highway by now Quote
Guest The_Postman Posted March 10, 2004 Report Posted March 10, 2004 Guide To Surviving Plano: 4) Kohls. Nobody shops there. Nobody knows how they got there. They just kind of exist, so don't try to figure them out. I tried to understand what Kohl's was once. Mikey, Josh and I went into one. The over all confusion that ensued can only be played out in traditional Greek theatre. I still don't know what they are. Quote
Fletch Posted March 10, 2004 Report Posted March 10, 2004 I went to one trying to buy socks and came out with a shower mat. i still can't figure out how that happened Quote
spine Posted March 10, 2004 Report Posted March 10, 2004 But Plano's got to have one of those nice little history's from the wild west days, like an outlaw or mining town yeah? Tell me about it, would be interesting. Or is it a boomtown from the 50's or summin...? An old testsite for nuking? Asbest proving ground maybe? What is Plano's main production? Quote
Fletch Posted March 11, 2004 Report Posted March 11, 2004 it was settled by rich white people that didn't want to live in Dallas. now it's filled with... rich white people that don't want to live in Dallas Quote
