Review of Austin, Texas


DON'T BELIEVE THE HYPE - AUSTIN'S AWFUL
Star Rating - 3/28/2008
Austin may have been a nice place at one time and I'm sure it may still be one of the hottest places for wealthy young trendy posers to go strut their stuff but that's about it - not to mention it really is hot - grossly hot - even some days in the middle of winter...

This place is a fool's paradise and is degenerating into a dispicable Hell that will probably poison and destroy more and more of the world around it as it's population continues to explode and today's fools who don't even notice what needs to be cleaned up in this world run more and more rampant over this precious part of the planet and spawn more and more of their nasty, worthless offspring here (and beyond here)...

People are only happy here because they've never really experienced anything better being smack dab in the middle of Texas their whole lives or maybe they've just become retarded from staring at the neon lights, listening to the music and motorcycle engines too loudly, and have dulled their senses and common sense from breathing in the bad air and being a part of the obnoxious vibes for too long...

If you're coming here to live that "weird and cool Austin life" that every fool who's vacationed here thought it might be - be prepared for a life of stopped traffic on every single major and minor road that only leads you to more and more lines that you have to wait in - to get your groceries or eat out or whatever - with bums and charities acosting you for money at every moment you're stuck there and the only comfort available being the ability to put yourself in a drunken or drugged up haze or lock yourself inside your home (though you still have to listen to the endless, obnoxious traffic and revving motorcycle engines wizzing by)... It all just adds up to a growing frustration that leads to stripping you of your joy to live, your sex drive, and any positive attitudes you may have had before you came to the place, then probably ending with you being unpleasantly shocked at just how vile your soul can become as living here takes you to an ever growing state of rage and hatred and wanting to kill every person around you and praying for metoers or the return of Jesus Christ or whatever to just come and end it all - you'll probably end up flipping out on someone and getting killed over it as there is also no protection from police / etc - people ride around drinking their cheap beer and throwing their cans and bottles wherever - those who aren't already homeless or without a vehicle - they just walk up and down the interstates with their alcohol in hand - not that I blame them - I'm only happy here when I'm drinking as well...

"Keep Austin Away" is the phrase I'm coining for this crap hole... This planet and our future generations need everything exactly opposite what Austin represents and proliferates... If Austinites really are happy like they seem to act like they must be because "Austin is THE place to be" or so I've heard way too often before coming here, it must be because they find a lack of solitude and privacy, cramped in spaces, noise and heavy traffic, pollution and trash, and a diminishing quality of life amusing...

YUCK ! They should just scrap this city and start all over with it...
