Why I hate Dallas

/ discord

[@jordanrapport7562]

I grew up in Dallas. It sucks so much. I hate it. It’s the most boring miserable place there is. It really is a giant parking lot of corporate chains

[@shannonmaire]

I'm a Dallas native. After living in many other states, I have to conclude that I absolutely hate it here.

[@cheeseeater4578]

I love that shitty planning and corporatism has radicalised Jake

[@caseyzx]

as someone in houston i feel ya

[@holy.water.]

I grew up next to chicago, so when I visited dallas I thought it was the most beautiful city I’ve ever seen 💀 hell i’m moving down there the moment I graduate college lmfao

Dallas is the most beautiful city you've ever seen? Lmao. Get a passport. Just wait till you see Prague, Budapest and Vienna if you were impressed by Dallas. 🤣

[@eashanahluwalia9599]

I also found that if you have caramel skin Texans treat you like you’re subhuman which is ironic coming from knuckle draggers

[@d8042]

FIRST!! love ur videos

[@Achievementsxyz]

I moved to austin from Cali, been here little over a week and i fucking hate it. The drivers on the road are pretty much all maniacs. Semi trucks will speed right past you.. dumbasses in trucks hauling a 15ft trailer will zoom right past you at 85mph and cut you off. Makes perfect sense why insurance cost so much. The bbq is $30 a pound. Gas is cheaper, but you drive a mission to get from point A to B so you end up spending the same amount as cali.

[@chrisguzman-cf7zp]

Very true...Dallas is very segregated and boring

[@SS-qo3nt]

The segregation lies beneath the hello smiles - SO TRUE.

Yeah, as a Houstonian, screw the cowboys

If it wasn't about to explode into ww3 I would recommend like west/north Europe, the most beautiful towns and cities I've ever seen and the food and drink is next level. Oh and the women 🤌

[@clevercoins5360]

yeah ive lived in suburban ohio all my life so once I learned that in some places you could hangout with your friends and not have to drive for like 30 minuets I was kinda pissed

[@devonoknabo2582]

I love this. It's another classic jake rant video.

[@secretsound_]

I don’t live in Dallas but I live in San Antonio and we suffer from a similar fate. I like that San Antonio tries to go for a town feel *sometimes* but the cons here outweigh the pros as it’s mostly nothing but highway and parking lots. The city is also very… brown (as in the sun fries the grass here just not enough to be a desert even though it feels like one sometimes) And it’s inaccessible for people who can’t drive. It’s VERY ugly

[@RitaLady]

I'm from the upper midwest and hated Texas for the exact same reasons and many more...like the trash problem. Couldn't wait to get back.

[@januarysidra6166]

Aww, homesick Jake

[@SS-qo3nt]

Right on. I'm not a gamer, am a native Texan born in H town. I've lived in the northeast. When I came back and left H town for Dallas it used to be okay and when I tell people what you said by myself they minimalize it or avoid me but when I play your video out loud and laugh along with it they actually listen and laugh a little bit. But bottom line is ugly architecture with mud coloring is virtuous here, bare bones anything doesn't phase them, arts and symphony are the minority, C- grade college education is okay to them, and any "intellectual" conversation has to happen on the grounds of a university or else silence will descend 😂. My extended family never thinks of meeting up with me anymore for some of these reasons, and I think your video does a lot of good because It takes quite a lot of visits to any target area before moving house in order to understand what and whom you will be putting up with later. 0 to Pennsylvania and 0 to Texas in my book unless it's a vacation with a special event happening. I love the 4 seasons of weather American holidays are built upon and want to see them again.

[@ramencurry6672]

I grew up in Philly and live in the south. In my opinion the south is generally bland in comparison to the busier northeast.

I'm originally from Connecticut but I'd rather live in NJ than TX lol. I just like the vibe better. Southern NJ isn't even expensive. Taxes don't bother me one bit.

You alright jake

[@yourselfiegotleaked]

Ya I’m good

[@jordanrapport7562]

I am a Dallas native. I now live in Seattle, Wa. It’s beautiful and amazing here. You should move here. Lots of high paying jobs. It’s like the exact opposite of dallas. People here are smart. There is so much nature right at your finger tips. We have two national parks that are less than two hours from the city and you can take a ferry or bus. The public transportation is amazing. You do not need a car. The bad stuff you see on the news is greatly exaggerated. It’s actually safer than Dallas.

[@brittoncoil2518]

Hi Jordan! I’m born and raised in St.Louis, the moved to Los Angeles, then moved to Dallas and now I might be moving to Seattle. How do you compare the two cities? I’m worried about the Seattle freeze I always hear about

Im leaving seatttle to DFW 😂 this place is depressing and full of implants that ruined the real estate and politics. Done with this lib city

@@ilikefriedriceg2263 I spent 25 years in Dallas. It sucks. You wont enjoy the 102 degree heat in the summer and making garbage money. My old apartment in Dallas costs the same as my new apartment in green lake and they’re the same size. The traffic is worse. The drivers are assholes. You’re making a mistake.

nah texas gaming is a W if you play fortnite 💀💀💀

[@Empyre18]

I knew about how Texas didn’t have an income tax, but when I heard about the high sales taxes, I just had to groan and say “of course they do that.” Sales tax, the most regressive kind of tax which screws over poor people the most, is what they rely on. Texas gonna Texas. I’ve also heard the property taxes are outrageous too. It’s almost like you shouldn’t just look at your immediate paycheck when deciding if maybe you’re being dicked over by the state government.

[@yourselfiegotleaked]

Hadn’t even considered it from that angle, that the sales tax screws over poor people the most. Course Texas would do that.

[@davidpeaston8443]

You've described damn near every major city in America. The fact of the matter is, as people we can find a host of things to gripe about. It's just unfortunate that you chose to do a video on one of the most common. Because... Hell...everyone can find something $hitty about everywhere.

[@AmazingStoryDewd]

Wrong, I've been to other cities. Dllas is by far the worst.

[@davidpeaston8443]

@@AmazingStoryDewd That's your own opinion. But major consideration should always be taken about the person who's being critical and what led them to these cities in the first place. Stay where you're originally from and be silent.
