Rainbow forming between Austin and Houston

[fade]

I snapped this sequence of pictures as I drove from Austin to Houston this afternoon. It shows a rainbow forming. There are actually two (DOUBLE RAINBOW!), if you look closely.

 

[Allen who is Quiet]

Rainbows?

 

[phil]

My condolences for having to experience Houston.

 

[figmentPez]

What does it mean?

 

[MindDetective]

High humidity?

 

[bhamv3]

It means someone in Austin and someone in Houston now have pots of gold.

 

[ThatNickGuy]

Pfft. It's not double rainbow.

 

[figmentPez]

Pfft. It's not double rainbow.

Look closer.

 

[ThatNickGuy]

DOUBLE RAINBOW! IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL!

Pfft. It's not double rainbow.

You failed the "reading directions" part of the test.

 

[ThatNickGuy]

Yeah? Well you failed...your face. Yeah, that's right. That just happend.

I'm going to bed.

I ... live in Houston.

But Austin is the far nicer place. At least in my opinion.

What? No, you live in Louisiana?

When did this happen?

I thought I had a good grasp of where most people here live.

It means either leprechauns are coming, or gay people. Both are beneficial! Leprechauns bring pots of gold, and gay people raise property values.

Not anymore. I quit my professor position in Louisiana and took a job in Houston as of the beginning of the summer.

 

[Charlie Don't Surf]

As someone that had to leave Austin for a job in Houston too - fuck Houston

 

[LordRendar]

Seems that Houston has a ....... Problem.

It's a double rainbow. So...gay leprechauns.



EDIT: Fun fact: I typed 'gay leprechaun' into YouTube's search, not expecting anything. Cripes, you really CAN find anything on the internet.

I'm not sure if those people know what gay means?

 

[ThatNickGuy]

Yeah, it's a pretty stupid - and partly offensive - video. Of course, this is the same guys that did the really unfunny, offensive Retarded Policeman videos.

 

[Necronic]

I thought this had something to do with a convergence of Austin and Montrose.

For all the Houston hate, if you can't find a good time in Houston, you will never find a good time anywhere.

 

[figmentPez]

I've lived near Houston for 19 years now, and the only things I dislike are the humidity and the fire ants. The city and the people seem nice enough to me.

Pbbbt. I moved here from Louisiana. This is dry. In fact, when I go back to Louisiana, it feels like I'm swimming through the air.

 

[Cajungal]

That is exactly how I describe it! Today was gnarsty. Where's that damn cool front we were supposed to get last weekend?

 

[Shegokigo]

Try going almost 6 months with no more than 5 minute rains every 2 weeks....

 

[sixpackshaker]

Houston and Red Stick have the same climate, we've just had 2 years of drought. Generally it rains daily during the summer here.

I lived in this area for 6 years before now. Texas is a lot of things, but it ain't got crap on south Louisiana in terms of humidity.

qft.

You have everything you could want in houston (including jobs!), and its all cheaper. You just have to own a car.

 

[fade]

Houston is cheap, I'll give it that. Which is weird considering all the money here.
