Shallowater, Texas is about to be roasted!
Why Roast Shallowater, Texas?
A while back we started using Shallowater as a default target on our morning show. I guess we were thinking why make all of the small towns around the Hub City mad, let’s just sacrifice one. We also had a friend there who constantly told us of all the busy-bodies and pearl-clutchers there who were always in everybody’s business. The fact is, I have many friends there, including a couple of semi-pro wrestlers. Until recently I also had a bunch of family that lived there until they came to their senses.
Why I’m Roasting Small Town Texas
Truth be told, I lived in a small Texas town for a couple of years and we know what that life is like. It’s very much true that if you go to the supermarket in pajama pants the rest of the town will know about it by lunch. It’s true that if you miss church people will notice. It’s also true that if something in town gets tore up, most people already know who’s kid did it. I have to tell you, living under a microscope in a small town is terrible!
Don’t Take It Personal Shallowater!
So Shallowater, do I really hate you? My answer is, how can I hate a place I have no intention of visiting and frequently drive around? It’s not personal, I dislike all small towns where they’re likely to hire coaches to teach and their wives to work in the office. I dislike places that have one town dog, and a every direction starts with “y’know over by the railroad tracks…”. I’m just not a big fan of a place where the closest you’ll ever get to the big city is a picture on a calendar at the dollar store. I swear it has nothing to do with the fact that your city hall looks like a place that used to sell used tractor parts. So no Shallowater, I don’t hate you….I hate the idea of you. Okay, this is all just a rib, so settle down.
