I came to Texas this week for a vacation. Power has already been out here for 6 hours so far and was blinking on and off last night. Getting strong 3rd world vibes down here...

I'm gonna call bullshit. Is this being reported anywhere? I know it would because it has been before. And if not I doubt you have or will provide any proof of it.

Not sure why you would lie about something like this unless you're just looking to shit talk Texas.
