Please. Mess with Texas.

Next time you're talking with someone from Texas, see if they can go 3 minutes without saying "coyote." And seriously, this includes the President. Now, everybody else on planet Earth pronounces "coyotes" as "cow-yo-tees." But your Texan friend will go out of his/her way to find a way to use the word and pronounce it as "kah-oat;" this is their way of saying "Wow, lookit me, I'm from Texas!! You should be impressed! Texas is awesome, we think we should be our own country!!!!" Hey guess what, so do we. I've never seen a group of people thump their chest so much for nothing (not totally true - Texas Toast is the shizzle.) But the "kah-oat" thing is their own secret handshake, their own way of saying "hey, YOU'RE WELCOME for George W. Bush, Anna Nicole and killing JFK!!!" Yes, I get it, you're from Texas. Wow, congratulations. I'm sure the kah-oats are soooooo proud!

Cow-yo tees? What's with the COW? We here in Jersey pronounce it KY- yo-dees. kyYOdee. Is that how you people say it? Cowyotee? Call me ignorant racist bitch but that's funny. Cowyotee.

You are aware that all of your comments are accessible by google. One Texan saunters, no, struts over to this hyeah Computah and googles in 'Coyote', just out of curiousity. Maybe his child had to pick a topic to do a report on.... Be prepared. It happens. It's happening to me!

sorry, Mr. Xmastime. My ex is from Texas. Maybe I'm just a little defensive of the way you say Cahyote.

#1: Fuck you, I'm from Texas.

#2: Maybe you should look into science before you knock the redneck brethren & me: Coyote (plural) is spelled exactly the same as Coyote (singular). In simpler terms: ki-yo-tee is plural; ki-yote is singular.

#3: I, (A TEXAN), haven't used that word since shopping for a coat at Paragon "Sports" in Manhattan, NY & read it on the label of the overpriced but warm jacket I bought.

#4: when you think you are ready to look coyote or a coyote in the eye & take it down, let me know- I will gladly show you how. Of course, if you cain't get your diction right, I might just also have to enlighten you to what a load of salt-rock in the ass feels like too.

#5: you ready?
