We all know you don’t mess with Texas… and Texans aren’t messing around in driving a message home whether you’re a local or from out of town. If you come across the following signs, you may be in Texas and you may want to heed them.
The Texans behind these signs package up bluntness and humor as dry as the Texas desert in a friendly package.

If you come across this one and try to find out whether or not these nachos are one-size-fits-all, you can take advantage of the free wireless internet while you do so… Clearing your plate could take a while.
