the epidemic of the white vehicle

so even though i haven't mentioned it per se, i'm sure it's been understood that there is an outbreak here in lubbock, tx. i swear it's a disease. and it starts with the color of your car.
actually, it probably starts in the womb but the car is where it's most noticeable.
i swear, every person here has lost their ability to think for themselves. people who are from here, love it here and could not imagine ever wanting to go any where else. i don't think they even visit outside of tx. if they do, they'll go as far as new mexico; think everything is the same every where and come back with a new sense of pride.
the people who are not from here originally get locked in to the cheap prices and fast food and are too sucked into this idea that this place really isn't that bad. maybe there's some brain washing that you can only overcome if you aren't that into football. i don't know but i do know that it's scary.
i'm more proud now than ever of where i'm from and the northeast's ability to allow freedom of thought and diversity of culture. it looks like the only way to rebel against this bible belt culture is to be homosexual and even then the only thing to actually do is to drink until you vomit crazy colors..
i'm really trying hard to not count down the days and hours and minutes that i have to stay in this state and remain positive for 2010's sake. but every day, i pass by this school, apartment complex and just random people's houses and i can see the plethora of white vehicles, i'm reminded of the inability for one to make their own decisions here. how the only thing that matters is status and who can drink the most, and how i can not wait to see cars of a different color.
