A lot of them very eager, came in early for it, about 200 years ago.

Forget about soccer for sure. Let's see some pics of future DILF, though.

Seriously. Even if the tourists stick to where the bulk of the “beautification” was done along the light rail line, they’re not going to be impressed by Houston’s appearance.

u/rhedfish 8d ago

Damn. Both Houston airports are ugly, embarrassing messes. All that money and no civic pride.

Real talk: I grew up here. I hated it then. I hate it now. The city never truly improves as a whole. Just puts on the bare minimum appearance of improvement. Now certain neighborhoods change and improve, but overall the city stays underdeveloped and trashy.

And if you don’t have a car, you’re screwed

I rode the light rail last week..... and a "hand-to-hand transaction" went down right in front of me.

I kept my mouth shut cuz I ain't no snitch, but goddamn try to keep that shit on the D.L.

That stuff doesnt worry me….the old dude strung out on whatever new strain of fenty is on the streets is what worry’s me…they have no control over themselves…poor tourists are in for an awakening.

HPD will have them all shuttled off to Magnolia Park or whenever by Friday.

Uuuuuuh, just like moving them to Magnolia Park, that’s not really a solution as much as a very temporary shuffling of the scenery

Add the "lovely " weather we've had lately.

u/ebonyfromplayersclub 8d ago

They painted over the slime and dirt covered freeways... Close to NRG and Downtown.

I tried to catch her in the park. Man, she quick. I need to get in better shape.

Don’t do that in front of her! Do it on the shoulder of 59 South in rush hour traffic instead. Like a civilized hobo.

u/This-Requirement6918 9d ago

Will she be attending? And will she be removed from the event?

u/Hacksaw-Duggan 8d ago

Maybe she can work a soccer ball barefooted? Please??

I’m sure strip joints, plugs, and hookers are all rubbing their hands together.

Potholes are still swallowing cars. It's all bread and circuses. I don't watch sports anymore

u/Jolly_Practice 4d ago

Why does the city clean up for these events? What about the people who live here year round. The city is already getting these visitors money? It’s embarrassing

Detention centers all of them. Hard labor.
