My mom was visiting her brother recently in California--you know, the place with the record-setting drought? And he starts showing her his flower garden, and my mom asks what his watering days are.

Because in Texas, you see, we understand what the word drought means, and we have watering restrictions--addresses ending in 1 water on Monday only, and only for ten minutes, and only between the hours of 7 pm and 9 am so it doesn't just evaporate in seconds... And this isn't a new or emergency measure, that's just what we all do in the summer every year, and sometimes during the winter too, because them's the rules.

And she describes what she means, and he has absolutely no idea what she's talking about. Because there is no such thing in CA, because they are idiots.
