Schlitterbahn as in the one in Texas? If so, I love love love that place! So much fun.
You know you live in Texas when... you tan in the bed of a truck wearing jeans, boots, and a bra; you play chubby bunny in a truck at eighteen; you think boys in wranglers are hot; you plan on making a redneck swimming pool and swimming in it; you go camping and sleep on a tarp, not bothering to pitch a tent; you listen to songs like "Country By the Grace of God" on repeat; you'd rather live in the country than in the city; you will park a long ways away if it means your car/truck stays in the shade.

Tyler: I mean I've got cool fans. I've got fans that I'm a fan of. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [in response to where he gets his insight from] Tyler: You know, I couldn’t tell you. It’s hard to look at what it is that makes me, me, because I’m me and I’m busy being me so looking at what’s making me, me is a really odd, confusing room of mirrors.

wow... i don't do any of those except park in the shade lol but nonetheless very amusing. the other ones are way too hickish and red-neckish for the city dweller that i am (originally from houston, in austin for college). i am also asian, and i don't know of any redneck asians (that would be very interesting yet bizarre). here in college there are a lot of people who are from small to midsized towns who find austin to be drastically different in culture (liberal- we were one of the few blue counties in texas [whoo!], diverse, lots of vegetarians, etc.).
quote: Cool! But uh, what's Schlitterbahn? lol
Schlitterbahn is German for "slippery road" and is this huge waterpark in Texas with two locations. the original one in New Braunfels is fed by spring water from a creek. it is supposed to be awesome. i saw a thing on the "10 best waterparks in the US" on the travel channel when i was abroad this summer, and i learned that schliterrbahn has this water rollercoaster that also takes riders uphill. it also has one of those surfing machine deals. i shockingly have never been to Schlitterbahn (neither the new braunfels or the south padre island one)... my family went without me this past summer while i was doing something else or was somewhere else.
