Torchy's or bust.

Graduation rates, literacy rates, you name it. Plano's school system is pretty damn good. Similarly, Collin College (the local community college) is one of the best community colleges in the nation.

I was, at one point in time, advised that it's one of only two community colleges in the nation that Harvard accepts…

An oh by the way you can purchase a nice 3500 sqft house with pull for around 400K. All though the media likes to rag on Texas schools. Plano and Frisco have even handed school boards and high performing schools. BTW we also have a high density of ethinic restraunts including lots of Chinese, Korean and Indian. …

Yup : homeowner + fixed commute + tax beaks + carpool lane + silent torque + no gas stations + seoncd ICE car = best of all worlds.

Neat, misogyny and idiocy all rolled up into one. I call Poe's law on this one.

For whatever reason, Plano proper doesn't have a lot of black people. I went to high school in Plano about 10 years ago, and my school was 23% Asian at the time I was there. As it's a border-state, there's also a pretty decent Hispanic population.

Plano has a huge multi-cultural mix. It doesn't have a high % of African-Americans, but just on my street alone: Indian family 2 houses down, Muslim family next door, Hispanic couple next door, Russian family 2 houses down, AA family 3 houses down, Asian family across the street, and it goes on. That tends to be the…

Youth culture: I might add that the DFW area has, just off the top of my head, *nine* craft breweries, many of them award-winning. That adds considerably to the vibrancy of the scene.

The Bible? You sure about that one? I grew up in Plano and it's actually a diverse community...

Zenna @ Park and 75. Thai/Japanese/sushi joint. Happy hour from 3-7 pm daily. They also deliver until 3 a.m. and have a great and inexpensive tapas menu during happy hour.

I'll never understand the hate for suburban living - its often safe, clean, and a nice place to raise children. I roll my eyes when people extol the virtues of city living and relegate suburbia to a prison : "the houses look the same, the lawns, the walmarts!" News flash - the apartments you love aren't revolutionary…

I was comparing test scores, college readiness, and student:teacher ratios. All of Plano ISD's high schools have significantly better numbers than Torrance HS. I'm not trying to dig on Torrance (really, I'm not), but people making statements like "all schools in Texas suck because Texas" are being ignorant of the…

What about everything being about 2x as expensive in California? (Except for bud of course). Plano isn't great but it's doable. If Toyota makes you move here you'll probably move to Uptown, which is much more exciting and fun than Plano and only a half hour commute away. Texas gets hot but the people are friendly and…

We didn't post this before, as far as 3 pages of Google searching reveals (Gizmodo included the tip in a roundup of dryer sheet things, though).

I understand the satire, but can't understand all the hate from people who have never actually been to North Texas. Let's face it, most of the people moving to the new Plano location won't actually live in Plano. They will live in Frisco, Richardson, The Colony, Dallas, and some as far as Prosper when they see what…

Yeah, because better schools, lower crime, higher standards of living, and an affordable housing market doesn't mean shit to adults.

Everyone is giving Nicholas sh*t about the business cards, but business cards are the quickest way to exchange contact information with the widest range of client. If you're a free agent, you're fixing IT problems presumably because your client is not proficient with computers and/or electronics - it makes sense that…

This is cool and all, but let me be the first to say fuck this thing.

I used bacon grease for mine. Worked great and I got to eat all that bacon I cooked. Mmmmmm, bacon.
