I thought I'd lighten today's mood with a gallery we came up with a few years ago of automatic red flags you should look out for in your daily conversations in Lubbock. Most of us can spot an outsider from a mile away based on the way they speak about our city.

Lubbock isn't perfect, but it's OURS to poke at. Take a chill pill before you scroll through this silly gallery. I don't want anyone to get their panties in a wad.

If I'm honest, I'm so distracted by the news today that it's taken pretty much all the gas out of my engine. I'm just scraping an article together and moving on. Be gentle, friends.

If you're having a cruddy day like me, you might get a kick out of this silly stuff.

23 Things People in Lubbock Say or Do That Are Automatic Red Flags

If you run into someone in Lubbock who says or does any of these things, you may want to just walk the other way.

Do you have any red flags to add to the gallery? Feel free to drop them in the comment section and send me an email at Chrissy.Covington@townsquaremedia.com.

Fingers crossed I'm less cranky tomorrow. If you're struggling to understand the world right now, you aren't alone. I hope it doesn't affect your productivity like it has mine. I'm just done with today. I'm focused on pizza, ice cream, and adult beverages on the couch in my cozy living room. They are calling my name.

Keep scrolling for more things to take your mind off of politics in the galleries below, and cheer up, Charlie. It can't rain every day.
