  • "There's usually more bats"

    So true

  • Sounds like an alright place! I wanna go :p

  • You need clouds to rain :(

  •  O.o I feel like people are talking bad about Texas Its great in Texas and do you forget it!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • You forgot the F1 racing complaints haha

  • Hahahaha! Every one of these: so. true.

  • this is cool. some of these are a hit or miss. this one is good! there is one listed here on this thread that they mentioned just to get attention and that one sucks... suckie wannabees

  • It aint sh*t to say that we need rain, man. Just to clarify.

  • @artsyfartsy1998 for sure we do

  • TACOS TACOS TACOS!

  • Love Austin. Not all is true. But Sh*t IT Security Guys Say is pretty hilarious. And it is based in Austin, TX.

  • This already exists...it's called Slacker.

    

  • Oh man I love Austin :)

  • As some one who was born and raised in Austin i cant belief they left out "As some one who was born and raised in Austin"

  • As someone who was born and raised in Austin this is more of a "Shit people who have moved to Austin say".

  • Great job guys! There are some more big ones to add but overall pretty accurate! Can't wait to see a follow up!!

  • That one guy talks exactly like Badger from Breaking Bad.

  • All of you people are douchebags. Who cares wtf the vid says, how accurate it is, and your personal feelings on the matter. The video is funny, and you people are stupid. And I hate you. Especially Ben.

  • TACOS!

  • I hear rain comments like every day

  • I'm born and raised, I hear some of this...

  • Heard every one...

  • AUSTIN USED TO BE COOL MAN RIGHT BEFORE YOU GOT HERE WAS WHEN IT STARTING GOING DOWNHILL

  • Where's Sieben?

  • TACOS! but seriously. manchaca has an a at the end. c'mon austinites.

  • @chelseamuse72 its a navaho word. the a isnt supposed to be pronounced.

  • @chelseamuse72  No!! Born and raised, a is silent! ;)

  • shit people from austin say: "I'm not a hipster." "Fuck (Obama/Ron Paul)! Vote for (Ron Paul/Obama)!"

  • so great, such talented guys

  • Born and raised in austin. There is no other way to say manchaca or manor rd.

  • You forgot about recycling and wearing hemp.

  • I have said almost all of these. except the ones on beer.

  • Wimberleys finest.. haha

  • didn't the civil engineer who designed the freeways in Austin kill himself? I'm not trying to be a dick, just trying to confirm something I've heard countless times.

  • @yashespatel yes. it was his first design and it was such a failure, he killed himself. Or so I've been told...

  • Hah I never get over this. As a true, nonnative Austinite, who has lived here for 8yrs, doing my part to keep up the good vibe, I'd say that one reason this city rocks is because, for the most part, we aren't always so judgmental. Sometimes it take getting out of a city to really appreciate a good thing. Austin isn't cool because you were born here, its cool because we don't have to be too cool for skool to actually be interesting. Maybe try NY. Maybe THEY will be impressed you were born here.

  • @KestralWolfe "As an Austin native, I was born here so...blah, blah, blah...Californians, blah, blahblahblah...What you think doesn't matter. I mean, I was born and raised here, so I should know."

  • Comment removed

  • Who's the guy who keeps talking about rain? He's hot.

  • it should be called "shit people post on youtube as comedic content that we know will start controversy over what we're joking around about"

  • It's never been "Guadalupay" and it NEVER WILL BE. It's Guadalupe as in 'loop'. I'm an 8th generation Austin (since 1836), my family was some of the very first ones here and it is 'loop'.

    And it's 'Burn-it Can't You Learn-it", and NOT BurNETTE Road.

    The stuff they say sounds like the 19 year old transplants from California and New York, not real Austinites.

    This needs Closed Captioning for those of us over 60 with hearing disabilities. I couldn't understand half of what they said.

  • @lmdw I laughed so hard at this entire comment oh god A+

  • @lmdw He did say Guadaloop...

  • Lived there my whole life. Pretty accurate.

  • This is so awesome. Anytime people come visit me, they always say I'm wrong for not pronouncing it "Guadalupay".

  • @BrionneV It's "loop' and not Guadalupay" believe me. I'm 8th generation Austinite and its always been loop not lupay.

  • There needs to be a video called: Shit people that aren't really from Austin but just moved here and are trying too hard say.

    Example -

    "Dirty 6th for tourists, I go to 5th (with the rest of the people that have lived here for about a year.)"

  • You forgot "right on"

  • This is more like "Shit some trustfund kid who just moved to Austin says"

  • Lady Bird Lake is a man made reservoir for the CO River right? Someone help me out here. I am surprised there was nothing about going to play Disc Golf, Record Stores or Bad Traffic,

  • one problem with this video: If u hate sxsw you're probably trying too hard to go against the grain. we call our city the "live music capital of the world" so COME ON. sx brings in so much revenue and so much talent that we get to discover way early in the game. if ur an austinite and u hate sx u must not be a music lover and u prob need to get over yourself.

  • "It never rains in Austin" that is like all we say!!!!

  • "It's called 'Guadaloop.'"

    YES!

  • @zattacks Because it IS! And my first place to live after graduating from -- UT -- of course, was on Manchaca (MANSHACK).

  • @Robinroxaustin Thank you! You're right, its Manshack!!!

  • OMG! I've been out of Austin for a year & a half and this reminded me how AWESOME Austin is! I can't wait til the end of the year when I'll be back. Thanks for the awesome video.

  • <3 this video. I wanna see a "Part II"!

  • This video is so true, hahaha

  • THIS SUCKS I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT AUSTIN PEOPLE SAY.

  • Comment removed

  • i was born in austin and im still here half this shit is what we say

  • @PureGamingClanPC I was born in Austin long before you were...and we said different shit. But equally cool and weird. Something for every generation. :-)

  • good start, try again in 5 years...

  • Love the rain guy...

  • God I love Austin <3

  • you forgot, "Southby...that's for tourists"..."I really prefer to by local"....."I was BORN here...cool huh?" ..... "The cops don't care if you smoke pot"...."This place serves the best (insert mexican dish) in town"...."Not a lot of people know about it"...."I never go to Wal-Mart"...."Shop local"..."That's Austin for ya".

  • I was born and raised in Austin and I'd have to say they forgot "Yeah so I get 10% off everything with my Go Local Card"

  • Man-SHACK! "A second office, called Manchac (a French work meaning a strait, a pass, or a rivulet), ... post office, now spelled Manchaca (pronounced "Manshack")." Formerly, yet briefly it was spelled Manchac, and the pronunciation stuck. Not exactly anglicanized.

  • If those guys are skipping stones on TOWN (aka lady bird) Lake, it IS a river.

  • only thing that got left out: "you wanna go to circle c and play disk golf?"

  • Hahaha! It's like you recorded everything I hear in a day.

  • I've said a ton of this shit

  • This video is the shit, these guys are HILARIOUS!

  • @worthless420 You think yer bedder 'n me? (Charlie ftw!)

  • @onlyrevolutions2010 CHARLIE HODGE!! I'm a member of SNATCH

  • shoulda had a comment about Leslie!

  • I've said five of those things...*sigh*

  • Hilarious but I think they forgot some things like.. "my kombucha batch tastes funny" and " have you tried that new raw foods bar on 8th street?"

  • No, but seriously, there's usually a lot more bats. Let's go get some breakfast tacos. Maybe we'll see more when we get back.

  • Yes...we do complain about the lack of rain....

  • @taylormc15 @jmysl1 I lived there too!! from 2007-2008. My old roommates and I recognized it for the same reasons! the kitchen and fireplace!! so hilarious

  • Ah! my best friends and I lived in that exact house in college!! On Avenue F.

    Do you guys live there now?

  • I made the same comment about the lack of bats.

  • Comment removed

  • @knotightul, really,? "there's usually a lot more bats," "I hear Stevy Ray Vaughn ate here," "It's pronounced (May-ner),etc." can be said anywhere? I think not.

  • Lol, I am from Texas and this is hilarious!

  • EFFING BRILLIANT!! Need to add Frisbee golf and smoking a joint at the Barton Creek greenbelt!

  • this is amazing! "TACOS! TACOS! TACOS! TACOS!" perfect.

  • It should be "I only drink Pabst."

  • @ jetwarrior I believe Lubbock is a better fit for LA Dumbfaces and Johnny Dallas they actually need a Razzoo's. I will never leave Austin, but I will protect it from all who try to ruin it.

    @theadarken it's Johnny Dallas.

    @loopytexmex indeed I am a proud member of S.N.A.T.C.H. Tiberious Dawn lives on!

  • Wow, I knew these kids would get big. (I suppose that's also something Austinites say.)

  • i live there and most of its true....

  • "is that rain?" lol

  • You forgot: "Dude, the Frost Tower was totally built by the Illuminiati" - "But I LIKE being single right now" - "I'm looking for a job as a video game designer" - "Um, you know that Tamale House doesn't make tamales, right?" - "I heard that like, 1 out of 4 people in this town have herpes" - "This is the worst queso EVER" - "Yeah, my band's playing South-By, Tuesday, 10 AM, Amy's Ice Cream" - "I knew about roller derby before there WAS roller derby" - "This tap water smells like turtles"
  • @mandaclair This tap water smells like turtles JESUS CHRIST OMG

  • Comment removed

  • @ themex "Yep you have nailed it.

  • hahaha I love the rain dude :)

  • Um. Donde esta el Spanglish homies? @themex is totally right.

  • And then you take a right on I-35

  • this should be shit white austinites say. also the whole "this city needs more bike lanes" has all of my rage. ALL OF IT!

  • Check out my video for SHIT GUYS SAY PLAYING VIDEO GAMES

  • I left Austin 10 years ago, but some things never change, obviously!

  • LOL

  • Anybody wanna go to Magnolia Cafe for breakfast.

  • I think all the hipsters should move to Yorktown, TX. The haunted hospital was featured on Ghost Hunters, and they have a place that serves pizza now.

  • LOL LOVE THIS!! HAHAHA!

  • I swear I've seen the fat guy around somewhere.

  • True Austinites know "Austin is over!". Dont move here, the LA dumbfaces, and Johnny Dallas's are ruining it. Try Lubbock I hear its nice.

  • @worthless420 What the hell is a John Dallas?

  • @worthless420 Uh, last time we were in Lubbock, there were a lot of dust storms, douchebags, and a lot of people with the same voice as the comic book guy from The Simpsons, talking about how bad the music scene has gotten.

  • @ninjapimp2181

    lubbock's a shit-hole!

  • @worthless420 Unless you're going to Texas Tech, don't do it.

  • @worthless420 I bet you're in the organization known as S.N.A.T.C.H. :-)

  • @worthless420 Lubbock, Hahahahahahahaha. Obviously, you've never been.

  • @katmoha1

    lubbock is such a complete shit-hole :P, I literally wouldn't wish it on anyone, even people I didn't like

  • The number one thing TRUE Austinites say is "Austin is over!". Go back to California!!!

  • what is the girl saying at 0:34?

  • @bestavoided "does this have gluten in it?"

  • @bestavoided "Does this have gluten in it?"

  • So much like! I miss Austin. There needs to be some Barton in here.

  • There needs to be something about manchac, because we all know if you say "manchaca" you're not from Austin.

  • @ginaadaniel Pretty sure that was in there. Also, anyone who doesn't know how to pronounce Mueller correctly is not a true Austinite.

  • @ginaadaniel it's in there.

  • Was that Robert Plant?!

  • "let's go to the greenbelt"

  • "end of an ear is so much better than waterloo"

  • People in Austin drink SHINER duh

  • @CherryBlossomGirl999 Yeah we do! Lone Star is nasty!

  • What is this "basket" "ball" you speak of?

  • More like "Shit People Who Moved To Austin Say"

  • @themex Yeaaah... as someone who was born here... this is more like 'shit you'd hear from those californians who moved in here about 15 years ago and never left'

  • @KestralWolfe: "I was born here" should be in there. I swear I hear that once a day in Austin. 

  • @KestralWolfe I was born here too, this is cliche for a reason; otherwise people wouldn't really get it. So quit acting like one of those "Californians" and get over your douche bag self.

  • Comment removed

  • @KestralWolfe I was also born and raised in Austin and I thought this was hilarious. I think that you are being slightly pretentious. Are you from North Austin...?

  • @suckaMCbia No, he's from Westlake :P

  • @suckaMCbia Probably ROUND ROCK. ew

  • @KestralWolfe i so appreciate you. the first thing i thought after seeing this was "wow, they have to be friends with only people from california..."

  • @themex SO TRUE

  • @themex From a native, you nailed it.

  • Mostly nailed it but demand a sequel. @rdd2114 pretty nailed the remaining. If the weather keeps up, probably be adding, "I use to remember there being a lake called Travis."

  • "I make YouTube videos for a living but I'm totally not a trustifarian"

  • ugh

  • standing by Barton Springs and saying "The water is SOOOO COLD!".

    It's pronounced "BERnit" (Burnet)

    Microbrew, Fireman's #4

  • "Born and raised..."

  • HAH!! I think I've said ~80% of those things before :P

    YAY AUSTIN!! The tiny blue oasis in a sea of red ^_^

  • Don't Move Here

  • Born and raised in Austin, good thing I grew up in the hood, these guys are too feminine

  • haha i loved this XD

  • im not really religious im more spiritual XD HAHA YES!

  • Austin is not all white, its just very segregated.. Believe me, I'm from Austin..

  • Spot on! "you got that dog from a shelter, right?"

  • Austin was great until assholes from Dallas and Houston started moving there. They moved to Austin to get away from those shit-holes, then decided they should make Austin a shit-hole, too. Austin is now dead by 10pm every night because these douches moved in near 6th street, then bitched about the noise. Fucking. Retards.

  • @onlyrevolutions2010 wow, angry.

  • No "I'm definitely voting for Ron Paul"??

  • "We need rain."

    Truer words, never spoken.

  • so in texas, hipster faggots drink lone star and not pbr?

  • @elektrogeist Oh there's plenty of PBR consumption, Lone Star is just cheaper, and as the saying goes: "it takes a lot of your parents money to be a hipster".

  • @elektrogeist Nah. In Texas everybody drinks Lone Star.

  • @gooferino

    Dos Equis or bust.

  • Mimas?

  • 0:51 turn on captions."jewish thrity six in any way this extreme"

  • "Austin was so much cooler in the 90s." That's funny. In the 80's I used to say "Austin was so much cooler in the 70s."

  • Needs more weed references... Willie nelson, marley fest

  • half the times i've been there it's rained

  • Ugh. I miss Austin.

  • I love my town.

  • Perfect! Needs more food truck references, though.
