Ever feel like you’re being watched in Lubbock? Like the city itself seems to be making prolonged eye contact or something? You aren’t crazy, and it’s NOT just paranoia. The truth is that you’re a hot and sexy mama (or papa) and some things around here are deeply, obsessively into you. Who can blame them?<\/p>\n
The Potholes<\/p>\n
These guys seem to have a way of “pulling you back in,” don’t they? Lubbock potholes know where you’re driving, the speed you’re going, and the sound your suspension makes in the middle of the night when it’s screaming their name. It may be toxic, but it’s love, baby.<\/p>\n

It’s more than just hot in your car; it’s actually the sun trying its best to crawl through your windshield to hold you.<\/p>\n Photo by Rajiv Bajaj<\/a> on Unsplash<\/a>The Wind<\/p>\n “We gotta stage 4 clinger!”\u00a0 The wind isn’t just blowing your hair, it’s wearing your favorite hoodie, stealing important receipts, and brushing up against you like a jealous ex-boyfriend who “just wants to see how you’re doing.”<\/p>\n Photo by Jelena Senicic<\/a> on Unsplash<\/a>Read More:\u00a0What Led To The Closing Of CC’s Bar And Grill In Lubbock?<\/a>The Tumbleweeds<\/p>\n These guys show up rather dramatically. They roll across your path like a sign from the universe, and then disappear just as quickly. As soon as you think it actually meant something, they’re already halfway to Amarillo, hitting up the liquor store with a girl they swear is their cousin.<\/p>\n Photo by Luismi S\u00e1nchez<\/a> on Unsplash<\/a>The City Itself<\/p>\n Lubbock is much more in love with YOU than you realize. Think about it. It never lets anyone leave. You swear up and down you’re getting out of here and grabbing a cool condo in Austin, when suddenly, you’re at Jake’s Backroom on your 5th shot of rumple, wondering what the hell happened.<\/p>\n Chrissy Covington<\/p>\n Chrissy Covington<\/p>\n Keep scrolling for more silly Lubbock antics in the galleries below…<\/p>\n The Five Stages of Living in Lubbock: From Denial to Acceptance<\/p>\n If you think you’ve never been through this, you’re lying to yourself.<\/p>\n Gallery Credit: Chrissy<\/p>\n The Seven Natural Disasters of Lubbock<\/p>\n Things get messy around here, folks. <\/p>\n Gallery Credit: Chrissy<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ever feel like you’re being watched in Lubbock?
