The world probably knows of the Austin slogan/catchphrase “Keep Austin Weird.” It’s on all kinds of merchandise around here and it accurately reflects the city’s personality, especially if one has lived here long enough.
Round Rock, the “safe,” homogenized Republican ‘burb to the north countered a few years back with “Keep Round Rock Mildly Unusual.” Clever and it feels smug.
Little did I know that where I live, Pflugerville, someone coined “Pflugerville, between a Rock and a Weird place” to join the fray. Definitely better than Round Rock’s.
However, since I live in unincorporated Pflugerville, am I eligible to have this bumper sticker on my car like the vehicle I spotted it on this morning?
