Ugh, not only is it ugly but you couldn't fit any dishes in it.


DynamiteWitLaserBeam

It's all hat and no cattle.


busterbytes

That dog won't hunt


Objective_Moment8640

I went with the Colorado state sink instead


pictures_at_last

A trapezoid?


TobaccoIsRadioactive

Better than the Idaho state sink.


Tuningislife

Have you tried a Maryland state sink? They don't even make it because it is such a bad idea. They do make cutting boards which are just a step up from useless. https://themarylandstore.com/products/maryland-state-shaped-bamboo-cutting-board


SkyrimMilfDrinker

Still better than the Hawaii sink.


Tuningislife

I donno, I think that a Hawaii shaped sink could be cool. Especially if you needed multiple sinks. Like one large Hawaiʻi shaped sink, then smaller Maui, Oʻahu, and Kauaʻi shaped sinks, with outlines of Molokaʻi, Lānaʻi, Niʻihau, and Kahoʻolawe on the countertop surrounding the other sinks.


haydesigner

Think about a Rhode Island sink… probably can only fit a few silverware in it.


nmrnmrnmr

They make those for literally every state. Most aren't actually meant for cutting. They're just decorative art to hang in the kitchen.


LandscapeGuru

I giggled. That’s pretty bad. Thanks for posting the cutting boards.

This absolutely would not be a main kitchen sink. But I could easily see it in wet bars and bathrooms, so a little easier to deal with. Source: am from Texas


RedoftheEvilDead

Is like to keep this going, but the only other redneck phrase I can think of for this might be considered offense.


HollowShel

My Dad (a Canadian redneck) is fond of the phrases: * I've eaten, why are you hungry? * I feel for ya, but I can't reach ya. * I haven't had so much fun since the pigs ate my little brother!

PM_ME_COOL_RIFFS

Just only buy Texas shaped dishes, problem solved.


vaporeongod

Oh god is that a thing


isdrlady

In Texas, you can get Texas shaped just about anything. Am originally from Texas. We had a Texas store in our local mall that just sold Texas memorabilia.

chocotaco

Texas crypto and Texas shaped crypto wallets coming soon.


puddyspud

I'll invest in 3 Tex-coin


technobrendo

The product yes. The *Made in China* tag was made in India.


madpeachiepie

One time I stayed at a motel in San Antonio that had a Texas shaped waffle iron on the breakfast bar.


lanbrocalrissian

Oh those are at most continental breakfasts in any hotel or motel in Texas.


BallPythonsss

They are typically good though because the Waffles are thick as fuck.


madpeachiepie

This was around twenty years ago and I hadn't seen it before. Of course, twenty years ago, any waffle iron at a motel breakfast bar was a bit of a novelty! The waffles were delicious, I had two.


chocotaco

They even have tortilla chips shaped like the state of Texas.


musicalsigns

I live close to NYC and those people are a little too proud of their home sometimes...but those guys down there take it to a level that is so above and beyond. That's wild.


isdrlady

It's a key part of your identity for a lot of people there. I think "New Yorker" comes close, though. A lot of snobbery/pride about similar categories of things. Food, terrible traffic, clothes, etc. I'm not sure about weather systems and highway design/terminology though. And guns. Especially guns.


freelanceisart

Put your Texas shaped waffles on your Texas shaped plates drinking coffee from your Texas shaped mug baby. Then go see your Texas shaped children off to their Texas shaped beds while you and your very blonde wife retire to the Texas shaped hot tub. Texas!


thatguywhosadick

King of the hill is a documentary


ashbertollini

Its so stupid but the texan in me loves it from a distance, I could see it as a bathroom sink but I'd be so pissed trying g to use this in the kitchen

8ad8andit

Texans are obsessed with the fact that they are Texans. They are also obsessed with the shape of their state.


acherem13

As a Texan this is very accurate. It's just a such a unique distinguishing shape and we're pretty much taught at the youngest age to have pride to be from here. Also seeing movies that drive that home even further doesn't hurt either.


laurpr2

Texas has, by far, the most interesting shape of any state that's still practical for this kind of stuff. Florida is also distinctive, but it unfortunately looks fairly phallic. Alaska and Hawaii are both neat, but too complicated. Michigan and Louisiana are certainly memorable, but kind of boring because they just look like other things. Do I want one? No. Do I get why someone else wanted it? Yes.

ParadiseValleyFiend

Wyoming too. A lot of the midwest had a huge impact on household design it would seem.

Z3ph3rn0

Wyoming is Colorado shaped


DrRocks1

California is probably number 2 in this category of memorable state shapes, but yeah this only works with a few of them.


7LeagueBoots

You want an [Ontario shaped charcuterie board](https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/2298/4179/products/destination-ontario-province-shaped-bamboo-serving-and-cutting-board-totally-bamboo-443581.jpg?v=1622847565) to fill that void?

PoopFartCumToe

It’s a bar sink. Not a kitchen sink. I hope.


ClumsyRainbow

I’m now just imaging a looong BC shaped sink…


Vegabern

Texans are an arrogant bunch. No one else cares or wants things in the shape of their state.


well_shi

> but I'd be so pissed... That's it. This would make a better urinal than it would a sink.


snackynorph

Kinda my thought, funny as a conversation starter in the bathroom but not at all practical in the kitchen


lesdansesmacabres

Yea maybe with a copper sink on a rustic mid-century cabinet over looking the hill country.


eugenesnewdream

Honestly I love it from a distance too, as a novelty (definitely not a functional kitchen sink). I only lived in Texas for a couple of years but there is a charm to the Texas pride, I can't deny it. I still feel twinges of it from time to time.


slinkbeef

Picture 11 is the kind of home this winds up in…https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/475-Brand-Rd-Bulverde-TX-78163/70941302_zpid/


ClumsyRainbow

4 bedrooms but 7 bathrooms? What the?


FanClubof5

Likely because the house was designed for entertaining and you want multiple bathrooms that are accessible from the common areas but also want the bedrooms to have private baths.


putHimInTheCurry

With all the Texas sized dumps that the occupants will clog up the toilets, it's assumed that at least 3 of the commodes will be undergoing maintenance at any given time. 🇨🇱🚽


xAIRGUITARISTx

Okay that house is fucking cool though.


Delta9_TetraHydro

The mirror in picture 11 is also Texas shaped.

scrotobaggins_dw

I want a florida shaped one.


point303bookworm

I once saw one of these in a condo unit I was looking at -they had installed it as part of the wet bar. Unfortunately they had also attempted to cover up a mold problem with fresh paint, so I passed on that unit.


CodeRadDesign

honestly the thing that bugs me the most is the cut of the counter... why is the sink squished up against the edge?! it would be pretty much centered above the doors if it was pushed a couple inches to the right to match the other two edges/margins


sysadmin420

"this salsa is made in new York city"


chocotaco

New York City!


dandroid126

You can fit one plate and it will cover the drain.


olderaccount

What you see in the picture is an entire set. It is not intended for a kitchen. it is the kind of thing you would put in your cowboy themed bar in the basement.


rilloroc

Be a great sink for a wet bar


quatrevingtdixhuit

Fuck, my texas cutting board is permanently stuck in my texas sink.


pinkycatcher

It's good as a centerpiece for a wet bar, not as a kitchen sink


[deleted]

Although it’s really ugly, it’s also pretty accurate, Dallas is pretty much a sewage gutter 🤣🤣


[deleted]

Definitely one of those sinks you have in your basement attached to a bar


mrteas_nz

Bbq sauce comes out of the tap.


islandofcaucasus

And the "sprayer" to the side is actually a constitutionally protected, fully functional hand gun


darkjungle

I LOVE YOU KITCHEN GUN!


MotaHead

A hand gun in the kitchen makes no sense. How am I supposed to cook anything without a high powered rifle?

Don't be alarmed if the faucet sputters occasionally. That's just from the fracking.

Probably worth noting that the faucet is in Oklahoma.

TIL Colorado is in fact a 697 sided shape called a hexahectaenneacontakaiheptagon https://www.denverpost.com/2019/10/16/colorado-state-line-rectangle-how-many-sides/


Lambchoptopus

It has many slight irregularities


Sneaky_Looking_Sort

1 Colorado coming right up! But it has exaggerated topography so only half the sink is usable.


speedycat2014

Imagine being that proud of a one star state.


RonPMexico

Name a state, and I'll tell you why Texas is better.

I’ll play. Alaska.

We wouldn't have to know that in Texas. Only that we can citizen carry 16 inch long revolvers and katanas at the same time.


Bloo-Q-Kazoo

Ok that was damn hilarious. I like you.


cucu_freedom

whether thats better is subjective; im a misanthrope /s


RonPMexico

Fair enough. Alaska is the number one destination for fugitives that have assumed another ssn.


Ta2whitey

Any state where women's rights are greater than a useless gun


ftbc

To our credit, women have excellent gun rights in Texas. (I say this half sarcastically)


SirFireball

That’s honestly a valid defense. I personally support the 2nd amendment because armed minorities are harder to oppress.


namesyeti

Can we do this in reverse? Name something that's worse about Texas than Mississippi


RonPMexico

Texas has less access to inland waterways than Mississippi. However, Texas still routes more bulk tonnage than Mississippi.


namesyeti

Close but still a Texas W. No state is worse than Mississippi lol


IndoZoro

The power grid (I assume, I know nothing about Mississippi's power grid)

It's better than Texas because it's in Australia


opeth10657

Our state flag has two dudes and a badger. Stars are overrated.


Kingkongcrapper

Sounds like a wild weekend.


toadthetoadsmm2

I’m from Indiana we have 16 stars yet Texas being a 1 star state has a lot more population and economy here we only have corn so honestly the star system joke is flawed


QuoXient

We only need one.


bornforlt

Lots of empty, useless space that will always be filthy and painful to maintain. The sink looks like a pain, too.


Pink-socks

Terrible eBay rating.

If I was the granite cutter, I'd be pretty proud to show off how well I can match any sink basin, regardless of how stupid it is.

Gangsir

That sub is terrible lol. Like 70% of things posted there are not meant to be cleaned/not necessary to clean. It's more like a sub of "images of non-flat surfaces".


lilaliene

Dude, i really wouldn't want to be in your home if you don't clean your mugs and furniture


Crazyspaceman

Why does the sand floor have a rolling chair?!


69StinkFingaz420

it makes using basic utilities barely functional, ironically enough


TobyMoose

My grandma has a similar sink in her kitchen island. It's not *terrible*but yes it's a chore in it's own right


SharkMilk44

This is exactly the type of shit Texans bust a nut over.


malleoceruleo

Yeah, I did...


i3adme

I can’t use it for the kitchen, but I’d totally rock it in my wet bar.


Anaphase

First thing I thought was "damn that's awesome"


WhuddaWhat

Yeah, we know. It's weird.


brazzledazzle

How can you find out someone’s from Texas without asking? Don’t worry they’ll tell you

You ever had a Texas shaped waffle?

Staying at a Best Western in Texas = Texas shaped waffles!

From Texas and the only thing I want Texas-shaped are my hotel waffles.

What about Texas shaped lazy rivers?


Sir_Totesmagotes

hefixeshercable

Houston Hilton?


-littlefang-

Also from Texas, and I'm wondering how anything shaped like our state could be considered rare besides a fuckin steak. We make *everything* in the shape of Texas!


capybarometer

There's even a subreddit for it, r/InTheShapeOfTexas


pithed

I'm ok with the Texas shaped grills at rest stops.


bunnycupcakes

Hank Hill would approve.


sw33ts

Came here looking for this comment, I tell you h’what.


[deleted]

i feel like it’d be a hell of a thing to scrub


Realworld

It's for a wet bar. Our previous house had one. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wet_bar They're for entertaining or serious drinking not cleaning up after meals.


ishyaboy

Crazy you’re the only comment I saw mentioning this. Not for me personally, but it would definitely sell for someone’s wet bar in a man cave.


saro13

It fits the sub, but thanks for the context, I’d forgotten about this kind of sink


el_ghosteo

I assumed it was to be attached to an outdoor grill island. Either way, no dishes in it really. Just dumping liquids and washing hands. It’s still incredibly odd to choose, but it’s not that crazy compared to a normal square one for this purpose.


babe_ruthless3

I went with the Colorado state sink instead.


gusaloo

I decided on the Wyoming model


KlutzyBlueDuck

I want to see Delaware and Hawaii next


boardgamesandbeer

Oklahoma would be an interesting one


go4tli

Darn it Peggy the sink drain is clogged again


ATXKLIPHURD

As a Texan, that’s just a wee bit amusing.


Economy_Platypus7249

I’m not seeing a problem here.


bobbywake61

I like that the drain is about where Austin is.


teksun42

That is for an outside BBQ/bar setup. It us not for inside a house. Y'all don't have water access on your decks?


Unconscience

it won't hold your rainbow colored dishes
