from #285 - Tim Dillon VS Substack | The Tim Dillon Show · #285
3 min
Tim performs an over-the-top, saccharine fake tourism ad praising Austin, Texas as peaceful and crime-free, piling on ironic superlatives.
- Anyone mentioning grace is a signal to check their credit card statements for motel charges.
- Tim plays a fake Austin tourism video describing the city as relaxed, peaceful, and cerebral with no crime.
- The video claims you always feel safe in downtown Austin, unlike New York where people get pushed into subway tracks.
- Texas figured out how to have a place without any crime where families walk around at night feeling completely safe.
- The speaker was shocked to see full families and generations window shopping and going to clubs at 10-11 p.m.
- Tim reads a section about having meaningful conversations with strangers and the friendliness of Austin residents.
- The video concludes that Austin feels like a peaceful music festival every night celebrating the act of being alive.
