    If you asked me which specific Houston minority came to mind first I would say Vietnamese because there’s such a huge stateside population here.

    I think silicone breast implants were invented or first done in Houston ... or something like that.

    Correct, Houston plastic surgeons, there's a movie on it called Breast Men https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breast_Men

    I don't know if it's good, probably not since it was before HBO is what it is today.

    Those are all awesome. Also, came to post Mattress Mack as he's become nationally known.

    I believe the Houstonian pronunciation is 'Messcans'. At least that's how everybody said it when I was growing up.

    It's amazing that it took this long before a Beyoncé mention.

    Cheap housing used to be at the top of my list.
