In Norwegian, there is an expression: “Det er helt Texas”. Directly translated, it means, “It is completely Texas”, but the expression means, “it is completely crazy”. Shit like this is why the phrase exists.

How he took it was so embarrassing and awkward to watch. “She would have said yes had I said yes”. No, she clearly would not have!
