Titled: "Why Houston, not Chicago, deserves Third in the Census"
Can you believe Houston is actually butt hurt over not taking over #3? Butt hurt and whining like little sniffling babies. They really wanted that distinction baaad and actually were telling themselves that this would be the census to put them at #03. I don't mind a city aspiring for more, but take your medicine like a big boy Houston... and don't take away credit from a city you know next to nothing about - Chicago.
And yeah, needless to say, I requested for google to stop sending me articles from the Houston Chronicle.
Note: the article might be paywalled by now.

Yeah they are ridiculous. I'm not sure they understand how a census count works. Most people there are dumb about this though. I've gotten into it before with a few people. They literally expected Houston to surpass Chicago this year even though the growth rates from 2010 to 2015 indicated more like sometime between 2030 and 2040. And by then who knows what will happen in various cities.
