"The answer is 12!" - Peppermint Patty

Sorry I had to give an answer that made no sense for a thread that, again, makes no sense.

Actually the answer is 42!

From "Life, The Universe, and Everything" by Douglas Adams.

Actually the answr is F: take all its resources and money,forget about the "middle", and along with New York rule the country.

At least in California we're not REQUIRED BY LAW to take a fucking bath once a year............

It's G: We will split into three states. Nor Cal and all of their t-shirts and stickers will sink into the Pacific. Seeing as though there isn't much in Central Cali (Except SLO), they will rename themselves West Wyoming. Southern Cali will finally become the regular California you know and love.

H) No one cares what happens to California.

haha

I agree with Stan,

except that SoCal will be re-annexed by Mexico. :D

We haven't been already?

I don't know dude, but i'm paying attention.

Cuz as soon as they finish that, i know they're coming after us. Probably turn the Alamo into a Pharmacia or something.

Glitter and Stan, you crack me up but I agree it is definitely answers F and specifically because all of you California haters can talk but where do 50% of you want to move after high school/ college... yeah that's right, California and the other 50% want to move to New York.

So just keep watching "The O.C." and your "90210" re-runs, wishing you were here especially in the dead of winter when it is a balmy 75 degrees here!:D

LMAO

Oh yeah bobby! P town represent! Kentucky, please...dont make me laugh...You wouldnt last two seconds in a city with paved streets and running water...

The state will be split into two states, california and southern oregon, also known as norcal. My chapter has already established this since last year. Anything above santa barbara is now Southern Oregon...

Oh, and New York, please...RED SOX ALL THE WAY! DOWN WITH NEW YORK!!

SOUTHIE BOSTON FOR LIFE!

Did any of you see that horrid movie 10.5? That's what will happen. Sure. :rolleyes:

Amen to that! :D

Next time you're in 5 feet of snow, 6 feet of water or 75 mph winds, just think of us SoCalers at the beach at the same time, drinking a beer and playing horseshoes.

The seven guys in my house FROM OC would like all plebians who feel that the FOX show bears any resemblence to California much less OC should pull their heads out of their asses.

Stan-
Fox Broadcasting: They call it "OC", not "THE OC". It's Orange County, not THE Orange County. They don't call it "THE NYC" or "THE LA"

ahhh... but down there it is THE 405 ;)

Isn't the O.C. (oops, sorry Stan! I mean O.C. :) ) where John Wayne airport is? I flew in there once to go to a friend's wedding in Dana Point (also O.C.?). I think there was a big ol' statue of John Wayne at the airport, but I can't remember for sure.

Yup John Wayne is the airport for Orange County... I think the air port is actually in Irvine... maybe anaheim ?? Not sure what exact city it's in but I've used it MANY times :D

Okay So I am reading this thread, and I have to laugh, becuase it was just so random. I am orginally from North Cal or better yet "Southern Oregon" and I have to say living here in Chicago, def. makes me wish I was back in California. I miss the beaches and the sun, and even the people.

I am going to chose the letter I for this quiz, for. I wish I was there but I am not there.

And, who really wants Cal whether you are from SoCal or NoCal, to disappear, I love going there to visit.

Oh Yeah!! Back here in Chicago, we have this store called Hollister. Can I just ask the peeps from Cali, (to use the chicago term slimy). Is Hollister still Slimy? Cause I really love the fact that hte stores out here make Hollister, California to be this great OC like kind of place.

um, hi. it's either Southie or South Boston. Please don't put the two together. k? thanks.

A lot of the older pilots call it Santa Ana -- which may have been it's original name?

I like California, but we are waiting for that beach front property just West of Denver...

LMAO OMG you have NO idea how many preppy ass kids here sport Hollister. Just another A&F rip off where you pay 40 dollars for a faded, worn-out shirt that would cost 5 bucks elsewhere.

Von Dutch, Hurley, Hollister, it's all the same.

It's mostly the Nor Cal kids who sport it too.......

You must mean SUPER nor cal like Sacramento area becuase we don't even have a Hollister store anywhere near here in SF... :D closest one I think is like an hour or more away....

It's in Irvine. I work down the street from it.

I'm in Sacramento and I have never heard of Hollister stores. Just the city near Monteray. :)

I am not THAT Nor-Cal... Humbolt... now that's Nor Cal...

Ditto to that, not seeing many clothing items being worn from those chain stores in San Francisco. We have plenty of local boutiques and vintage stores, in addition to plentiful stores downtown, and the fabulous STONESTOWN which I know Glitter is familiar with. (btw it used to be the UGLIEST outdoor shopping center, and when I was a toddler they built the new one, who puts an outdoor shopping mall that close to the beach with all the fog?).

My friend from the Reno are was discussing California with me, and we think there are three states as well, however it falls differently.
1) Northern Coast and Bay Area (including the wine & cheese country, down to Carmel, but not as far as SLO).
2) Inland (have to keep those people from the mountains up n the hills ;) however 80 will be a federal area, as will I-5 so we can still get to Tahoe and Oregon).
3) Southern Coast ( the cities, you don't want Barstow with them do you Stan?)

On different sides of the border of the states, it can be called 101, or THE 101. All the meth labs can stay in the Valley. Any coastal town with fog is in the North, and the southern beaches must have temps above 75.

RE: Hollister, the only locations within 90 miles of San Francisco are in Concord and Pleasanton...enough said.

Glitter650: I envy you in the fact you can go to SerraBowl all night, eat lumpia there, and then make a stop at In-N-Out and Krispy Kreme on the way home. We have all night donuts here in nowhereville, but it isn't the same. You also have a NATION'S for the late night feasting. So cruel!

I just have to interject that while they may have Krispy Kreme where Glitter lives, it was started in North Carolina. :D

being from Wisconsin & Illinois and living in Claifornia, I have to say I have grown to love the place, despite the high cost of living.

However, there are a few annoying things Californians do:
At first I was put off by the people who would ask if I was from "out east", or the "east coast" because, as far as I am concerned, Chicago is the midwest, not "out east". Also, the Californians have this nasty habbit of calling the place my entire family lives a "fly over state". Excuse me?! You know you always have layovers in O'Hare.
Also, there is a bit of snobbishness about some people from California, like they are better than you for being born in San Deigo, and can say that 50 degrees is "cold".

That being said, the geography and weather here is wonderful. I really do like it!

hollister isn't slimy, there isn't anything there. it's just hills and fields. not great. i like some of the hollister cothes, except they are made for size 0 and -2. lol.

Thank you for the clairfication, about Hollister. I was thinking after I posted my comment, that the last time I was in Hollister was in 1988, and it could of gotten better since the last time I was there. I totally agree though on the clothes. But they are better then Abercrombie and Fitch and there 0 and -2 sizes. LOL...I have one shirt from Hollister that if I wear it, You can def. see everything that was created on me. LOL....great to work out in and to get attention in...

I totally agree, with that statement. Lord, if the kids at the high school could just take a look at themselves 4 to 8 years from now, they would be like OMG what was I thinking wearing that. My 16 yr. odl sister is falling into that category. She needs to knock it off.

About the whole fly over statement, its okay people back in here in Chicago, say I have an accent. I never understood, until I heard myself, after a recording. I have this midwest twang, and this california blonde accent. (BTW the cali blonde accent are my mothers words. NOT Mine).

I know that Hollister is somewhere near Napa. My aunt and her daughter both shop there and live in someplace called Vallejo. I dont know I have been to Vallejo, only 4 times in my life and each time I wish I never had to go there in the first place. Sorry for anyone who lives there.

My favorite thing to talk about with people from Chicago is the fact that you can pretty much take one interstate and drive the whole state. People back here find that so hard to belive, I try to explain to them its like if you got on I55, and could travel the whole state of Illinois. It would be the same, they just dont get it.

Hey here is a new question for everyone. Has anyone heard of Esparto California. My dads aunt just moved there, and I was wondering what it is like?

[hijack]

LMAO!!! I'm actually from Vallejo! I don't go back there very often, only to visit my family. the only thing they have going is the six flags marine world for tourists and other school's field trips. and vallejo is right under napa valley, so it's close to all the booze. hehe. i don't really like vallejo because it's kinda ghetto. the only thing i like about it is that my familia is there and it's where i grew up, so i remember all of my old stomping grounds. *memories*sigh*

hollister the city is actually more down south. it's east of monterey. like an hour or so. (i live in monterey now.)

i think the hollister stores that your aunt and cousin shop at are at the malls in pleasonton and concord, ca. (i know where all the malls are in the areas where i lived/live :) )

ok enough of me.. back to the quiz

[/hijack]

I admit people from Cali do have a bit of snobbiness about where they are from...and I know I personally am guilty of it...I don't look down on people not from Cali... I'm just very happy here and will argue it's the best place on earth to live ! I do say that I call it the flyover sometimes though.. but I don't visit there that often... I don't have any family and only a few friends there to visit.. so most of the time I do fly over it.. although most of the time I call it the middle... however.... I've had people ask me if I'm gay just because I live in San Francisco... and some people I've met are suprised I can't surf :rolleyes:

Thesouth trying to make the rest of the USA Diabetic . . Krispy Kreme is not exactly low-carb friendly.

To funny...I never thought I would find someone from there. Okay so when it comes to Vallejo, I called them to find out exactly where they live in Vallejo, and they said they live near some bridge crossing over to Crockett and then if you go a little further you get into some place called Rodeo. Does that make any since? PM would love to talk Glitter650, and you too norcalchick
