Theta,
actually, I like the people in California, too. It's true that in one of my posts in the Texas thread, I talked about Californians being kinda rude compared to Texans, but I didn't insinuate that I didn't like that. I find the bumper sticker I mentioned really funny and I in no way feel that Californians are extra mean. I just know a lot of people feel that way because they like the syrupy sweet type people you find in some more old-fashioned places, it seems to me. I like the no-nonsense, say-something-worthwhile-or-don't-waste-my-time type people I find in Cali. Those are the people I am comfy with and that's why I stay here year after year. I love people who don't bug you unless you asked to be bugged. That's how I see califnornia. People don't try to get into your business here.
Well, it's all perspective. I know a lot of people consider that attitude rude, so that's why I said Californians can be mean. But, some people love it! I wouldn't trade it for the world!
Usually I don't try to apologize for my posts, but I would hate to give anyone the impression that I don't love everything about California. Again, there are TOO MANY people, but they are the smartest, most diverse and easiest people to live around in the country! Go Cali!
