:: You Know you're from California if... ::

I am a "CALIFORNIAN." That means...

-Everyone hates cops (sadly true)

-We'll roll up 40 deep when something goes down (I'm not sure what "roll up 40 deep" means but, sure why not)

-I live next door to mexicans (that's how I had a Mexican Grandma)

-Our chicks are WAYYYY hotter than yours (very true)

- I say "like" and "for sure" and "right on" and "dude" and "totally" and "peace out" and "chill" and "tight" and "bro" and I say them often (like, totally dude!)

- I know what real cheese & avocados taste like (avocados in Florida aren't nearly as tasty as a good California Haas)

- I don't get snowdays off because theres only snow in Mammoth, Tahoe, Shasta, and Big Bear (snow's that white stuff that you don't snort, right?)

- I can wear sandals all year long (board shorts and flip flops almost all year)

- I go to the Beach - not "down to the shore" (who says "down to the shore"?)

- I know 65 mph really means 100 (I keep it around 85 nowadays)

- When someone cuts me off, they get the horn and the finger and high speed chase cuz we dont mess around on the road (though Miami drivers are even worse than California drivers, something I didn't think was possible)

- My governor can kick your governor's ass (We're talking to you, Minnesota)

- I can go out at midnight (yep)

-You judge people based on what area code they live in, and when asked where you're from, you give your area code (310)

- I might get looked at funny by locals when I'm on vacation in their state, but when they find out I'm from California I turn into a Greek GOD (not exactly God-like, but people do respond positively... unless they lived there for a short time)

- We don't stop at stop signs... we do a "california roll." No cop no stop baby! (here, people don't even slow down)

- I can get fresh and REAL Mexican food 24 hours a day (best Mexican food outside of, well, Mexico)

- All the TV shows you "other" states watch get filmed here (except for the ones filmed in Canada... that horrible grammar isn't mine)

-We're the Golden State. Not the Cheese State. Not the Garden State.....GOLDEN!!! (no one else comes close)

- We have In 'n Out Burger (again, no one else comes close)

- I have the most representation in the House of Representatives, which means MY opinion means more than yours (what we lack in quality, we make up for in quantity)

- The best athletes come from here (steroid users COUGHBarryBondsCOUGH and, well, the entire SanFran Giants roster don't count)
