So as not to be outdone by all the redneck, hillbilly, and Texan jokes, somebody had to come up with this, you know you’re from California if:
1. Your coworker has 8 body piercings and none are visible.
2. You make over $300,000 and still can’t afford a house.
3. You take a bus and are shocked at two people carrying on a conversation in English.
4. Your child’s 3rd-grade teacher has purple hair, a nose ring, and is named Flower.
5. You can’t remember . . . is pot illegal?
6. You’ve been to a baby shower that has two mothers and a sperm donor.
7. You have a very strong opinion about where your coffee beans are grown, and you can taste the difference between Sumatran and Ethiopian.
8. You can’t remember . . . . is pot illegal?
9. A really great parking space can totally move you to tears.
10. Gas costs $1.00 per gallon more than anywhere else in the U.S.
11. Unlike back home, the guy at 8:30 am at Starbucks wearing a baseball cap and sunglasses who looks like George Clooney really IS George Clooney.
12. Your car insurance costs as much as your house payment.
13. You can’t remember . . . .is pot illegal?
14. It’s barely sprinkling rain and there’s a report on every news station: “STORM WATCH.”
15. You pass an elementary school playground and the children are all busy with their cell phones.
16. Or it’s barely sprinkling rain outside, so you leave for work an hour early to avoid all the weather-related accidents.
17. HEY!!!! Is pot illegal????
18. Both you AND your dog have therapists, psychics, personal trainers and cosmetic surgeons.
19 The Terminator was your governor.

Re: CA: No place but California
Well, I hope that the droves leaving CA and moving to Texas don't vote the same caliber of politicians into office that screwed up CA.Abraham wrote:ajwakeboarder,
And many millions will be joining you to either come here or elsewhere, but no matter where they settle, it won't be in California.
People are leaving Ca. in droves and for good reason, yet the pols there simply refuse to recognize reality.
As a kid, I recall how almost nightly on tv news, you'd hear how many thousands weekly were heading out for Ca...no longer.
Why their pols refuse to accept reality is bizarre...yet they continue to tout leftist garbage.
I wonder what'll happen when skilled labor is almost entirely gone. My guess: The uber-rich will have to fly in plumbers, electricians, carpenters, pay all their travel/lodging expenses, (never mind the cost to fix whatever....) etc., from out of state, cuz aint nobody in the middle class gonna live there no mo...
However, they'll be druggies, bums galore, needles/feces on the sidewalk, and crime like never before.
It'll be like "Clockwork Orange" only it won't be a movie.

Normalizing the chaos in California
Unchallenged liberalism leaves homelessness, drug needles and garbage in its wake
Liberal policy failure is all around us and destroys lives every day. In California, the destruction of society and individual lives has become so overwhelming, the state’s liberal overseers now spend their time covering up where they can and normalizing the chaos as much as possible.
Since 2013, when now-liberal icon Eric Garcetti was elected mayor of Los Angeles, and the nation had just re-elected Barack Obama as president, Los Angeles’ homeless population skyrocketed 46 percent. During the Obama years, where unchallenged liberalism was pushed and accepted (wrongly) as the new normal, we saw the leftist economic menace rage through the entire nation, destroying businesses and the full-time jobs that went with them.
In California, the destruction is particularly acute. As the social structure in major cities continues to break down, the state focuses on banning plastic straws, whether to release from prison a mass murderer from the Manson family, while cheering at becoming as sanctuary state.
Just this week, the Los Angeles Times issued an editorial titled, “Los Angeles homeless crisis is a national disgrace.” Actually, it’s not — it’s a California disgrace. The editorial exemplifies the refusal of liberals to not just admit their responsibility to social destruction, but an inability to even relate to reality.

Re: CA: No place but California
There are way too many busybodies in Kalifornia. And the legislature obviously meets to pass laws way too often.
