got this from an email.

YOU KNOW YOU LIVE IN SO-CAL IF.......

1. Your monthly house payments exceed your annual income.

2. You drive next to a Rolls Royce and don't notice.

3. You don't know anyone's phone number unless you check your cell phone.

4. You speak Spanish, but you're not Mexican.

5. You begin to "lie" to your friends about how close you are when you know damn well that it'll take you at least an hour to get there see below**).
**Getting anywhere from point A to point B, no matter what the
distance, takes about "twenty minutes".

6. You drive to your neighborhood block party.

7. In the "winter", you can go to the beach and ski at Big Bear on the same day.

8. You eat a different ethnic food for every meal.

9. If your destination is more than 5 minutes away on foot, you're definitely driving.

10. Calling your neighbors requires knowing their area code.

11. You know what In N Out is and feel bad for all the other states because they don't have any.

12. You don't stop at a STOP sign, you do a California Roll.

13. You really can never be too rich or too thin or too tan.

14. You've partied in Tijuana at least 3 times... You don't remember at least 1 of them.

15. You go to a tanning salon before going to the beach.

16. You eat pineapple on pizza.

17. Your cell phone has left a permanent impression on the side of your head.

18. You think that Venice is a beach.

19. The waitress asks if you'd like "carbs" in your meal.

20. You know who the tinsel underwear dude in Venice Beach is.

21. You classify new people you meet by their Area Code. An "818" would never date a "562" and anyone from "323" or "213" is ghetto/second class. Best area code: "714." Nobody likes anyone from the "909" because it stinks there.

22. You call 911 and they put you on hold.

23. You have a gym membership because it's mandatory.

24. The gym is packed at 3 pm...on a workday.

25. You think you are better than the people who live "Over the Hill". It doesn't matter which side of the hill you are currently residing, you are just better than them, for whatever reason.

26. You know that if you drive two miles in any direction you will
find a McDonald's or a Starbucks.

27. You know what "sigalert", "PCH", and "the five" mean.

28. You can't remember . . . is pot illegal?

29. It's barely sprinkling rain and there's a report on every
newsstation: "STORM WATCH"

30. The Terminator is your governor.

31. You actually get these jokes and pass them on to other friends from California.

Damn I got a list like this ahwhile ago.... cept it had "Is pot illegal?" like 5 times. Also like "You drive by an elementary school, and all the kids are on there cell's"

As for the In N Out one.... Screw that, I got soooo pissed when they opened in other states. That is OUR burger shop, thats the perks to living in ca, we can't give them away. And yea, damn, the 909 does stink.

This list is awesome - I try to tell these guys out here on the East Coast what Cali is all about but they just don't get it. Damn, I miss Cali - don't ever take living in SoCal for granted!!

After living in Tustin and working in Costa Mesa, driving the 'Orange Crush' daily, I bailed out. When I moved to the Northwest I missed In-N-Out a lot. Now that I moved to the right coast I also miss Jack-In-The-Box.
You always hear about the great food in the New York area....Bah. I would kill for a Green Burrito or Puffy Taco.
Oh, right now it's 19 degrees outside and we have snow on the ground from last week. :'(

I am surprised that nobody has put "moms/chicks", "cellphone", "no signal lane change", "rain", and "driving fast" in one sentence yet. :tickedoff:

actually, I don't see why 714 is the best area code (even though it's mine)
for OC I'd say 949
and for LA 310
