Why all the Cali hate?

Everyone hates the big guy on the block. It's that simple. Look at sports for your examples.

Its because California is like a black hole sucking resources from nearby states and its a supposedly the culture center of America. I liked it better when NYC was the cultural center of America.

Also California is all about image over substance and its full of hypocrites especially the people in Hollywood.

I kinda like Chicago.

Then we have New Jersey, Mississippi, and Utah.

Well those all make sense at least.

So you're now slamming Reese for starting a fake quote chain? Which really isn't all that fake because your very first quote was about 'big'?

It's your right, I guess. Free country...

The west coast is a geographical marvel and anomaly.
The activity along the San Andreas fault line causes Extremely Low Frequency sound waves from the plate movement that literally travels thousands of miles.
While it is inaudible to the human ear it is still detected by the brain as laboratory testing has shown.
This low tone stimulates the brains pretentious zone triggering growth. Once a person's head has become fat enough they are hopelessly driven to migrate to Cali.
Cali is like a huge roach motel for the superficial.
Those poor saps deserve our pity. sad

It's mostly jealousy, defensiveness, and projection. There are a lot of douchey people in California who have a bigger soapbox than they should, but overall the state is a treasure.

This is very true and the main difference between our douches and your douches. Your douches don't have soapboxes. That's why they're always bending over to retrieve the soap.

Democrats’ favorite states include Hawaii (62-7), Washington (50-10), Massachusetts (49-9), Oregon (46-6), Vermont (46-9), Colorado (45-8), and New York (51-15), and their least favorites are led by Texas (17-51), Alabama (13-45), and Mississippi (13-41). Republicans love Alaska (65-3) and Texas (66-9), and absolutely hate California (12-68), followed distantly by Illinois (15-44) and Massachusetts (19-47). So the greatest partisan gap is for California, which Democrats like 91 points more than Republicans do, followed by Texas, which is favored more by Republicans by 82 points.

Didn't really tell us anything we didn't already know.
