You will never admit it though cuz you are in denial. I think it's the other way around Zoeb. I never knew about this one-sided bay area-L.A. rivalry until I moved up here. I actually thought San Francisco was a cool place to visit. I quickly discovered how very wrong I was. They should require a passport to visit the bay area, cause it's so not like anywhere else in America, and especially nothing like L.A., which is atrocious. Must be the dirty air they breathe up here, as well as their toxic water that everyone thinks is clean to drink.

Correction, no you don't. none on the 80, 580, or 24, especially on onramps which have tons of people entering the freeway.

I used to live in Lafayette, and these girls bored me to death. Girls in L.A. are actually good-looking and smart, and wow, interesting as well. It seems that girls here are either smart or good-looking, but never both. Since if they are both, they know enough to move away.

Malibu is an exception in my book, but ya gotta admit only Malibu up to Ventura are good for surfing, then you have to drive down to SD.

BLITZSTI 01-10-2006, 03:02 PM In NorCal, what is there? For the most part, NorCal is just open farmland, the barrenness of that expanse broken only by clusters of politicians. Yes, you have San Francisco, but that's basically where UC Berkeley is, and between the two of those places, you have more radicals than in the rest of western world. What's up with all the protesting? I guess that when you have nothing else to do, and such gloomy mornings every day, you have to find some way to amuse yourself. socal: we love talking shiet and can handle it Sorcal: overly sensitive, hence why you guys are all here complaing and attempting to prove why sorcal is better. herrjr 01-10-2006, 03:02 PM Oh, and traffic only sucks going into town, not both ways and everywhich way you want to go, including surface streets.

Actually, it's the other way around. I had no negative opinions about the Bay area until I moved here. Unlike all the bay area people I met that had tons to say about L.A. and Angelenos, even though most of them haven't ever set foot in L.A. I'm not kidding you, I met a girl at a bar once that was very proud the fact that she had never gone west of the Caldecot Tunnel. Are you kidding me? Oh, and this person had tons to say about L.A. as well. And I agree that anyone has an opinion founded upon talking out of their ass is retarded. Regardless of where these people are from. shim022 01-10-2006, 03:07 PM Yes, you have San Francisco, but that's basically where UC Berkeley is, and between the two of those places, you have more radicals than in the rest of western world. thus saving on miles and not having to drive 25k miles a year to do the same activities in norcal. :) herrjr 01-10-2006, 03:11 PM Actually, I live in the Sacramento area, I've never been on the 24 or Telegraph.

I agree that the 24/7 carpool lanes thing is annoying, but the reason why they have it that way is to prevent people from using that lane as a momentary overtake-lane. So it's safer for people in the carpool lane to use. And besides, when it's no longer rush hour in L.A., there's tons of space with the average 5 lanes in each direction. sigma pi 01-10-2006, 04:53 PM Of course. It is the "I hate Norcal thread."

Dude, only poor people in L.A. take mass transit; that's why it's the car capital of the world. I agree that the 24/7 carpool lanes thing is annoying, but the reason why they have it that way is to prevent people from using that lane as a momentary overtake-lane. So it's safer for people in the carpool lane to use. And besides, when it's no longer rush hour in L.A., there's tons of space with the average 5 lanes in each direction. Hey I was in college. I was taking mass transportation when I could get it since it saved me the agony of being stuck in traffic, I could study a bit and I save some money. Why should they get better mass transit down in socal? Because it sucks being stuck in traffic at 8:00pm on Sunday or Saturday.. or friday.. or thursday.. or.... you get my drift. This especially goes for the gdamn 405/5 split. See I have forgotten what rush hour is since i live near 405 and commute everywhere other than work (Covina, Lifeplaza, City of Industry, etc) using 91, 605, 110, 705, 60, 5, and run into traffic somewhere.. you know about when traffic slows down and restarts in Norcal. You really don't in socal. 5 lanes really isn't enough here. But the perk is, I work in Redondo and manhattan beach and hermosa beach are only a stones throw away. Torrance has an abundance of Japanese grocery stores and restaurants. There are good places to eat as well. hehe Tim soggynoodles 01-10-2006, 05:56 PM WTF were you zinging?

It's just that SoCal is better. :) There are plenty more beaches than Santa Monica and Venice. There's Malibu, Manhattan, Hermosa, Seal, Redondo, Laguna, etc., and my personal favorite, Huntington. Come to Manhattan or Huntington on a summer day, and you'll never want to live anywhere else. Ew. Of all the beaches in SoCal, you like Huntington? Gross. Huntington is dirty, and overly populated by white trash. I like Newport and Laguna, myself. In fact, I just went to the beach yesterday, laid out and read.

However, this issue of Socal vs. Norcal is a very real one, and affects real life. An example is one that I discovered reading the East Bay Express.

This example may seem to be unexpository, but is actually indicative of the behavioral patterns already mentioned that are generally prevalent. "Resentiment" is a very real issue, and anyone that has studied a certain portion of Modern philosophy shall know exactly what I am speaking of. Thus, making this specific topic worth discussing, because there was never any argument to win in the first place. Besides, the thread was supposed to be for Socal members to post about hating Norcal - it wasn't supposed to include Norcal-ers (who were "recruited" because of a certain someone's bay area invitation) who felt the need to beat on their drums. p.s. people like me get paid to argue ;) sigma pi 01-11-2006, 01:39 PM Actually, if you look at my post average it is .56 posts a day.
