It's the "depends on where you drive" part that sucks, especially when you're on the 580W coming from the 5 heading into Berkeley on a Monday morning after a weekend retreat in L.A.

"24 is too cool for on ramp lights." You east of the tunnel people are something else, really.

 

It's not just you. The powers that be of this forum are based in Norcal.

 

Norcal auto show is a joke compared to the L.A. auto show, which I thankfully caught for 06 on Friday.

 

who's the one that came out in the civic to some of the outings out in la?

yes, you guys have more auto stuff. but you also have freeway shootings and paintballing

 

We had teh hatteroo! :banana:

 

Out of context????? Your statement was purely one an egotist would state, thus quoting it was never out of context.

 

Lived in LA for 4 years (west LA/Santa Monica border on SantaMonicaBlvd). And LA sucks. I've heard good things about SD, but if Southern Cali is being rep'd by LA, then NorCal kills it. People wise, mountain wise, beach wise, girl wise, car wise (especially for Subarus).

And on the rivalry, I had never heard of any rivalry between north and south until I went to UCLA, then all the sudden I was getting slammed for being from the north half of the state.

 

You're kidding right...the LA auto show was so crappy in 02 I never went back.

 

Uh...only when SC can play (read:last couple years). Do I need to remind you all that LA fans suck so bad you had to give your team back to us? And your other team had to go to the midwest to get some love.

 

oooo good point.

Can't believe no one has mentioned that one yet!!!

 

+1 For teh hatteroo

 

An egotist is a good thing (see Ayn Rand), and by "out of context," I meant that you should've also attached the original comment which my comment was referring too.

 

im smart i took my civic out so i dont get paintballed... oops did i hit a sore point?

 

Never heard of this, so I can't comment on it occurring. All I can say is that I personally had no sense of the rivalry whenever I visited Norcal in the past, and nobody I knew in L.A. ever had anything to say about it (except for the part about not going to CAL because of all the left-wingers).

But as far as Norcal "killing" L.A. , well, what can I say. Only people that have a certain, hmmm, panache can do well in a place like cutthroat L.A. And yes, Norcal has way more Subarus, because down in L.A., people buy Porsches when they are done with school, and quite a few get Ferraris.

 

Before SC was UCLA, and before UCLA was SC. And the Raiders leaving was a b.s. Al Davis stunt. He could care less where the team ends up. He'd go to N. Dakota if they paid for the team to move there. And what's up with the "Golden State" Warriors? Since their forum is right next to the McAfee Coliseum where the Oakland A's and Oakland Raiders are, shouldn't they be referred to as the "Oakland Warriors?"
