How do you feel about us Californians?

[jenarelJAM]

So I was watching Frasier the other night, season two, with the politician who believed in aliens. As he left frasier's house he mentioned that believing in aliens might help him win the election if he ran in california, and it got me thinking. What does the rest of the country think of us Californians? I realize we are thought of as more radical people, with large places like San Francisco. We have Las Angeles, which is kindof the birthplace of many modern styles, home of Hollywood etc. Are we viewed as incredibly rash, too progressive, weird, lacking in morals, rich, poor, educated, overly tolerant of immorral practices? Also (since I'm looking at colleges), what do west coast colleges mean in other parts of the country? We don't have any Ivy League schools, but we have Stanford, UC Berkeley, UCLA, etc. How widely acclaimed are these?

Thanks

no one outside of CA paid attention to who our govenor was before, so you wouldnt have realized how incompetant Grey Davis was. While I didnt vote for Arnold, he has had many successful businesses besides his acting career. He's not doing a great job, but he's not horrible either. He's hindered by the fact that the rest of CA government is controlled by really waco liberals, the kind that give the normal liberals a bad name.

And about the gay thing....what does it matter to you alabamians, arent you married to your sister?

How was filling out that ballot? And the Floridians thought they had it rough.

It really depends on which part of California you're talking about. Southern Californians are not well thought of in the Pacific Northwest. My wife now tells people that she's from The Bay Area, and not California. The reaction is much better. I think a lot of it comes from a few years back when there was an influx of people from Southern California to our region. There seemed to be this desire to get people here to change their ways to a more 'Californian' way of doing things.
