You Texan, you! We took my son to the University of Tulsa and OSU to check them out and when we told my brother-in-law (who was born in Shreveport, BTW) he couldn't believe that we were actually considering sending him to school in OKLAHOMA. (He decided on TCU but Tulsa was close.)

Did you you know that calling someone an "Okie" in California is REALLY considered an insult?

"Okie, for a time, was used pejoratively, mainly by Californians and politically motivated writers, to describe white and mixed Indian blood migrant farm workers and their families forced to flee their farms during the Great Depression of the 1930s. Californians used the term for residents from many states, not just those from Oklahoma."

Take that you Okies!

No, but I can see why. ;)

When Karin (from CA) met Ben (from Tx), the guy Abby (from CA) was gonna marry, Karin descibed him as "a bubba." Abby and Karin have been unable to convince any of us non-CAians how that wasn't an insult. But they insist it isn't.

CAians and their weird language.

when i was visiting SF last, my california cousin instructed me to "flip a bitch" at the next light. apparently that means make a u-turn. i try to work it in here and there, but it doesn't seem to fly in virginia.

I like that! I have to flip a bitch now & again, so now I have a cool phrase instead of "do a u-ee"
"Don't go to bed mad. Stay up and fight"
