California

Often stereotyped, California is a case study of why real-world liberalism screws you in the end. The state is nearly bankrupt from 30 years of mismanagement by a legislature more interested in appeasing special-interest groups than actually running the damn state, and makred by high taxes, insane cost of living, and a political system slightly more pleasing than a bucket of manure. The complete cluelessness of the general public ensures that the process will continue ad nauseum, until all the people with any sense (and money) leave and California becomes known as the one state poorer and more ridiculed than Alabama.

Also a good example of the sheer stupidity of many corporations because they actually voluntarily choose to move out here.

"I don't mind living in a double-wide that costs $300K, paying 50% taxes, obscene utility bills, or $3.00 per gallon gas thanks to the incompetent legislature *I* elected because the weather is sooooo nice out here."

California merge

When entering a highway or freeway, when you don't merge from the entrance ramp to the road itself until the entrance lane ends, and just expect that Moses will part the traffic for you so you don't end up smashed between a semi and one of those fat-ass Hummers. So named because the sheeple in California, too oblivious to reality to actually take the initiative and merge when there's an opening *before* the lane ends, are particuarly fond of this traffic maneuver.

"Look at me, I'm following the solid white line onto the highway because I suck at life."

Hasik's law

Hasik's Law states that, of the people you know only over the Internet, you are connected to at least one of them by no more than two degrees of separation (i.e. friend of a friend).

It can be very amusing and philosophical thinking about who that person (or persons) might be.

alfred486: hey dude, whats up?
bernieX: not much, im just going out with my pal mike for a pizza tonight
alfred486: cool, i know a guy named mike who loves pizza
bernieX: not mike johnson, is it? short fat italian dude?
alfred486: actually, yeah it is...
bernieX: HOLY SHIT! WE BOTH KNOW MIKE!


Thus, Hasik's law holds true again.

Arnold Schwarzenegger

Famous former bodybuilder and Hollywood action star turned politician. Ostensibly a Republican but is a moderate conservative at best (what do you expect, he married a Kennedy). Of course, in California the main political groups are 'far left' and 'really far left' so I guess he's as Republican as you might expect a Californian to be. Won special election for governor in California mainly as a protest against scandals of the Davis administration. Is very popular with the people but so far no more effective than Davis in addressing the issues facing the state. His first real political challenge will come with the next general election, as so far his only real opposition has come from a corrupt governor and a top official in said corrupt governor's administration.

Thanks to his movies and outspoken political ambitions, everyone has at least heard of Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Law & Order

Extremely popular crime drama series created by Dick Wolf. Unlike most such shows, which usually focus on either detectives or the criminal suit itself but never both, each Law & Order episode usually covers one murder case from discovery of the body, through the police investigation and resulting trial(s) and ends with a conviction, acquittal, or plea bargain.

Also unlike most police shows it does not show the process in a stylized or purely glamorous light but tries to portray it with more realism; dirty DA politics and bringing the wrong person to trial are not rare subplots.

Put a Jewish cop who's daughter was murdered with a partner with an ailing wife and you have a pretty generic cop show. Add in a district attorney who's often more interested in playing politics than solving crimes and his win-at-all-costs bulldog assistant DA, and you have Law & Order.
