California smile 

Forcing someone on to the ground, commanding them to open their mouth and place their teeth on the side of a curb or slab of concrete, and then stomping on the back of their head/neck, effectively smashing all of their teeth, breaking their jaw, and possibly killing them.

california state of mind 

A play on the phrase "new york state of mind"; the act of thinking, acting, and possessing the traits of a true californian. Such characteristics include frequenting the beach, using slang known only to true californians, eating beach cuisine like acai bowls, or operating a vehicle like a california driver. Most people with the california state of mind are not afraid to set trends or act differently than non-californians because they know deep down the californian way is always right (excluding the economy). Having a California State of mind is closely tied with being under the influence of californication, and can be seen in one's laid back, dgaf-like personality.
That dude totally has the california state of mind; he listens to trendy indie music in the car while eating a california burrito, talking on the phone, and going 85 mph on his way to ocean beach.

California slingshot

Using the shoulder of a five lane freeway to pass a slow moving car in the left hand lane. Often this move is made by a douche bag that is driving a late model European coupe or sedan.

Father (driving): Don't ever do that shit!

Son: Do what?

Father: The California slingshot, son.
