Apr 24 Word of the Day
A cultural and aesthetic mind-state that prioritizes making money, even as an “underground” or “radical” creator. The work isn’t made for money, but it’s the money that matters the most.

5th largest city in California; 1st dumbest & drunkest city in America. Colloquially known by locals as "the Raisin Capital", Fresno is more appropriately known as "where?" by everyone else.
Besides it's raisins, Fresno is known for it's many other products.
Fresno's exports: smart people, liberals, musicians, methamphetamine, Pismo Beach enthusiasts.
Fresno's imports: dimwits, conservatives, tons of Sudafed

Good: Short drive to many other destinations in the state. Summer weather is hot, but usually not unbearable. Cheaper real estate than elsewhere in California.
Bad: Very bad fog after rain. Winter is miserably cold, despite not being cold enough to snow more than a few flurries every ten years. Rush hour gridlocks on Shaw and Herndon near the freeways and 41 at 180 (though traffic here certainly beats LA's infamous 405). Many rough roads (repairs on 99 are LONG overdue). Not a whole lot to do, either, despite the beautiful new Savemart Center arena.
Ugly: Air pollution. Many parts of the city south of Shaw Avenue are not very pretty (especially downtown, effectively just a government center and expansive homeless refuge).

Fresno's downtown, despite efforts by the City Council, has never fully recovered from the initial growth northward many decades ago.

Fresno is the 8th largest city in the state of California. Located in the central San Joaquin Valley, close to the geographic center of the state, Fresno's population base is rapidly growing.
Largely based on agriculture type businesses, Fresno is also becoming a popular location for technology based companies, because of it's centralized location.

The most pathetic city in California and possibly in all of America. Here are the reasons for that:
1. There are more people who live off welfare in Fresno than people with jobs
2. Most of the citizens have a big infatuation for the Fresno State Bulldogs, who have won nearly nothing and thrive at it
3. Fresno has the pathetic gang in America called the Bulldogs, who took their name from the Fresno State Bulldogs. All of the gang members are Mexicans and have never completed high school.
4. Very unexpected temperatures. One day it could rain for 7 straight hours and the next day it would be hot as fuck.
5. Rarely would you see a well educated man/woman here. Everyone else either lives poorly making $10,000 a year or live off welfare.
6. Most of the students are obsessed with their school. I went to my schools rally a few days ago and I nearly went deaf.
7. Bad air pollution. Heat waves come by every year where people end up dying.
8. If you like listening to the radio, you should reconsider it when you're in Fresno. The only thing on the radio is Pitbull, Pitbull, and Pitbull. The reason for this is because nearly all of the Mexican girls love him.
And so on.

Fresno Bulldogs fan: WE ARE THE BEST FUCK USC AND FLORIDA
Me: You're just jealous because you know for a fact that both the Trojans and Gators would stomp on the Bulldogs.
Fresno Bulldogs fan: FUCK U!!!!! (runs away crying)
