It cracked me up how many of these are actually true, at least for SoCal, and I live in NorCal. That’s probably another “You know you’re from California when you abbreviates northern to NorCal and southern to SoCal.”
About the In’N’Out Burgers…that is so absolutely perfect. I love In’N’Out and DO sympathize to people who don’t have them.

Eh. Most of these weren’t really true for me. Some were highly exaggerated variations on some aspects of living here, but the rest were just for SoCal

@Laura “five” refers to the five freeway and it really should be “the five”

I figured PCB was that toxin in plastic. But I don’t know what “five” is.

Thanks for the suggestion. I didn’t catch the reference myself. I would correct it, but it’s not my text.
