Cop maneuvers around a beat up sedan with 4 “swarthy” individuals to pull over a late model Suburban with a blonde driver an Golden Retriever - going the same speed.

The blonde will pay the ticket (help support that pension plan!), and the judge will let the “swarthy” individuals go after much hassle on the cops part.

Driving around L.A. lately, every third billboard is for some marijuana-related product or service.

Federal law is essentially inoperative within the city's borders.

I’m in the thick of Hollywood and I still see what there still is to love about this place but...

God willing, I will only stay a few more years. AT this point, not even looking into a different state, but different country. I’ve already lived overseas and my remain oriented that way.

11. You’re asked to give a 10 minute speech, and realize it will be impossible to respect everyone’s pronoun choices and speak in coherent sentences at the same time.

They are all true except the pot ones (EVERYONE KNOWS ITS LEGAL; in LA there are more dispensaries than Starbucks), and #8. The kids aren’t on their cell phones on the playground. Cell phones for little children at schools are frowned upon. True at high schools of course. I doubt that is singular to CA.

Exorbitant taxes and gas prices, homelessness, illegals, rats, plague, typhus, corruption, unaffordable housing, standstill traffic, smog, catastrophic wildfires and earthquakes ... oh, yeah, and In’N Out burgers.

I take issue with that! In my neighborhood, it’s at least 75% of the billboards! (The other 25% are For Your Emmy Consideration billboards for shows I’ve never seen)

In LA we want to wear parkas and fur uggs too, you know! Anything under 65 F is fair game, dude.

Pot is Legal, but taking your confused five year old Child with Gender Identity Issues to a Psychiatrist is Illegal.

You live 19 miles from work, you allow yourself an hour and 30 minutes travel time and are still late for work twice a week.

"You forgot the stench."

The stench from the pot in the air is disgusting there. I grew up in SoCal in the seventies and pot was all around and it didn't bother me. But the pot they use now smells like skunk-- and a dead, unhygienic skunk at that. It's enough to make you retch.
