I knew that would come up. I just bring it up because my grandpa was always pissed that his first name was forever sullied and that Joseph came out unscathed.

I just remember him complaining when I was a kid about how Stalin killed even more people and Joseph was still a popular name.

Shove their moronic hypocrisy straight up their racist asssssssssholes. Or they could rename it Gaytown, Texas or Trans City Texas, or Homeless Texas, or Mexico City Texas, or Progressive Texas.

Beyond the fact that your average salary here is higher than most places, it starts with living in the boonies. You may work in LA, but you live in Riverside or Corona, which means you spend half your life on a train or in a car because the toll roads are pretty expensive to take all the time. Then it becomes an issue of living within your means, which usually means having roommates if you're single, or both husband/wife having jobs and keeping your kids in the public school system, which in and of itself is a horrible option no matter where you live. But don't let anyone kid you. There's a reason there are miles and miles of homeless people in this state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
