If recent refugees to SD are any indication a lot of them were among the few sane people left finally hitting eject. Sadly the others are too damn stupid to realize why they had to leave.
For example Colorado escapees are usually cool. Californians on the other hand make me wish that konzentrationshlagers or gulags were still a thing to send them to.
Two kinds of people: those who move to get away from the BS and those who ruin a place, then move to start over again. I moved from the NE to get away from that BS, many coming to FL trying to make it NYC with palm trees.

The only thing I want people from NY, NJ, etc. to bring with them is quality pizzerias, open till 4am pizzerias and quality pizzerias.
Leave the attitude, politics, driving ideas, mafia practices and all that other BS where you left it.
Oh and egg creams. Egg creams are actually pretty good. NY style deli's are ok too, but mostly pizzerias.
But of course they will !
Crazy don't fix. Neither does stupid.
Had to google egg creams ? :)
My brain was thinking 1980s orange julius kinda drink with egg hahahaha NO WHERE CLOSE

So when you are 12 you hear the name and think "that sounds gross" but then somebody explains what it actually is and you think, I better check this out. We had an old fashioned newsstand (where I dutifully picked up monthly copies of Black Belt, Inside Kung Fu and Soldier of Fortune) in the late 70s - early 80s and they also made egg creams.
I'd have been in on it sooner if they called them ice cream sodas like everywhere else in the country. Obviously it's a NY thing. But after that the guy at the counter where I brought my purchases would look at me and say "You want egg cream?" and I'd say "Sure, better give me one." Between that and Carvel Flying Saucers I sometimes was late to the game. At least I understood everything I needed to know about Cozzoli's pizza from day one.

Sooooo, you're saying you like NY-style pizza?
I remember the first time I had NY pizza in actual NYC.
I was underwhelmed. However I remember this pizza and would kneel on someone’s neck for ten minutes in a self defense situation to have but one slice again

It was so, so good. I don’t know what was in it but I have never had anything like it. Especially in the late 90s.

quickly googles carvel flying saucers brain was thinking donut ? Or some kinda cookie ? Maybe some waffle thing ? NOPE OK ice cream sandwich :) ahhahahaha
For sure a coast vs coast thing I reckon :)
Like POG might be top drink and shave ice be the most common treats in the islands ?
any of the hawaiian sun drinks like lilikoi leychee for sure anyone from anywhere else would be like huh :) any every kid in the islands now leychee and how eat em !
or quick grinds spam musubi every check out counter ! especially when still warm ! or coconut mochi ! Diamond head bakery like cream crackers
For mags the free Hawaii fishing report Be like OH you check out that ulua that brudah got on the cover !
I do think this is also why I used to love to travel to other countries for the difference in what folks do know etc...
used to love that side of travel !

I like most "non fast food" pizza, but a really good NY style is hard to beat.

It was so, so good. I don’t know what was in it but I have never had anything like it. Especially in the late 90s.
Wonder if that is an early derivative of Anthony's Coal Fired. For South Florida Franco's and Leonzo's were the ones to beat. Amazing pizza. Only time I've ever been to NYC was at the airport passing through to Europe and back so never had the chance. I imagine if you learn what the good ones are they are amazing. Got to do deep dish in Chicago (3 hour time between flights) and Giordano’s was spectacular.

The other (sure you know types names) that was huge I never got into was the filipino stick fighting stuff think there are a few forms ? Kali and another one (have to google I forgot) ! HUGE but a large amount of Filipinos in the islands so makes sense
For a while( I was in my late 20s when I saw it spike) was like every HS age kid had sticks and no exaggeration pretty much every kid have em sticking out their backpack or with them playing with em walking down the street and would be tons of em playing under the banyan tree clicking away like mad ! Or even on the beach I would see em going at it ! Looked fun though enough pain to get good not enough to make you say no was my view from the outside
Reckon could have been like a yoyo phase or frisbee phase or whatever as later it dropped but was cool to see for a while I figured maybe some guy started a class in school and it caught on ?

Arnis, Kali, Arnis De Mano...variations of the same thing more or less. Cool thing is if you know sticks you sorta already know machete's (or bolo's as they call them) and vice versa.
Good thing those sticks weren't tied together or you'd have "OMG deadly nunchaku that can move at speeds of 250 mph (assuming you are in a car going 250 mph) and can generate 10,000 lbs of force with a simple flick of the wrist." South Florida late 70s, early 80s every kid 10-16 had a pair in their back pocket and it was sometimes funny to hear the BS cops would tell them about their teflon coated "cop killer" nunchaku.
Arnis made practical sense at least as most thing you can pick up will function like a stick.
Damn you Brah! Now I stay hungry.
Hahahahah
What you like get one plate lunch now ! Me I like have Loco moco brah
Funny enough I eat healthy now but had hamburger and eggs and pulled up this post (no gravy or rice for me anymore) but was eating freaking choke amount when I read this hahahahahah I still make them for my kids though !
Like most island folks know Redondos portugese sausge ! Funny how some things you miss so much

Too funny. I see you picked up a little pidgin. It's weird, when I go back to visit there, I immediately can go back into speaking that way with friends and family, but can transition right out of it when needed. My wife mocks me sometimes at home because I fall into the pidgin around her since she understands it too. Too funny.

I think your thinking of Escrima, which is Arnis...but called Escrima more in Hawaii.

Cool. My kickstart was Kajukenbo.
Most of the time when I go to the pistol range I see people from unfree states trying out their brand new gun. That's the first thing they do when they come to TX and get settled in.

Then turn into FUDD's.
I like it because they think they are better educated and it turns out they had a Union job and a GED.
Bah.
I am gonna net it out for you fellows, this coming from a 4th gen Florida Cracker.
First and foremost, the influx of Yankees coming to my state and goat ****ing it is the real problem. A good portion, a mojority of those folks have no manners, are hypocrites (leftists), and have taken advantage of the good nature and easy going lifestyle Floridians have traditionally exemplified. This applies to their first generation children as well, they aren't true Floridians. Watching this go on for decades and decades, leaving NY, Jersey, Penn, Conn,Mass, Delaware, etc. for several reasons, but often because they want to enjoy what we offer, the lifestyle, yet when they get here, they are determined to change it to be like the place they left! WTF? Plus, most of them bring their leftist/commie idealoly with them. If I had my druthers, I would send the vast majority of them back.
I found out and understood exactly how the Hawaiians feel many years ago.

Yup...but in Hawaii, it's still old school to an extent. You act all "New Yorker" in Hawaii and it won't be long before you get your ass handed to you. You will literally get pulled from your car and get your ass beat. That attitude still doesn't fly there.
I know quite a few Polynesians. They live CONUS cause they can't afford the islands.
I spent a summer in Laie (north shore of Oahu) back in HS. Working for family friends cutting banana, burning cane, etc. Lived in a little camper trailer with about a thousand geckos for roomies. That life has all but disappeared in the islands.

Oh yea...that life is pretty much gone. No sugar cane anymore. The West side where I lived was mostly all sugar cane. Replaced with houses. That's the thing though. Most of the older locals there are still living in the 70's and 80's in their heads, hoping it will get back to the old days one day. They can't come to terms with the reality that the old, great Hawaii is dead and gone and is never coming back. I left accepting that fact and my younger brother is leaving shortly who has also come to terms with that reality.
We can never go back...only forward...whether you like it or not. Many Native Americans learned that the hard way, many Hawaiians and local residents of Hawaii will too. Unfortunately it will be too late for most when they do.
I’m ready to immigrate to Rhodesia. Unironically and seriously.
Surely there’s a DACA for Dreamers like me.
I just want to live on a farm with rural life and Nuclear Power and wear booty shorts.
Only with SR-25s because FALs are lame.

I felt that. I have no problems displacing and replacing someone else in their own land, filling it with children who look like me, and making sure everybody votes the right way.
Pull that bandaid now

I get it, we used to be the same way, but the elitist left douche nozzles have gotten elected to local and state government, and have fundamentally changed the "old way" as they have in Hawai'i in some respects. In Hawai'i you still have localism, as there hasn't been the generational influx of huge numbers of people like in Florida. Every union hack in the NE has been moving to the FLA for many, many decades, and like I previously stated, they bring their commie ideals with them.
Maybe I shoulda said I know how the American Indian felt when the white eye showed up and the numbers were too big to handle.
You only have to watch the fist 60 seconds of this scene to know what I am talking about, but watch the whole thing. Substitute yankees for white people (really the same thing) and substitute Floridian for Sioux.

Yup. People can't wake up to the fact that....It's been done for eons...the rules don't change for anyone...in the grand scheme of things your not special...nor is your culture...cultures have existed and been snuffed out time and time again....our snippet of time in this world is no more relevant then the rest.
Hahahhha whats funny is I still use certain words as they are first in my mind unless I stop think what is the word ? so still always use/say
Pau
Puka
Holo holo
Pupus I kinda quit using cause the looks when I ask :) hahahahah
Still like talk story with folks
Slipper/slippa my boy calls em flip flops and I say NO that is what politicians do :) then I say slippers and he give me a 12 yr old boy grunt !
The pidgin ting slips out
I like get .... or the you go get kinda phrase I no can get rid of ?
Thanks say like tanks for thanks and three as tree, thing as ting speech thing still there
Or when things go bad the laugh and smile instead of twigging out or getting upset
I homesick all the time BUT the reality I am better off my kids are better off on mainland as much as I hate to think that way but I know its true really tough mental thing for many of us I reckon no there is no going back
I dead serious think I want to go spend some time in some tiny village in Portugal or Italy or Japan (japan being unique) with a bunch of old locals to those cultures just for a change to see what its like for that slow down and live life thing as I have some friends that have done that and they say once you kinda break in they are very cool reckon to do that at some point for a year or more in each country then try to come back around and spend more time in my fav one of the bunch ? Why not I figure good change of life experience
When I lived in the Caribbean I had more in common with those islanders than mainlanders here ?

Man, the ONE TIME my teacher came back from Hawaii with real Brown Sugar (and not the kind in the box at the store) and everyone got 5 (1 lb ziplock bags). I sorta understood what heroin addicts must feel like, when it was gone....that was a tough come back. My mom suggested using it to make cookies and I was like screw that, we aren't wasting this on cookies. Oatmeal was never the same after that.
Arnis, Kali, Arnis De Mano...variations of the same thing more or less. Cool thing is if you know sticks you sorta already know machete's (or bolo's as they call them) and vice versa.

Last time I saw that was probably late 90s for BSO. I remember seeing it as early as 1981. Pretty sure Joe Hess introduced the program out at BCC as early as 1979, maybe even earlier.
Even PDs using Orcutts have run into "image problems" lately. Seems no matter how comprehensively trained, somebody eventually goes Babe Ruth with their compliance weapon. Kinda sad, the PR-24 was incredibly versatile when used correctly but the Rodney King event pretty much marked the end of that and every other effective baton. As usual seems LAPD screws it up for everyone else.

I was on motors for quite sometime and a few of them came to my department for training. Could have been a motorman thing

PR24s are a’ight I guess but if you don’t keep up on it; you forget all the ninja moves. I used it more as an impromptu break and rake or a reaching stick than anything

But of course. The Maglite, especially with LED, has been very handy. The PR24 got left in vehicle, the collapsible was too bulky, the ASP was never a good impact weapon.
You will find as one advances in age in Law Enforcement that they carry less and less and their guns and flashlights get smaller and smaller.
But the maglite is the truth

The PR-24 was fun to roll in your hand, kinda like what those NYC cops do with the lanyard on their batons. Rolling a PR-24 while talking to somebody makes them take notice.

If your car computer is an Apple MacBook then that is Based. If that is a Dell or HP (which it looks like) then soz. I have a Dell. I wanna shoot it.
I had a couple of straight sticks but never used one including a cocobolo.
I’m hopelessly lazy so Maglite makes right. Thanks for sharing.

You hit the nail on the head. It’s a dell and sometimes I’d like to take the straight stick to it for sure.
