Golden Spoon > Sex (almost)
I've been sober for 48 hours. I totally deserve a keychain or something.

I know kids from Orange County generally bitch about how crappy it is cuz everyone's the same and blah blah blah... but seriously, Orange County is heaven compared to LA. Well, by Orange County, I'm referring to the region along the Pacific Coast from Seal Beach to Newport Beach extending inland no more than 10 minutes from the ocean... my Orange County. I'll agree that the rest isn't anything to get excited about.

Reasons Why Orange County Is Better Than LA
1. If you get on the freeway at 9:45 at night, you're pretty much guaranteed to be able to go 80+.
2. A trip to the liquor store really can take only 5 minutes.
3. Two words: Golden Spoon
4. Hot surfers > metrosexual posers
5. My car is not considered big at all, and fits into pretty much any parking spot I find.
6. That being said, parking spots are usually easy to find. Most of my Orange County friends are terrible parallel parkers... but who gives a fuck cuz they'll never have to do it.
7. Golden Spoon
8. There are two giant and amazing malls, South Coast Plaza and Fashion Island, that I can get to (including parking) in 15 minutes.
9. I can be at a perfectly nice beach in 7 minutes (including parking).
10. Danielle's incredibly nice 2 br, 2 bath apartment in Newport with 2 pools, etc: $1805/month. My decent 2 br/2 bath apartment in Westwood with a scary elevator and shady jacuzzi on roof: $2500/month.
11. If you go into a restaurant wearing a bathing suit under your clothes, nobody gives you dirty looks.... in fact, your server asks how the waves were.
12. There is no Eurochow (aka crappiest place in the world) in Orange County
13. Did I mention Golden Spoon?
14. Los Caballeros > LA Fitness times 100... not only because the equipment is nicer, but also because you never have to wait to use it.
15. Less people. God I hate people.
16. Air conditioning is not necessary because there's a wonderful ocean breeze.
17. The majority of lights have left turn arrows... and yet there's less traffic.

I could keep going... but I think I've made my point. LA does have some advantages though: a decent bar within walking distance and stripper stores. That's about it though.
