It's San Francisco or The City, not Frisco.

It's California, not cali.

What hairbrained subpopulation started that annoying expression?

well i aint on nowhere near your continent.. but i know how irritating some of these nickanames/short forms can be..

i'm tryna think tho who sang the song which has the line 'i going going, back to back, to Cali Cali..' Tupac?? Biggie??? one of them..

Just take a deep breath, count backwards from 10 and u'll be alright..

Hi Hank Hill, you actually adopt the name "Hank Hill" since the very 1st time that I called you Hank Hill.....I'm flattered...thankyou.

Back to your current question, I agree with you 100% on this rediculous shortcuts. For instance, the word "Sacramento" but I hear many people pronounce it as Sacrameno all the time....it's stupid.

Wrong state!

Cali is the designation for the street in Miami where all the nightlife is happening (8th street)

I dunno, I've lived in the bay area my entire life and have no problem with either Cali or 'the City'.
