so, who calls california cali? personally, i'm sick of hearing people call it that. my brother moved there last year and he says that no one calls the state cali. anyone else annoyed by this? is this a midwest thing or what? please let me know so i can tell my sorry midwest friends that california should not be called cali. or am i wrong? help a brutha out...

only people who aren't from california say cali.  just like people that aren't from california like to make assumptions about what life is like in california based off of what they see on the OC

people say 'wash' instead of washington. so it gets confusing when your talking about cleaning your clothes or washington

people from california call it california. cali kinda fits the stereotype, so i think thats why people us cali. CA sounds weird. like "hey im going to CA this spring break, im pumped" just doesnt work

ive lived in california my whole life. the only time I call it cali is when I'm typing it, cause its easier. But its not even like i do it all the time. we dont really reference ourselves here in california, cause we instinctivly know that we are better than everyone else.
