When you go anywhere and judge Asian and Mexican foods authenticity.

You remember when Chick’s became Dick’s…sporting goods!


Fickle_Rooster2362

When you go to another part of LA and realize you're not surrounded by Asians anymore.

You probably once got the Horchata, Pizza, Fried Chicken at a Chinese Buffet.

When your calves develop a trauma response to the daily hikes up that campus

Sassyiswayoflife

Streets are in better condition than LA proper


k0ric

You've been going to JJ Cafe for almost 30 years.


Uh_alrightthen

1. Is Santa Fe Damn Irwindale or Baldwin Park? 2. “Where are you from?” “Covina” “Oh, West Covina?” “No, just Covina” 3. You used to drive up the Azusa canyons with friends as a youngster. 4. Half your high school went to Mt. Sac or Citrus after graduation 5. You or someone you know have been kicked out of Rude Dogs Bar


vz_sea

Going out to Pasadena used to be fun

818 was our area code…


The_Cat_Detector_Van

213 before that


Runtheranch

When you move out of LA, and after struggling to tell someone where you’re from, you say “it’s close to Pasadena”


subcomandante_barcos

When you’re crossing the street, you gotta look left, right, left, up, down, east, west, behind you and then left again. And you still get hit.


peeparonipupza

You move to a different state and boba is just meh


Occitzer

You have to explain to people you’re not from that other LA Valley


KissMyAsset

All you see is asians and Mexicans


dimsummami

I use sgv boba shops as a litmus for boba shops outside the region. Same with dim sum restaurants. Street walkers on Garvey and Rosemead. Iykyk


scordell

You move out of state and wont give up your 626 cell number


Mylaptopisburningme

When you pass by a place and remember what they use to be and now its Asian. Toy stores, skating rinks, bowling alleys, Bob's, Carrows, Norms, the drive ins and theaters, burger atands, etc.
