"I'm from this place called Orange County."


Both the main character and his girlfriend at different points in this movie describe being from Orange County as if it's some podunk town no one else has ever heard of, rather than what it is: A place that's home to over three million people. How absurdly laughable. I especially think students and faculty at STANFORD (in California!) would know where the hell it is.

"The O.C." always made me laugh. Ever since other cities started favoring acronyms (I guess to sound cool like "L.A." or "D.C.") people from those areas want to convey some myth about their own places that they're somehow entirely different from other places they sit next to.
