This is a short intro to this group. This is basically here to allow people living in the 2nd largest city in the US and probably THE most spread-out city of all in the US to communicate with each other, talk LA politics, talk about our many sports teams -- or not, talk about LA events, maybe even organize LA specific events/political things. I'm a native Angeleno, my dad was born here too so that makes me second-generation.
A little music...from someone not even from around here, who actually dissed us and is really talking about the city in Chile...I love the song anyway...
And the ironic thing is that this is close to how the original Latino settlers by the Rio Reina de Los Angeles de Porcincula pronounced the name of our city. Technically there should be a tilde over the name of our group. It should really be called Kos Angeleños, but I didn't think it would work, so I didn't bother.
What is it about this town? It's loved and hated at the same time, it's shallow and silly and also a place of surprising profundity. It's both the Entertainment Industry's company town and actually full of people who aren't in "the biz" and could not care less about it.
Anyway, if you're from here, if you live here, if you love it, if you have your issues with it, this is your group. Have fun, play nice, don't get into USC vs. UCLA pie fights, because I WILL terminate with extreme prejudice.
And yeah, I love X too.
