What's Wrong With "Frisco"?

Why do the folks up in the Bay Area get so agitated when someone refers to San Francisco as "Frisco"?


They don't mind people ordering the "Frisco Burger" ;)

Frisco, about 25 miles north of Dallas, is a nice place to live in TEXAS. http://www.friscotexas.gov/Pages/Default.aspx
The Frisco Rough Riders baseball club in the Texas League are the Double-A affiliate of the Texas Rangers. The girls softball league has been around for many years.

I think the "bend over" comment and "fudge covered banana" joke is pretty racialist myself. I mean, what gives you the right to make fun of the one-eyed lizard meeting up with the brown eye, and how do you know who's the catcher or the pitcher in this kind of situation? And while we're on the subject of the poop shoot...why is a bowling pin so large? And for Lord's sake...if you play the flute, do you have the skins on the wall? Finally, why is there a shortage of gerbils in NorCal?

We ship them down to SoCal along with all the water.

I think the better question is "What isn't wrong with Frisco?"

Certainly makes for a shorter list...

Hard to flush big turds with those low flow toilets.

Okay now...okay...this is real progress! Let's not hold anything back here. Let your feelings go...
Explain in detail what you mean by a piece of sh#t. Are we talking rabbit pellet or a full-fledged dump. Is it tapered...you know like at Dairy Queen? It's important to communicate properly so we get the full understanding of this Pelosi turd you speak of.

Politics and gayness aside, I LOVE SAN FRANCISCO!!! Grew up in the Bay Area (Hillsborough) as a child thru early teens. I visit frequently. Come on guys, BE NICE!!!!
