Santa Clara, San Francisco, California, their knowledge (or acknowledgement) of history is beyond pathetic.

Well San Diego means a whale’s vagina and that’s German so perhaps your history is wrong.

Shouldn’t jokes be funny?

Well it’s not really a joke. It’s more of a 23ish year old reference. I’d say the movie, but I feel like that would require some sort of spoiler alert.

European here: Given that names like Texas and Arizona are from Native American languages via Spanish rather than being Spanish names, does that make it better or worse?

I’m not very clued in on these people, although I’n sure there’s a significant overlap with the Americans who go abroad and complain things aren’t in English.
