I grew up in Northern California and whenever I was down there I deliberately dropped the "the" before 1, 5, 10, 15, 57, 71, 91, 101, 105, 110, 210, 405, 605, 710, and any others I can't remember at the moment, as a retaliation for hearing the goddamn earrape that is "the 80" as well as a direct challenge to Anthony Villaraigosa and God.
