"the I-5"

[benDASHDASH]

ha, i was curious how long it would take for someone to add rob

[BIG$COTT]

its short for interstate, so it would be awkard to say "the interstate 5"

[Jon325i]

so wait, california people, in the usual struggle to be cool, say "I'm going down the interstate 5 to get the there" ?

that place needs to fall off already. Once jon escapes though.

Thanks for sparing me ;-)

however, you dont say "interstate" so its not so awkward. you do have a point though, i should've changed one of the options to "the 5" like mentioned earlier. i only recently started saying "i" because ive been brainwashed by washington ppl.

YES, THANK YOU to our savior!

Although, I already voted for the CORRECT thing to say.

I'm with Rob on this one...California should no longer exist...lol

The I5 is the correct grammar.

Fucking waffleswaffleswaffleswaffles of a fucking shitfuck piece of fucking tarmac would probably be more appropriate (considering I'm having a shit day)

It is a Norcal - Socal thing.

In Norcal, people generally don't use the. (take 205 to 5 north...)
In Socal, people use the. jump on the 5.

Nobody I know says I though. There is no need to say I-5

I am southern cal and
I say THE, and i dont say "I'. I am right mother fuckers.

[2002maniac]

I'm from southern Ca and I always say I-5

[permit]

"I took the 5."

Silly overachievers.

[AdamF 88iS]

I use the 'the' as well.

[ptownTSI]

"while driving down I-5 today"

"yeah, take the next exit after 5 and 80 cross, to go to downtown Sacramento"

"if you're on the 5, then 99 runs parallel to you for the most part"

i can see myself saying all 3.

[h0lmes]

most definately "I-5"

[DarkWing6]
