Tendency of the west coast to overrate. For instance, if a show has rave reviews in Frisco you should wait until it gets as far east as Chicago before believing it.
Possible explanations include laidback, non-critical attitudes, drug use, and simply less exposure to good culture.
The term originated in the drum corps circle, where corps are numerically judged across the country and the scores coming from the west are disregarded.
Wow, these guys are supposed to be fantastic!
Don't believe the hype, it's just west coast inflation.

A recreation that is characterized by the inability to bail out (as in skateboarding) or brake (as in bicycling). This makes even routine rolling an extreme sport unless there are no hills or traffic.
Stylistically, it is possible to be as dashing as Mercury, the winged-foot messenger god. However skaters are usually squatting and flailing their arms as they try to balance, so they end up looking pretty flamboyant.
Athletically, you can go for speed, skateboard style tricks, or dance moves with cones (slalom). Unless you have flat wide space, survival is usually challenge enough.
When rollerblading, always choose a route with no stop signs at the bottom of hills. And whatever you do, don't bend at the waist and flail your arms in circles like a complete fruit.

The masculine sound of electric power, usually a motor or heating element.
When some chode drove by revving his mustang 5.0, nobody turned their head. Then when I pulled away from the curb on my electric scooter, all the girls were smitten by my ripping tronsurge.

Rabbits or pet rodents, particularly attention-loving or excitable ones. Although it is well known that rabbits only bite the wicked.
I like to pet the fuzzy little fingerbiters.

A mediocre vacation destination. Instead of beaches and sun you get rocks and rain, yet instead of mountains you get molehills. Their proudest offering is their caustic apple cider.
"I'm going to france for vacation."
"That'll be great! Sun, beaches, wine, babes, fashion!"
"Actually, I'll be touring the ancient chapels and cider orchards of the north of france ."
"Ohhhhhhhhh.
