Growing up in California, this song exemplifies exactly what I think of it. But beyond saying "Screw California," I like to think of it in the way that Colin Hanks put it in Orange County. The question was, James Joyce hated his homeland (Ireland), but what would he have been if he hadn't grown up there and experienced what he had?
It seems to me that the unfortunate events that we see in our childhood, and attribute to our homeland, are actually the driving force that pushes us to become something better. I feel that this song attests to that.
