"Cali" for california. It is always used by people trying to sound like hip cool insiders, when in fact most Californians seem to hate it.

Frisco or San Antone drives me crazy...as well as the locals. Didn't we go through these before?

See, if I were using it, it would not be to sound hip because that's not an ambition of mine in life. It would be a slur, based on the prominence of the city in Colombia and the popularity of Colombia's main product in certain Hollywood circles. That's what I always thought people were getting at.
I've heard this a couple of times now in Hollywood movies (we all know how they love to start trends with words that make absolutely no sense): using the word "organic" to replace "natural" as in, "Just let it happen organically." My God, those people are so Moderator cut: language pretentious.
