159 Years Ago

[Fr8monkey]

Do you know what it was like back in 1850, 159 years ago?

California became a state.
The State had no electricity.
The State had no money.
Almost everyone spoke Spanish.
There were gunfights in the streets.

So basically, it was just like California today.

Spoiler :

Except the women had real breasts and the men didn't hold hands.
