"Zonie" was a derogatory term made up by Californians about their neighbors to the east. But because most of us long-time Arizonans couldn't care less about California, we use their term proudly to reference ourselves. I suppose it is much like me using the nickname "Dutch". Although I am of Dutch decent, the term "dutch" was a derogatory term directed towards Germans in the mid-1800's in the eastern US cities (of which I again could care less about).elevan said:Welcome to BYH.
What is a zonie? (Sorry, I should probably know... )
