Such fun! Playing on the stereotype of Cal is both hilarious and a bummer. I wish there were more in the way of comparing Nobel Laureates and academic bona fides.

Nah, that's just arrogant and what Stanford would do. This is nationally beloved because it's self-deprecating, unique, and absurd.

Yes, something along the lines of university ranking, elitism, and such.

If we post some ideas here, will some artistic Bears come along a put something together?

How about this: You use an animation of Brainiac shrinking and capturing the city of Kandor into a bottle. But replace Brainiac with Cal Nobel Prize winners, and of course replace Kandor with Calahassee!

Change Brainiac’s skin color from green to blue.

So much fertile ground with Florida's first drag queen governor Rhonda Santis going woke after Cal's visit!

These are all great, except you don't mess with Waffle House. That's as un-American as stealing a catalytic converter from a Wienermobile.

These memes also have a real benefit in associating "Cal" with the University of California at Berkeley among the public outside the San Francisco Bay area, many of whom think it's Cal State or (for SGV residents and Big Bang Theory viewers) Cal Tech.
