The architectural vernacular is messy in Denver too, whereas Seattle has a mid-century modern vibe that compliments the older Victorian/Craftsman styles in a harmonious way.

Other than the access to outdoor activities and a progressive minded populace, just curious what you see as similarities?
Denver is definitely bro central. Crazy.

I've heard it described as a frat boy tinged, somewhat douchey 'sausage fest'.

Yup - he was the "chill guy" in the frat who moved here from the Midwest, found a job at a cool-sounding but irrelevant startup, bought a brand new 4Runner, and fancies himself a craft beer guy. In reality he doesn't care about beer quality or immersing himself in nature, but he does want to portray that likeness on social media.

Accurate, but a lot of different kinds of bros. Midwest guy moving to Denver is always too cool for school. Really nice guy in general, but got an image to uphold. Always chatting about their prior or upcoming nature excursion.

This is a decent run down:

Few minutes of armchair analysis based on detailed research > 20 years of uninformed, subjective experience.

And yes I've been to all of the 'pretty' places around here so you're not going to BS me with stuff you google.
To be fair, you've already screwed yourself quite a bit through this thread. You couldn't even refute a single point, not even from OP's "weak" refutation.

You mean MREs? Those taste awful. I don't know if we're ready for full fledged drone delivery yet. I'm gonna stay out of the flood zone.
