DON'T Move to Seattle, it SUCKS! (Most of Washington too) (property tax, living)

Living in the dark, gray, clouds, cold drizzle really is as bad as you fear.

What I really question is someone’s motivation to register on this forum being to dig out some obscure old topic in Seattle thread and post a lengthy dating complaint. What’s up with people doing these odd first posts, where are you coming from and how do you land on these threads? Is it what internship in Russian troll factory looks like - you need to post a dating complaint in Seattle forum and if your message generates enough engagement, you are hired and can move on to important things like Facebook?

And while we are on this topic, my second favorite is account that posts same message saying “nothing” in “what do you like about Seattle” thread every 1 year with +-1 month randomization. All their other messages on the forum are strangely bot like too.

Ok I am done with the rant, now where did I leave my tin foil hat again.

I am already dreading the dark days ahead and constant dampness. Its a very valid letdown that affects people.

It's funny when someone with the same grammatical style as a previous poster makes a random post in a thread and says the same things, but expects no one to notice. This is why I tend to ignore these whining threads.

1) The markets are superior with friendly people
2) The weather is varied, temperate and the air is cleaner than most cities if not all.
3) The Ferry System is unique and beautiful.
4) Some of the best fish in the world (except Alaska)
5) Drivers compared to other cities I've lived in are courteous. Don't think so? Try San Diego.
6) Wages are high.
7) Boite restaurants are numerous and truly unique
8) Paine Field just opened. Try smiling TSA people.
9) Health care is good to superior.
10) Schools are excellent to exceptional.
11) NHL!
12) Book stores are authentic
13) Art Scene is trendy (could be better)
14) Did I mention the restaurants?
15) Proximity to wild is good to excellent.
16) It snows!

Any questions? See List.

There isn't snow nor NHL in Seattle. When did you visit?

The ferry system is uniquely - bad.

I predict you will be back again and again and saying I am going to ignore these threads. And complain about us whiners AGAIN.

The idiotic thing is its a whining thread for us to let off steam. Is the thread title that hard to understand ????? Or do I need to drag you back to grade school??

Please, that’s not the point, re read the message and notice that it’s user’s first post on the forum ever. The usual first post is normally something like “I am moving to Ticondenooga, Nebrahoma. Which neighborhoods have good schools?”. Not a lengthy dating complaint in an old abandoned thread.

*puts on thick frame glasses*

Back in the day, people used to put hard work and pride into troll posts. What is wrong with young people today?

I ignored this one for more than a year, I only looked at it because someone posted on it again after it was dead for a while and it caught my eye when I was bored. I now see that it would have been ripe for Complain About Seattle Dating Bingo, so I guess I missed my chance there. I'm not really complaining about the whining this time, more that people can't seem to let it go even after they have had their say. You seem personally offended and I wasn't even talking about you.

And yet, a great many of us wake up each day and really love it here. Are we wrong? No. Are you wrong? No. Find somewhere that makes you happy, we all deserve that.

DON'T GET ME STARTED!
You every date someone from Ticondenooga? Between the halitosis, body hair, and athletes foot EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM possess I'll never go back.

I invited one Tocondenoogan for drinks and some Netflix. She guzzled all my Listerine, insist we watch Tele-Tubbies then started dragging her butt across the carpet, back and forth, back and forth. I told her it's best we end the night she took out her retainer and tried to stuff it in my mouth! Don't know what that was about but not my kind of intimacy.

Freakshow people, man.

It does snow in Seattle, where were you? More and more frequently it feels like.



This February Seattle and its suburbs was walloped with a series of snowstorms. Buried my neighborhood with 12 inches easily. Shut down businesses and schools for days; some grocery stores ran out of food due to weather fear mongering.
