Topic City
Print and cut out this card, which has the 10 most likely responses you'll get from Seattleites if you bring up any negatives about their city. Wait for the discussion to end, hand them this card, and tell them to have a nice day. Better yet, if you're a betting person, bet them that you already know their responses and then hand this to them to collect your prize.

1. That happens EVERYWHERE (response to a negative observation about Seattle)
2. Statistically, Seattle is top in ____
3. Oh, yeah? I visited [city name here] and it was a terrible place; I'd never go back, good luck to you.
4. Well, you're not from here, so you don't know.
5. Maybe if you changed your attitude the natives would like you. Sounds like you don't spend enough time outside. This is all your fault.
6. It's not us, it's the rude transplants who are giving you a hard time.
7. You must not be very well educated if you're criticizing Seattle. By the way, that was improper use of that word you just said, FYI.
8. If you don't like it, go home (this one cracks me up whenever said/posted in response to a person's gripe is that people in Seattle aren't very welcoming).
9. Oh, sure, it rains here, but it's so mild most of the year, you don't notice -- it's really warm and sunny in the summer, in fact, it can get downright balmy. Oh, wait, you're griping about no AC? Haha, well that completely invalidates any argument you have. Who needs AC when it's 89 degrees and muggy, anyway?
10. Traffic, well, yeah, traffic could be better, but it still only takes me 10 minutes to get from Pike Place to Bellevue.

I am definately printing this out so I can remember all these comments I actually heard while living in Seattle. Either you are talking to all of Blueberry Man's relatives or they teach these statements in Grade School and High School to repeat. Hell maybe its Seattle's version of a Jihad movement to indoctrinate everyone to spew the same verbage. We shall call it now Sheatad! (she-at-ahd)

Gettting off topic .Today in the news a pedophile from Washington state who moved to L.A. was complaining because the community and the city have come together and have banned him from going anywhere near children permanently. In his words it's "Orwellian" and "nightmarish.". He also said he thought L.A. would be a nice place for him because of all the kittie attractions. He also said earlier in the week he was moving back to Washington.
It’s was funny watching this story unfold. When I first heard this man was moving out of the state I said to my self good luck with that one. No other state is as lax with this sort of thing as Washington. It's pretty sad that people like this seek refuge here and feel comfortable here and why not? It's perfectly ok for a pedophile to live next to a school and hang out where children play. In fact, the news team seemed sympathetic for the man. I wonder how Seattle PR is going to sugar coat this one .Wow what a great place to live..... If you're a pedophile.
