The_Raif said: Not all of us are this way, you know... just the Washington natives... oh, and anyone south of Nebraska.
Considering you and Raif come from an area where every square inch of the entire state or province looks exactly like every other one, you could be forgiven for assuming that all of Washington is just like Seattle. But you won't be forgiven, at least by me.
I was raised outside the Puget Sound region, and on behalf of the million or so Washingtonians who don't live here, I would like to iterate the following: Washington is not Seattle. Repeat that a few hundred times, lest you forget.
See, Washington has this thing that you probably haven't heard of in Wisconsin or Ontario. It's called geography, and it means that not everywhere is like Bellevue. I know this is a difficult concept. I know you can go to Milwaulkee and knwo exactly what all of Wisconsin looks like, and that a photo of the Toronto outskirts is pretty much representative of all of Ontario. But that doesn't work here
