I Hate Seattle

Seattleites have got to be the most socially retarded people I've ever encountered. Seriously.

First off, nobody makes eye contact. Weirdest thing. They either look at the wall behind you or your shoulder or the floor, but they never make eye contact. Not sure why.

Secondly, everybody communicates by email. People don't really talk to each other. They sit in front of their laptops sipping their 5 dollar lattes writing their blogs or some shit.

People here are terrified of conflict. Once I had a job at a local healthcare facility. Anyways, I was there for about 8 months. I thought things were going very well. I got along well with my coworkers and my supervisors as well. One day my main supervisor calls me in to her office and lets me know that it's just not working out and that I'm getting fired. I obviously ask her why. She tells me that there's all these reports about me about how terrible of a worker I am and that several supervisors have talked to me about my behavior at work. I ask her to let me know what's written in those reports. She tells me that they're confidential and that I can't see them. I also let her know that no supervisor has talked to me about any problem at work (this is God's honest truth). I was actually to ask for a pay raise a couple of weeks later. She replies that they assure her they have. It was a very upsetting time for me and I racked my mind for weeks trying to figure out what I did wrong. Anyways, I still don't know why I got fired from there. I guess people here are just terrified of conflict.

Women here are grotesquely ugly. Overweight, don't take care of themselves, weird dreadlocks, chick mohawks, a lot of them just look like hobos. I'd say about half the women here are lesbians anyways. The rest are very frumpy and unapproachable. My neighbor lady wears sweatpants, a parka, and a backpack every day to work. Oh yea, and hiking boots. Thankfully, I have a wonderful girlfriend and don't have to play the dating game in Seattle.

Men here are grotesquely ugly too. Skinny bodies, skinny jeans, thick ass glasses, weird facial hair, kinda smelly half the time, no balls whatsoever. If you're a single woman, Seattle is basically hell.

Seriously, most awful people imaginable.

Actually the comments were more poignant than the video itself.

A few things I noticed about the video:
1) "Seattle is a microcosm of a larger social trend"
WTF? Seattle isn't a microcosm of shit. Seattle is it's own little fucked up bizarro world. This woman clearly needs to get out of the Northwest more often.

2) "Seattle people are polite"
I haven't found the people here polite at all. For example if I say hello to one of my neighbors in my apartment building, more than half the time they don't even respond, they just stare in my general direction with this completely vacuous look in their eyes.

3) "Belltown used to be a socially thriving artist's community"
Translation: "It's all the transplants fault!"
Again, this woman really needs to get out of the Northwest and experience the rest of the world. Guess what, lady? Technology and the internet have exploded everywhere in the past 15 years, not just Seattle! People use computers in other places too! And in the rest of the world people still manage to act like human beings!
