    Nobody in Seattle, Portland, Vancouver BC, SF or LA has the right to brag about anything.

    Placing low in the least-worse categories are all that's left.

    What an achievement.

    Reed College used to be one of the top liberal arts schools on the entire west coast.

    I think something changed at some point. I had a prof or two that talked about trying to get employed at Reed. There's weird institutional things going on there that bring them down.

    If you're serious about academics, you don't even go to school in the state of Oregon anymore. You go to school in California or Warshington or somewhere else.

    Hi @IPukeOregonGrellow !!!
    As someone who’s very close to a former department chair at Reed, you are absolutely correct about the top-down institutional issues. The children are running the daycare over there.
    Reed's tuition is $60,000. For that you get to be taught that you are an irredeemable racist, that America is a force for evil in the world and that communism is the utopian future. Not a real bargain. You would get a better education in community college taking basic courses in math, science and economics.

    You can learn the same crap for free by being homeless in SF or Oakland.

    Save the 240k and spend a few years in the Tenderloin, instead.

    Nothing is more Seattleish than saying, "at least we're not as bad as (fill in the city)."

    Seattle is the passive-aggressive capital of the universe. And that's how people here think.

    The entire 509 area code nods in agreement.

    Not a voting issue for Snow as this isn't a federal concern. It's not like the next President, Kameltoe wasn't bailing out these insurrectionists.

    What's important is that people here on the board like him and that he and Flea have become close friends.

    Now imagine that your life is so pathetic you value your "friendship" with a lightweight fucking moron like Flea.
    Bob, you remember when politics were supposed to be kept to yourself? How did you survive back then? You’re a guppy that eats up any article or video that supports your views. There is real life outside Bobby. Sometimes it’s even nice.
    What, are you kidding? We're in the middle of a Pandemic, Roady! Where's your mask, you murderer?

    We're all gonna die!!

    You remember in the 1960s when commie democrats were rioting and blowing sh*t up and throwing someone's medals over the White House fence? Yeah, I remember when politics was kept to yourself, not.

    PS I seem to remember a group of Americans with a really deep tan who also were politically active in the 1960s. Too bad they didn't keep their politics to themselves. Just bad manners.

    No, I don't ever recall at anytime in my life like that. Any other strawmen you want to ass rape?
