Down on the rest of the country
Why must the people in Seattle always find something shitty to say about other places in the U.S. (or even internationally)?
Particularly places that they've never visited or maybe visited once?
They seem to think that everywhere but Seattle is a backward hayseed city, with crumbling infrastructure and out of control crime. They will be quick to point out where it rains more or which city has worse traffic congestion.
This is usually manifest as a straw-man argument:
Observant person: Seattle's traffic sure sucks
Seattleite: Oh yeah? (snort, sniff) Well, I once visited Los Angeles and thought I was going to get run off the road!
or
You mention a recent trip to another city like Denver or Phoenix.
Seattleite makes a face and starts to go on about how Phoenix is a crime-ridden hellhole baking in the heat or how Denver is "too dusty," too cold, or at too high of an altitude; meanwhile mentioning that they think the Cascades are so much more scenic than the Rockies.
Trivia that I didn't care about but now know due to Seattleites: statistically, DC and NYC get more rain (in inches) than Seattle per year. Umm, yeah, but NYC and DC also don't sit under 7 layers of dreary cloud cover for 5 months out of the year.
For people who live in a city of proverbial glass houses, Seatteites throw a lot of stones.
