      You’d think if it were true they wouldn’t spend so much time trying to prove it. They doth protest too much

        Right?

        It legitimately just leaves a bad taste in my mouth regarding the west coast and particularly California

        And I don’t want to feel like that! Like I know those places are cool and have beautiful natural settings and intelligent people and awesome culture.

        You don’t have to trash talk the entire other half of the country to convince me that you guys have merit.

        It’s low-key what someone with incredibly low self esteem does.

      Hey, while you might not win on education, healthcare, quality of life or cultural attitudes towards racism, you can always come at the west coast over this BS:

      “It’S tHe IcE tHaTs ThE pRoBlEm” sure, and the fact there’s eight whole plows in the entire state and nobody even understands the concept of winter tires is just totally unrelated…

        Seattle, just the city limits of Seattle, has hills taller than things I’ve heard people in the midwest call mountains.

        That being said, yeah, you are absolutely correct that almost fucking nobody in the PNW knows jack shit about driving in the snow.

        They also know jack shit about driving in the rain, which is… baffling for hopefully obvious reasons.
