I hope one of those dolls is in the middle seat next time I fly. Bitches don’t need any leg room.

I recently turned 40 and the best thing about it is my increasing sense of comfort in not giving one fuck what people think about me. I’ve heard the name Amber Rose but seriously had no idea who she was until now and I really like her style. I’ve made a lot of missteps in life and used to judge myself very harshly. I…

NO. And now just to spite you I might try to recruit more Californians.

Ah, lucky you. I miss everything about California but the lack of water!

Uh, where did I say I resented my husband? Because I said it wasn’t a dream come true to move to Seattle? Sorry, but I left a high-profile job, family and friends, and a very nice climate and at that time I wasn’t entirely sold on Seattle or the Boston area for that matter. Nevertheless, I have grown to love many…

That, sir, is why the vote for Seattle over the Boston area was unanimous.

I’m from San Diego, and literally every person asks me about how I’ve adapted to the weather. The truth? My skin has never looked so good but I’ve gained 25 pounds because I used to walk everywhere all year round. I hate being damp and I’m sick of technical clothing.

We were lucky enough to buy a small house in Seattle at the bottom of the market about 7 years ago. The steady increase in property taxes has strained us, as has our monthly mortgage, but I’m so glad we bought when we did. I think we’ll definitely consider moving out of the city, though, down the line. It’s such a…

I mean, I totally get it, but a city can’t thrive without transplants. For example, my husband is an expert in his field and is a professor at UW. Personally, I was pretty happy where we used to live so moving to Seattle wasn’t my dream come true or anything. But I like to think that the city benefits from having an…

I voted FUCK NO on Bertha, but that vote in itself was a confusing fiasco. Have you considered that Seattle’s pathetic voter turnout is part of the problem? Less than 25% of people turned out in the last cycle, which put Let’s Move Seattle through despite its many, many flaws. (ETA: Very tired and did not detect…

I hope you natives are completely displaced someday just because it’s so fucking tiresome to hear your unceasing whining about how newbies are ruining everything. Go back to the Seattle Times comment section dude!

As a fellow transplant eight years in, what Seattleites really hate is anyone who is not from Seattle originally. Literally anything that goes wrong in this city is our fault, from potholes to soaring property prices. I bought a used car from California last year and before I’d had a chance to change the plates, an…
