Fairweather Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 Tacoma: Less property crime, less violent crime, more affordable housing, less traffic, more diversity, lower taxes, fewer riots (none, in fact), less effete, and, of course, a mountain namesake. Seattle: The Seahawks. And that new tunnel. Quote
Ben Beckerich Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 Everything from Lewis to Everette is just Seattlapolis to me, dude. Quote
Sam Furley Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 Tacoma folks will split your wig if you try to get all sensitivo. So I've heard. Quote
Fairweather Posted January 15, 2015 Author Posted January 15, 2015 If what you say about this Puget Sound monoculture is true, then Seattle must represent the rotted core. It should be sucked out with a large needle before it spreads. Quote
ivan Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 Everything from Lewis to Everette is just Seattlapolis to me, dude. x2 - just a question of how many smokes i'll suck down whilst darting in n' out amongst the plentiful priuses Quote
Fairweather Posted January 15, 2015 Author Posted January 15, 2015 No need to bob and weave when the mighty Toyota Pious is on the road. They can be found traveling exclusively in the left lane six or seven under the limit--and their numbers grow thicker as you approach the once-emerald city. Quote

Seattle: The Seahawks. And that new tunnel. Tacoma: it's a dusty old gem on the South Puget Sound. 253 for life! Quote
olyclimber Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 who has the best collection of Dale Chihuly crap? YOU GOT A SPACE NEEDLE IN TACOMA? The car museum is nice...how many major Universities are in Tacoma? WOW THIS IS FUN. Quote
olyclimber Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 Climbing gyms? Proximity to good climbing locales? Restaurants? Seattle does not have the EQC, to which I've never been, but maybe it is good? And Tacoma still has a dome! How lucky is that? Quote
olyclimber Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 Tacoma wins the "closest to volcano" prize Quote
ivan Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 does tacoma got the legal weeds? i like how one of seattle's is but a short walk from the stadiums Quote
ivan Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 tacoma: why did we steal this from the injuns again? Quote
AlpineK Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 Tacoma was way better back when Nalley Valley really was Nalley Valley. [img:center]http://mediad.publicbroadcasting.net/p/kplu/files/201107/Nalley1949.jpg[/img] Quote
Pete_H Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 Seattle: closer to climbing and skiing. Tacoma: closer to Spanaway. Quote
olyclimber Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 Drool, you're one of us here in Cascadia. Part of the clan. Quote
KaskadskyjKozak Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Seattle: homeless person urine smell Tacoma: tacoma aroma Quote
AlpineK Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 In 30 years the area from Vancouver BC to Olympia WA will be one giant City. Quote
Fairweather Posted January 17, 2015 Author Posted January 17, 2015 Seattle: closer to climbing and skiing. Depends on what you mean when you say the words "climbing" and "skiing." Quote
Fairweather Posted January 17, 2015 Author Posted January 17, 2015 Seattle: homeless person urine smell Tacoma: tacoma aroma The Tacoma Aroma has been gone for 10 or 15 years. Seattle's refugee camps, however, continue to grow. Quote
AlpineK Posted January 17, 2015 Posted January 17, 2015 Seattle: closer to climbing and skiing. Depends on what you mean when you say the words "climbing" and "skiing." Don't make it into the backcountry much based on the photo Quote

Don't make it into the backcountry much based on the photo Uh, that was the point. I think Mr Pete should look at a map. Unless he considers Leavenworth a suburb of Seattle. Which it basically is.

olyclimber Posted January 17, 2015 Posted January 17, 2015 Leavenworth, a suburb of Seattle? No. Closer than to Seattle than Tacoma? Yes. Or wait...is Shelton a suburb of Tacoma? Totally the same vibe at least. You know....vibe? Quote
