Honest to God I laughed out loud when I saw the title. Fuck, is there anything he hasn't complained about yet?

You know the best part?

If you check the averages, Seattle is practically the same temperature (if not higher highs) than Portland during the winter and has less average rainfall.

Oooh! Fun facts:

•On average Portland, OR is warmer than Seattle, WA by 2°F.
•Portland, OR recorded the highest temperature of 106°F in 1981.
•On average Seattle, WA is cooler than Portland, OR by 1°F.
•The lowest temperature, 8°F in Portland, OR, was recorded in 1989.
•On average, Portland, OR is wetter than Seattle, WA by 4.9in.

A 3 degree differential and 5 in. less of rain. You poor bastard.

yeah.. more shit I don't care about since it's fucking below freezing half the time and the other time it's 33F. I like Oregon though. They have pretty colors and a nice duck mascot.

it's winter in the northwest jackass, what do you expect? sunshine and tropics?

Well, night life isn't really within my means anyway... you know, since going to clubs and shit requires getting drunk... and since I don't drink nor can I for another 9 months or whatever. (Not like I will in my life anyway)

I don't drink and it didn't stop me from going out with friends. Oh wait, friends, that's your problem. Get a life loser.

Fuck this place. :colbert:

Been here and I hate it. It's fucking cold(even on sunny days that are infrequent), rainy, full of stuck-up jackasses, and creeps. Everything that is wrong with people shines through here in a more civilized society.

I miss Portland now. :'(

If you disagree, prove why it's fucking great.

Just because nobody likes you doesn't mean they're stuck-up. They don't like you because you're a fucking debbie downer loser with no self-esteem. Cold/Rain? Not like you leave the house anyway so what do you care. I'm sure Portland doesn't miss you so get used to it.

So you're complaining about where where you are and that you can't move because no where else will pay for your college?

Here's a hint: We all have preferences on where we'd like to live, but you can find a way to be happy just about anywhere, on almost any budget, but you have to start with an optimistic attitude.

Also, I know you won't, but got for a hike. Washington has some of the most amazing hiking you can find anywhere.

I hate Seattle too, and I could go on and on about why, but frankly, I don't want to agree with Trident. In fact, I hate this place even more now that I know you're here.
