Emulating one of my favorite blogs, Stuff White People Like, I’ve decided to narrow it down even further to Stuff Seattle (that is, mostly white) People Like. Will there be witty descriptions? Probably not. Overworking myself to state the obvious is not Stuff Kat People Like.

  • Talking about flying to/from New York

  • Associating themselves with the South

  • Driving 10 mph below the posted speed limit

  • The annual two-week warm period they refer to as “summer”

  • Multifunction all-season performance outerwear

  • Drinking coffee at 10pm on their way to a show

  • Going to shows

  • Obsessing over music heard on KEXP

  • Claiming to have heard music before it reached KEXP

  • Giving the program manager a hand job in exchange for airtime on KEXP

  • Afterparties (bonus points if they’re hosted by someone from KEXP)

  • Pretending to be interested in learning about wine

  • Being college educated

  • Political catch phrases

  • Knowing things about Microsoft

  • Drinking one beer and boring the shit out of me

  • Assuming their sense of humor (if present) is wittier and more ironic than average

  • Growing a beard/growing a full bush

  • Announcing nature-related weekend plans

  • Not driving

  • Extra cheese

  • Staying home

  • Lists

Am I becoming a Seattle person? I like some of the stuff on this list (I give one hell of a hand job!), but I’m having trouble adjusting to the fog of smugness, on/off precipitation, and whatever is making me cough so much. Anyway, I have zits and pick my nose and listen to porno music and wear the same thing everyday, so I’m probably not cool enough to be a Seattlite. Thus I live to enjoy another day…

    I totally go along you! I have often felt that way but nobody really would like to take it as seriously as we do apparently. Excellent blog anyway, I am going to have to stop by more frequently.

    Excellent read, I just passed this onto a colleague who was doing a little research on that. And he actually bought me lunch because I found it for him smile So let me rephrase that: Thanks for lunch!
