Seattle is famous for insanely wanky public arguments vigorous policy discussions, so it’s hardly surprising that the Seattle lj community is also a fountain of wank place where online debate sometimes gets a bit heated.

Yesterday, there was a school shooting in Tacoma and a short post about it has given rise to a rainbow of wank.

First, there was a brief outbreak of grammar wank, because using the indefininite plural for a singular subject is serious business but that exploration of the limits of language pales when the gomezticator declares Tacoma a ghetto. [info]melvillian, already wanking away and calling on expertise in the first thread, is a Tacoma native, and the wank takes wings.

It has spread to gomezticator’s LJ where no more sense is made. ETA I don't actually know anything about Tacoma, but I agree with you exchange, possibly the funniest thing in the whole mess.

And because I am a completist at heart, ETA 2:

Gomezticator can't understand why other people won't stop talking about Tacoma.

Christ. Can we just agree that every place of residence has its shitty parts and leave it at that, without dragging everyone's educational background into it?

Well, that would be the sane reaction, but [info]gomezticator will not accept anything except surrender on the part of those heathens who think Tacoma is ever and always the worst place on earth. Or something.

Honestly, I don't know why s/h/it cares so much. If Tacoma's as great as all that, it doesn't really matter what some random fucknut on the internet says about it, right?
