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.

I think it would be a *definate* shock to the parents of the students of Annie Wright School to know theire children are lving in the middle of a ghetto....

Especially the parents of the resident students.

You want a real giggle? He's lived in Lake City, which is right up there with South Tacoma Way for its utter sleaze.

Gawd. I lived in Lake City last year, and moved when we couldn't take anymore. Our first night in the apartment was christened by a fistfight at the apartment building next door. I swear to God the toothless Jerry-Springer hillbilly rejects at the other house next to us were making crank or somesuch next door, as they had visitors coming all hours of the day. Either the Seattle fire department or the cops were at either neighbors' house on a weekly basis. And to top it off, somebody urinated in the apartment building's corridors routinely, and on my car twice. Yeah, and *Tacoma's* the ghetto all right.

Or going to school in the middle of a ghetto. Wonder what the governor would say about that...
