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.

Oh, please. Tacoma's not ghetto, it just smells bad.

Word. I swear, Pacific Avenue is now one of my favorite places to hang out, with all the museums and the restaurants and whatnot.

Especially the Glass Bridge, and the hotshop in the Museum of Glass.

And the university. The library's an awesome way to blow a few hours, especially up in that lighthouse reading room with the hejeebus huge red Chihuly thing. (or more than a few hours if you're a student. At the end of last quarter, not even the red thing could cheer me up.)
