thinking about just boarding a bus and leaving everything everything behind; every hope, every dream, ever body. is Seattle as dark and rainy as it seems? is it the good place to drown and die in? i just want to be faceless and forgotten.

Russia is much more depressing, should try St. Petersburg. If you die there nobody will even change the expression on their faces.

It does rain 9 months out of the year but during the summer it's so beautiful. During the winter months the snow it also really pretty up in the mountains. But yeah...it gets depressing and unless you live in seattle there isn't much to do.

I too want to know a good city to be lonely in, preferably rainy, dark and dirty with a "metro" feel in either the US or Canada.

I second Russia, but Petersburg is actually cheerier than most of the cities East of it. Just keep heading East and you'll eventually find a city grey, miserable and entirely devoid of hope in which death will seem far more welcoming than the Russians around you.

unfortunately i don't speak russian and if you can find me a bus that goes straight to russia then great. i rather take a long depressing bus ride or walk across the country alone, to mt bitter end than to take a little flying trip on a plane. going to another country is just to exciting and new.

Depends on where you want to live. The actual seattle city area is $300k-400k plus. But the real estate is going down because so many houses are being foreclosed. Apartments are around $700-1200 also depending on where you want to live.

I want to go to Seattle but I don't want to be all emo while I'm there. I'm looking to get shit faced and eat a bunch of seafood. Seattlefags please report in and tell me whats what.

Seattle is pretty, but the people, ugh.
The only major pastime is sitting around and sucking Seattle's dick. It may be different in "lower" circles, but every single damned person I met was a metro-metoo-brown noser or soccer mom type.

The pike place market is the best place to get fresh seafood and just eat a shit load. We also have the "Bite of Seattle" which i think is in june, i can't remember. The water front is just the best to go to during a hot summer day. The showbox theater is good for small venue shows.

It's prety depressing, every time I;ve ever landed in SEATAC it was raining. Seattle is rain. Tacoma is horrible. The surrounding cities are just suburban wastelands. I recommend it for dying, i almost killed myself there.

In Fremont, a Seattle, suburb, there's a giant statue of a troll under a bridge. It's eating a Volkswagen.

I daresay it does its job better than you do.

Fremont isn't a suburb fucktard. it is wedged between Ballard and the U-district.

Protip: Ballard is its own City, even though it was annexed by Seattle a hundred years ago it still remains apart in many ways, and should be referred to as the City of Ballard.

The Seattle area does rain a lot, but it's exaggerated. But it's overcast all the time. It's more depressing than rain, in a way. Just a gray sky, gray buildings, and neon colored hair of goths walking down the street. All the time.

I honestly like Eastern Washington a lot better....I lived in Seattle and moved to Pullman for college...there are actual seasons here, not six months of rain and six months of sun.

Pike Place market sucks. The tourists have made it this area of concentrated retard that isn't worth being near.
University Village is pretty cool to visit, but once you've been there a few times, it's okay.
Public transportation is okay.
People are either stuck up, need to lose weight, or scenefags.

seattle is great, you emofags. it doesn't rain all the time. in fact, this last week, it's been warm and sunny almost every day. it's cool, and it's overcast a lot, but it's really not that fucking rainy. i've lived here my entire life.
it's not a good place to be emo and die because there is way too much to do. seattle itself is great, the suburbs surrounding it are amazing and bizarre, and during the summer, there is seriously no better place to be. seattle turns into some crazy festival city as soon as it starts getting warm, with folk life, hempfest, the bite of seattle... the only problem with this city is the price and the stupid, shitty public transport.
tl;dr, if you're an emo loser, don't come here, you'll just annoy the rest of us who are having a good time.

now texas, that's a good place to go and die. i fucking hate texas.

I live just north of Seattle.

I don't think I've seen a full day of sunshine since November.

The weather is overall very nice -- it's not as rainy as people make it out to be, and it's A LOT warmer year-round than where I grew up -- but the fucking clouds are getting to me.

That said, the summers here are some of the nicest in the world.

Yeah, I noticed the ocean of scenesters.

I live in Oklahoma but I travel to Seattle a lot. Love it up there. Coffee and seafood everywhere. Cute girls and overcast days, snow capped mountains and tall buildings. What's not to love? Also, despite visiting on numerous occasions I still have not been to the space needle.

U-Village? That isn't a tourist destination, it is where my parents walk my dog (I am 300 miles away atm, so...)

They made Fiorini's move, then they shut down cause business dried up, and now all that is left are generic mall shops and a QFC. Plus traffic on montlake is always a complete bitch, and the new turn lane doesn't help at al cause they block intersections to get into it.

Oh, and I have been to the Pike Place market maybe 30 times in the 18 years i lived in Seattle. if you want a mall, Bellevue Square is the best in the area, and by best, I mean that it is the fanciest and it now has a LEGO store.

I have been up the Eiffel tower more times than the space needle (though admittedly this obnoxious side comment does keep me from going up the space needle now)

Seattle is a great place to live, but why would you visit? Move, maybe, but only if you had a job already, good luck finding housing.

In Bellevue, we use technology created by Boeing in Renton and various companies in Redmond to allow ourselves more sunny days per year.
