Is living in Seattle as comfy as it seems in Frasier?
Is living in Seattle as comfy as it seems in Frasier?
Frasier has a multi-million dollar apartment.
It would be comfy anywhere.
if youre up high enough and cant smell the street, maybe
TOSSED SALAD AND SCRAMBLED EGGS
In the 90s it was pretty cool. A cultural center without the baggage of today.
Depends on if you like rain
All of the locals have been priced out of Seattle neighborhoods by yuppie Silicon Valley transplants and have had to move 30 minutes North or South of the city.
And the sizable homeless problem has gotten worse, despite decades of politicians saying its one of their goals to help solve it.
Still, drive 45 minutes in any direction and you're in pretty pristine scenic wilderness. There are worse places to live.
define "comfy"
This.
For a non-frasier, non-meme answer: Seattle is one of the most beautiful cities in the US imo, but absurdly expensive.
the I5 jungle is the comfy zone
Back then it would have only been about 40k
>expensive
>seattle freeze
>define "comfy"
It was before 2000 when no one really cared about the northwest
OH NO MY GRANDPA DIED!!
fucking faggot using the death of a relative to further his kikeness...
>>define "comfy"
>afa ape wearing an Arsenal shirt with fly emirates as a sponsor
Oh you can almost taste the irony
If you're used to raw sewage in the street than it's still a hellhole full of black people
No it's fucking ass. Everyone is sad. It's rains every fucking day. This place is basically China.
No
>weather sucks 8 months out of the year
>seattle freeze is not a meme
>zero semblance of culture
>homeless issue is out of control
>annoyingly liberal (even for a coastal area)
>getting to be more expensive
Only upsides are the music scene, it’s pretty, and summer is nice. It’s a pretty boring city though. Lot of new money and all the shittiness that comes with it
Keep reading faggot
It's not comfy rain. I moved here from the South, where we had flash floods and monsoon type rains. Here the rain is constantly drizzly. Comfy rain is rain you can hear on the roof and hitting your windows.
pic related is seen as the GOOD, CLEAN part of seatle
>mfw I learned Washington D.C. isn't in Washington state
I hope you're not American
i love rain and wish it would rain all the time here in the south, so you are telling me my fantasies of the seattle rain are nonsense?
It used to be. The area slightly away from the downtown core still has that classic Seattle feel, but the downtown has become so gentrified from Amazon that it barely resembles a real city.
If I were like this I would go into the woods and build a nice, comfy, Roman tent. They're probably to lazy and braindead from drug and alcohol abuse for that though.
I'd rather live in the pacific northwest than the south. Fuck humidity and cockroaches.
>too
>braindead
I'm retarded.
>If I were like this I would go into the woods and build a nice, comfy, Roman tent.
they cant go too far because they have to congregate near their drug dealers to get their daily fix and hit up the welfare offices/food banks/etc for free shit.
Yes. The rain is honestly not on the same level. Maybe something like Hawaii would be what you're looking for. It looks constantly how it's pictured in Twin Peaks. Overcast and drizzle.
I agree. Also legal dude weed laymo
The time I visited Seattle there was a very distinct atmosphere to the place (as there always is) but yeah I found it very comfy in a way. But in the way that overcast, rainy places are. But also considering there have been a number of bands in recent decades so that we're vaguely familiar with the vibe of the place, there was something palpably familiar to it that like you can hear in Alice in Chains and whatnot but also other Seattle bands like Queensryche, who have a different kind of sound but that Seattle-ness is there. Which is to say Seattle isn't grunge-ish, but has a particular atmosphere that you can hear in the background of Seattle bands.
But yeah I've only seen glimpses of Frasier and I doubt it was even shot in Seattle and yet still something about its look and the cityscape it conjures up seems to capture it.
Like this song feels like Seattle too. I don't mean the LA metal influenced guitar tones but more the affective / emotional texture and sense of the way the rainy streets and apartments and luxury stores in the world of this song feel (and I'm not talking about lyrical evocation but atmospheric-tonal evocation).
>Like this song feels like Seattle too.

Seattle is a shithole? What the fuck?
its the greatest city IN THE WORLD
Like there's something about Seattle that codes as sort of 'adult' and is associated with wine and condos and shiny skyscrapers and beautiful brick sidewalk cafes and college students.
What color were the perpetrators of the home invasion and murder/rape?
No it's actually mostly really clean and beautiful. It's just that being a really liberal city there's a large culture of street kids and hippies so you're going to have your encampments here and there. Anyone who would think the whole place looks like a messy encampment though hasn't been there. It's similar to San Francisco in that there are definitely real pockets of homeless culture but then most of it is expensive, upscale zones and college areas. See also Berkeley.

just ignore the needles, feces, and riots everywhere bro, its great! t. faggot.
He has way too much light in that place. It would feel like living in a studio.
Best call in Frasier? For me, it’s Sid
youtu.be
Yes
Seattle has realistically no crime, great food and some of the best roads in the country
no it's shit shoo shoo californiggers
Bro, I'm no fan of corny activist culture, but I live in a ridiculously wealthy liberal city like this, and I've seen Seattle too. I get it, you dislike liberals. I have my critiques of them too, but it's retarded to just insist on bullshit talking points you don't actually have any knowledge or experience of because you're committed to some lame political agenda. Seattle activist culture SUCKS, but sorry man it's a really beautiful city too and no there isn't just needles and trash everywhere, it's incredibly clean for the most part. One of the cleaner American cities I've been to.
>no crime
not a lot of violent crime, but there are enough crazy people wandering around at all hours that it's often sketchy to walk around. if you know you're safe it's still not a pleasant atmosphere
>best roads in the country
nigga you joking
what are you comparing seattle to? there's trash everywhere and the streets smell like shit and piss
Bro visit Pittsburg or Cleveland or Baltimore and get some perspective. Some of these poor cities are absolutely desolate and falling apart. Seattle is like a comfy, breezy themepark in comparison.
Drizzle is the best for going on long walks listening to moody music though. When the skyscrapers disappear into the low clouds... that's fucking glorious.
seattle is like NY 2.0 revamp without the skyscrapers everywhere but the cosy atmosphere and again, great roads!
That really captures the quality of Seattle and demonstrates why its music etc is the way it is. I find that aesthetic beautiful but sure, one gets bored of depressing rain after a while.
This. I live in Capitol Hill, and while you're never far from a homeless person or two, you pretty much have to go out of your way to find an encampment since they cleared out those ones near I-5.

Bullshit. What did you do, walk in a circle through Pioneer Square?
>Read about Tony Hawk
>He still lives in California
>Why the heck would he want to live in a place surrounded by Mexicans and blacks?
>Turns out the area is 85% white, 0.6% black, and 13% Mexican
He must be paying a heavy premium to live in a white part of California right?
no
You'd be surprised how white parts of California are. The north is white enough that a 51st state succession into Jefferson has come up a few times in different generations.
It used to be
I live in the Bay Area and it's similar. I realized this about Seattle. It's liberal enough, like SF and Berkeley, in that they definitely let a large homeless population set up camp here and there, but at the same time most of the areas are cleaner than average, and full of gardens and expensive real estate. The kinds of assholes that hate the homeless might see some hippie kid asking for change, or a tent here and there, and think it's a 'shithole', but besides that being a cuntish attitude, they have no perspective of how much other cities are struggling in comparison to these rich enclaves. Try going to a Rust Belt city and then reassess how badly you think San Francisco or Seattle is doing.
*are doing
>The north is white enough that a 51st state succession into Jefferson has come up a few times in different generations
They should do it. It would make up for Proposition 187.
He lives in Encinitas. Is that near the north?
portland here fuck seattle
