The Seattle Freeze refers to how
people from Seattle often seem distant and unfriendly when they realize that they are not nearly as cool as you are. I suppose most do not care, but you will find some that do, i.e they try to act cool around you but give up because their natural instincts are to be pedantic and to fill their brains with as much
useless technical information as possible. If I need technical information, I'll use google. If I want to laugh, I'll go try a
normal city. This is why I never stop on the way to Vancouver, BC while driving through the city on I-5. I grew up in a place where knowing how to tell a good
joke was one of the most important qualities a
person could have. A
joke? Whats that? Oh, you
mean when I laugh about how my Apple OS crashes every time I try to import photos into Preview? Ha..........oh, ha.........ha? Now where's that ramp to I-5, I need to get our of here.....if only I can find it. Anyway, the locals say its you, not us, that is the problem. Well, but to be honest, our
boredom light goes on instantly whenever we try to engage you in conversation. Yawn........so get to the point, or would you prefer to fantasize that you are insightful, erudite and important?
