Actually, I’ve Been There. And I Liked It.

Take the quiz: “Which American City Are You?”

Seattle
Your dark exterior masks a caffeine driven activism. You’ll take up a cause and you’ll get ugly to advance it.

    Cleveland? Are you serious? It must be the pick-up truck and draft beer.

    I scored “Seattle” as well… Must be the simple combination of politics and coffee…

    I got Clevland too…. but I live in Seattle.

    “You are blue collar and Rock n Roll. You Work hard and party harder”

    All correct except the blue-collar part.

    What’s this say about your readership Radley?

    I somehow ended up being New York. One of the last cities I’d want to live in. (No offense, New Yorkers).

    Vegas? I don’t even like to gamble. I say there’s not enough choices on the test.

    Seattle?

    I guess it was the combination of the coffee shop (for the politics, not the coffee) and garage band (with the “garage” being our church’s auditorium).

    Well, if you drink beer and watch football, the questionaire states that you’re Cleveland… I may have answered football if it was that time of year, but I’ve still got basketball on my mind even though the Kings lost…

    For myself, it was the combination of politics, coffee, and a penchant for small, gas-sipping cars. Hey, I drive a Geo Metro CONVERTIBLE… You can’t drive a convertible in Seattle, it’s raining 340 days a year…

    I’d actually knock a few points off my “Seattle Score” because of my dislike of their crappy grunge music and their even crappier weather.

    I’ll take Sacramento any day of the week, but it’s not a city that tends to show up in anyone’s polling…

    Why oh why do I always take these stupid quizzes posted at The Agitator? And furthermore, why do I insist on putting them on my own blog? Ah hell… Cleveland Rocks!

    I got San Francisco.

    Odd, since I left there in disgust two years ago after 23 years.

    I think it was the gay bar question that skewed the results.

    New York, by the hair of my chin, thank god. I nearly answered ‘beer’ instead of ‘anything with alcohol’. All the Cleveland people, I feel your pain, beer and football make you Cleveland regardlass of anything else it seems. I live in Seattle, Radley, trust me, its beautiful, but its a political nightmare for a lib like you or me. Though the coffee is awfully good.

    I’m the only one that got Boston?

    Can I be Boston and still be Libertarian?

    No?
    Not possible?

    OReilly’s… from Boston… and an authoritarian social conservative.. okay nevermind.

    Cleveland?

    (shakes head)

    (emails several noted commenters on Agitator who also come up Cleveland for Class Action suit naming ‘What City are YOU?’ and Balko co-defendents, siting emotional distress)

    (finishes emails, graps wallet, hops in truck, cranks up Allman Bros., goes to get beer and fishing tackle)

    It’s Vegas for me. Although, if there were other choices in that quiz, the result would probably be different.

    Cleveland!

    Seems appropriate, considering that I actually live there…

    Beer, baseball, and pickup trucks. Headin’ to the Indians game tonight, in fact.

    Frank N — that Wal-Mart is still hiring.

    How did the test maker choose his cities, by stereotypes he’s learned by watching too much prime time TV?

    What a crock…

    I can’t believe they represent my hometown with an image of those socialist assholes who overran the WTO in 1999.

    For the record, most of those jackasses weren’t even *from* Seattle. They were comprised mostly of Eugene potheads and rich New England brats, both of which had no qualms about trashing the city and catching the next flight home afterward.

    Seattle’s a great city, but not because of those disrespectful, self-rightous little pricks.
