Sorry I didn’t have time to completely respond to your whole comment earlier, got pinged and had to wrap it up.
I’ve literally had a conversation with a stranger at a bar in Cap Hill when I first moved here, and my accent makes me stick out like a sore thumb here so I get asked where I’m from all the time, after she asked and I told her where, she said “cool I’m from California and that’s why I’m speaking to you right now”. Which was hyperbolic but it does ring true coming from Atlanta to Seattle in that regard.
You my friend are an anomaly as far as my experience with the PNW if you can hang with a midwesterner in idle chit chat, they give us a run for our money in the south. Congratulations on the social skills lol!
You do gotta be careful with southern folks that ain’t from the big city, once we get comfortable we drop the fake accent and start speaking “proper”
See that also tracks with why we hate Californians...
Cap Hill used to be affordable, and considerably more weird.
Yes, its weird, it used to be more weird.
Like uh, I remember one time about 15 years ago now (rent in Cap Hill was roughly 1/3 of what it is now), I saw an actual freak on a leash, like just full BDSM gear dude walking another BDSM dude down the street.
They were going to QFC, to get groceries, just normal stuff, most people were like 'huh. sure. neat.' and just went on as normal.
Then the California hipster trust fund babies moved in, followed by the techbros, raised the rent, the Seattle natives moved out, now Cap Hill is basically a tourist area, masquerading as 'the most coolest Seattleist part of the city'.
Like, I'm in the midwest now in large part because of the real estate bubble caused by rich transplant gentrifiers.
But yeah, anyway, I did interperet the uh, full blast accent drop as a sign he was uh... comfortable talking to me, so i was genuienly happy, but also very confused, hahah!
Yeah I could tell it wasn’t what it was, even Atlantas midtown and lil 5 were much more wild than cap hill when I rolled in. I still like it but Fremont is still pretty dope thankfully.
Tech bros and VC ruin everything.
It gets easier to pickup the more you hear it but in your position if you just smile and nod you’ll be good. Just don’t drink any clear liquid offered of go to a second location
