I think it's because it is off topic, and also HN generally does not like humor, unless it's particularly clever.

Fair, thanks for the reply. It was only half humor though, as a local i do genuinely hate much of the city. However, i'm not "city local" if that makes sense.
But it's not unique to Seattle. Tacoma and Olympia (where i live) is bad too. Cities just suck these days it seems.
Anyway, just making local-jokes mostly. Not actually attacking Seattle :)
edit: Is it because i was kidding, or is very mild criticism of Seattle not appreciated? It's not like i live in Texas and have never been there lol.
