I've felt for sometime, that as a resident of this city, I don't really fit the mold. So just for fun, I've created this "handy" quiz for you to find out--Should I pack up my Birks, with my tail between my legs and find a new city?? That's a picture of a Sasquatch by the way, perhaps you already knew that...
1) Do you like the Dave Mathews Band?
2) Do you own a light therapy lamp for the treatment of SAD or dysthymia?
3) Do you like Starbucks?
4) Do you own a pair of Uggs—and not the fake ones (I'd say the unofficial Birkenstock of the 00’s)?
5) Are you likely to experience orgasm when you hear the latest ski conditions?
6) Do you like hiking?
7) If any of these teams--Seattle Seahawks, Supersonics, Mariners--has a less-than stellar season, do you drop off a 1/4 of the way through it?
8) Would you buy those Uggs at Nordstrom? Or possess a Nordstrom charge card?
9) Do you shop amazon.com over any other retail bookstore?
10) Does living without sunshine for over 75% of the year bother you?
11) Rep or Dem?
12) Are you an REI co-op member?
13) You want to pick up an Odwalla, do you buy it at Whole Foods?
Now for the scoring!! Are you excited?!
Questions 1-7, 9, 12, 13: Give yourself 2 pts if you answered Yes; 0 pts if No
Question 8: Two pts if Yes to either question
Question 10: No, 2pts—and you’re lying by the way!
Question 11: Democrat, 2pts
The Short, 0-5 = You fit in to the Seattle mold, like Paris Hilton in a turtleneck and full-length pants. Time to move!
The Tall, 6-12 = You're about $60 short on those Uggs. Maybe you should apply for a job with Microsoft.
The Grande, 13-19 = Dave Mathews is in town for a special last-minute show at the Paramount on the same day as: your wedding, birth of your child, a full 16 hours of sun-breaks! And you pass it up?? You'll never make it to Venti status.
The Venti, 20-26 = Zip up your Columbia and dash out to your Subaru Impreza with Starbucks Americano in hand. It’s time to release that pent-up dry season called Summer, on the slopes at Stevens!
I scored a 6 by the way. But I'll have know that I've practically retired the Nordstrom card and REI membership usage. Oh, and that last factor in my score? You can probably guess.
