    I wish we could just give Spokane to Idaho, they’d be a better fit over there. Honestly, I’d go as far to say everything East from Ritzville should probably just considered “Western Idaho.”

    I guess my point is that this kind of car-centric build-out and culture seems par for the course for more rural, conservative areas.

      hi, fuck you, there are normal people out here trying to fix this shithole. western washington is not the only place that exists and fuck you for trying to burn your neighbors. none of us want to be included with those inbred psychopaths in the panhandle.

      also spokane is the second biggest metropolitan area in washington state you goon, this isn’t rural.

        Always makes me sad when people start trashing rural areas and even sizeable cities like Spokane. It’s like Americans are completely incapable of nuance, of understanding that at least 1/3 of the people they’re trashing share their politics.

        hi, fuck you too, buddy, from a fellow eastern washington resident who fucking hates it here and doesn’t see much that can be done to fix it.

          As another E-WA resident, I don’t want to give up. Things will change. Probably going to take a while, but I want to believe in a change. Besides, I’d rather get turned into the Canadian acquisition of the west coast than become part of Super Idaho.

      Omfg i love ritzville so much. Whenever we drive from OR to MT we always stop in ritzville and spend the afternoon singing “putting on the ritzville”.
