Vancouver, Washington

The downtown is okay now, thanks to a few young people building some cool stores and restauraunts, but the rest of Vancouver pretty much sucks. There are two types of people in Vancouver:

1) Smart people. These people wish they lived in Portland, but don't for one of three reasons: no income tax, gay marriage, or because they have kids and Portland Public Schools are crap. These people want light rail so they can get to Portland faster and away from people-type #2.

2) Fools. These people think Vancouver is part of Texas. They tend to love Wal-Mart and driving their cars everywhere. They refuse to recognize the fact that Portland is cool or really even that it exists. They hate change and don't want light rail.

People-type #1 tend to live in southwest Vancouver to be closer to Portland, though can be found periodically elsewhere. People-type #2 exist more commonly in northern Clark County, but you can find them spread throughout suburbia or occassionally attending rallies protesting things they don't understand.

I want light rail so I can get out of Vancouver, Washington and into Portland faster.

GW Liberalism

A form of liberalism commonly found on college campuses, such at the George Washington University, whereby even the slightest questioning of leftism or straying towards the right is treated with disgust. Those practicing GW Liberalism seem to believe the only possible reasons for not being a bleeding-heart, no-questions-asked liberal are hatefulness/intolerance, ignorance/stupidity, selfish motives, or generally being inferior.

"I said that protests in Ferguson won't work because they're too violent, and they reacted like I said I'd just joined the Klan!"
"That's GW liberalism for ya"
