Hey Seattle,

In the play Come from Away, there’s a song where the locals offer to make their visitors honorary Newfoundlanders by making them drink terrible alcohol and kiss a freshly caught cod.

This got me thinking: what kind of silly ritual could be used to dub someone an honorary Seattleite?

People don't connect like that here. If they did, the first rite would surely be to step over a homeless person without making eye contact.
