If you follow me on Twitter (@MsHoughton) or Instagram (@beforetoday7), you may have seen me using the hashtag #seattlestereotypes both for positive and negative behaviors, comments, and practices I observe in the Emerald City. I found one today when I unearthed this Pagliacci ad. Pagliacci’s is one of our local pizza joints (We are fortunate that there are many! BTW, I need to give a shout out to two that just recently opened, Dino’s Tomato Pie and Meltdown Pizza Co).
Here’s the front of their ad, designed (IMHO) to resemble the Trader Joe’s Frequent Flyers that we often receive.
Cute, right? Comics and graphic novels are a pretty big deal around here. But here’s where it gets super-Seattle-y.
WHY YES THAT IS A BOOK SUGGESTION LIST ON THE BACK PAGE OF THE PIZZA AD.
Bravo, Seattle.
