Here’s the official metronatural website.

I don’t think you’re being too hard on us.
I think it actually is pretty horrible.

No, you’re completely correct in thinking it’s hideous. I mean, actually, it’s beyond hideous, but I was going to give them some credit, otherwise I’ve totally lost faith in the power of my tax dollars. At least it’s spelled (relatively) correctly.

Say Wa?

Seriously – heads should roll!

Does that mean that we are all tree hugging metro-sexuals, with our herb gardens and expensive body products?

I’m not too wild about it either.

It’s bad, I’ll give it that. But upon investigating I found out that our last few mottos were:
“See-@-L: Soak it up”
“Say WA?”
and a couple contenders for the current one were:
“Inspiration Awaits”
“Life is different here”

In light of those stinkpiles ‘metronatural’ almost has a ring to it.

i have to say…that’s horrible.

people get paid to pick these names? good grief.

Damn horrible… the only decent one I ever heard was “The Emerald City”.

I agree that we can only criticize if we’ve come up with a better one. And the one I’ve heard that I liked the best was…

“Wa happen?”

i agree with “dangerstevens.” my first reaction was “this has to be a joke” but then, i thought about it and it’s actually pretty accurate, you know. we are very metro and we are very natural.

i also like that no one from the rest of the country will have a clue what we are talking about. hooray! what else is new!

Okay, let’s create a better slogan. But it should be Seattle specific (as metronatural was supposed to be).

With an area code of (206)—we could say “Seattle: welcome to the the 2-0-sickness!”

What’s really sad is that the pedestrian safety signs in Seattle are about 10,000 more memorable and better…

Have you seen the latest “Drive Carefully” signs this year with the stick figure limps and shrapnel?

Anyway, slogan:

Seattle—omg i had this espresso that was like so gross

I’m not liking it either. I mean if you have to define the slogan so people understand what it means…haha, come on – I think Seattle can do better than that. The idea is a nice one but the word is unfamiliar to most
