Nobody wants to say it, but somebody has to: seattlesucks.com sucks! This local blog built some buzz via mainstream media coverage, but the Pony's one trick is a distant memory now. Seattlesucks.com encourages venting about our city's shortcomings - the idea being to make this great place even better still.

I'm all for that, and have a few peeves of my own. These include: more Italian restaurants than actual Italians; skittish locals who jump out of their skin when you're standing behind them at a pedestrian crossing downtown and actually talking at a volume greater than 35dB; and finally, the narrow tastes of supposedly hip music writers at local alternative weeklies.

But Steele, dude, your two or three measly posts a month just don't cut it. Despite your site's well-catalogued publicity in local and out-of-town publications, it seems your 7.5 seconds are up! If you can't live up to your blog's title, just pull the plug!
