Martin Crane does wear Flannel, but it's tucked in! Bulldog lives in a fancy condo, and his favorite sport is ... hockey! None of this makes much sense in Seattle.

2 Ferry Trips later, it's dark, and they finally rendezvous ... his date is allergic to Kale.

I think that the tech industry brought with it a definite casual, we don’t give a shit because we’re geniuses, where’s my Uber sort of sense to things. We’ve always been more casual than other places, but the attitude about it is new.

When I think of 90s Seattle ... it seems equal parts mopishly long hair, grungy t-shirts, an alt hippy aesthetic, and bill gates wearing an ill-fitting knit sweater.

This is more accurate! But I think there was still an ill fitting suit and with big shoulder pads component of the downtown corridor.
