The brand Kirkland is named after the town.

Wrong way around. The town is named after the brand. Town voted to rename the town after falling in love with Kirkland frozen Pizza.

No joke, it’s really good! As is the four cheese gluten free pizza. I have celiac and those are really the only two pizza that I’ve tried that hold a flame to what I remember normal thin crust pizza tasting like. Highly recommend!

Named after Nancy and Ned Fleshlight. Who famously served their nation by being fleshlights for the soldiers.

Unlike the Tukwila location that named the road Costco.

Kirkland used to be such a nice suburb of seattle, too. Now it's just wildly overpriced housing and some of the worst traffic in the country wah wah. Seriously, don't ever find yourself on the 405 near kirkland anytime during daylight hours.

It's still nice. 405 is only a minor inconvenience, it sucks more if you're in Bothell or even further out. Traffic on surface streets hasn't returned to pre-pandemic levels. Best part is all the lakefront parks! And an awesome restaurant like Cafe Juanita doesn't hurt.

Yeah, I used to live in Kenmore off of Juanita and I love Kirkland, especially Juanita Beach Park and Juanita Bay Park. We're planning to move back soon and Kirkland-area is our target.

Misread that as “it sucks more if you’re in Brothel” and thought, “wow, maybe the joke about naming the town after your favorite store isn’t so far off.”

As someone who sat on that god forsaken parking lot every day for 8 years, I should cut you with a box knife.
I have literal PTSD. I keep piss bottles in my car in case I randomly wind up stuck on a freeway for 3 extra hours for absolutely no reason.

I live in Seattle and I can’t remember the last time I was in Kirkland. Maybe never?

Well you don't work at Costco corporate, obvs.
vera214usc t1_iu8dd83 wrote
Costco corporate is in Issaquah, not Kirkland.
yeswithaz t1_iu7ytug wrote
I don’t, but it’s now in Issaquah, another town that’s gotten way too ritzy.
Le_Gentle_Sir t1_iu7yycx wrote
Oh yeah, for sure. Even Rentin' is crazy now.

Uh oh “the 405”? That’s the spy right over there, officer. 😉
