After last night's season premiere of The Bachelor, audiences of sad, middle-aged women got a sneak peek of what's to come with the above teaser-filled three-minute montage. Looks like upstanding single dad/Kirkland douchebag Jason Mesnick--and yes, it's possible to be both--gives his potential future wives a taste of everything Seattle. They go on a boat! It rains! There's the mountains! They fly a seaplane! They climb the REI rock wall! Let's go hiking! Hey, it's the Market! He makes out with everybody everywhere! Insert obligatory shot of the Space Needle here.

Jason Mesnick was the big loser on last season's Bachelorette--the last guy standing (and willing to get on his knee) for a woman who chose the other man. But don't fret, reality TV fans and Kirkland cougars, Mesnick has just been named this years "Bachelor." That's right, this time around he will be the one breaking hearts and rejecting women in an attempt to find love, reality-TV-style.

Jason Mesnick, second place on last season's The Bachelorette, was scheduled to host the August 14 radio show Chat With Women at the Waterfront Seafood Grill's romantic outdoor deck. It's been cancelled due to low attendance. The $125 ticket, a portion of which goes to the Kirkland Boys and Girls Club, includes three drinks, appetizers, and a chance to win dessert and an after-event drink with Mesnick. Do Seattle women scoff at such mating practices? Or do they not like the Boys and Girls Club?

There are times when we’re sick of Seattle. Sick of the bad and/or utter lack of fashion, sick of the terrible drivers and even worse pedestrians, and certainly sick of all the hipsters in Capitol Hill.
