A state in the northwestern corner of the United States. Its capital is Olympia and its largest city is Seattle.

The state of Washington is not to be confused with Washington, D.C. If you are talking about the state, just say "Washington." I HATE it when people call it Washington State!

Only the best state in the Union. Actually has a culture of its own, doesn't try to emulate anything else. Typically unlike the rest of the country, typically left-wing. Most secular state, contains the two most secular couties in the US. Promotes a growing scientific, computer, and airplane industry. NOT WASHINGTON DC!!! IF WE MEANT DC we would have SAID DC!!

Home of the everlasting cloud cover.

The northwest corner of the lower 48. NOT Washington D.C., or Washington State. If someone was talking about Washington D.C., they would've said DC, the District or the capital. Washington State is Washington State U. (WSU, wazzu), so you hear that all you east coast people?

Without a doubt, the best state in the U.S.

As of 2013, Washington is the only state to have legalized gay marriage, recreational marijuana use for adults and physician assisted suicide.

Gay marriage states: Connecticut, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, Vermont, Washington
Weed states: Colorado, Washington
Physician assisted suicide: Montana, Oregon, Washington

Washington is as far as you can get away from the nation's capital without leaving the lower 48, though it shares a name with it.

It borders cool and funky towns and cities in different states and provinces to the north, south and east: Vancouver, B.C., Portland, Oregon, Coeur d'Alene, Idaho but it also has its own awesome cities and towns like Seattle, Spokane and Olympia.

Sure, Washington has its problems. Some rednecks and a meth problem in Eastern Washington, a heroin problem and some gang activity in Western Washington. But what state doesn't have its problems? Overall, Washington is a fantastic place to live and Seattle has one of the nation's lowest crime rates for a city its size.

The people tend to be down to earth, laid back, open-minded and friendly. There's beautiful scenery everywhere you go. There's liberal politics west of the Cascade range and libertarian politics east of it. It's one of the most secular states in the country. Great music comes out of Washington and the state's population is the most well-read out of all the states.

A kickass state that has beautiful mountain ranges, open-minded people, and has some of the most lenient drug laws in the entire US.

When one goes to the bathroom to solely wash their hands (for example when entering a restaurant before the meal comes out), but then realizing while in the bathroom and washing their hands that they have to go pee/urinate. Thus, one then has to wash their hands a second time after peeing/urinating.

The nickname for a one-dollar bill in the US.

Slang term for marijuana derived from the fact that the first president of America had over 143 acres devoted to growing cannabis. Typically very high quality.
