Nashville can't escape the "it city" tag even when "it cities" have stopped being a thing.

This time, the tourist-driving descriptor is disguised as a "local's guide to Nashville" from the Washington Post's travel feature "By The Way."

We're used to this. From aspiring country singers to woo-hooing bachelorettes or bachelor party bros, people have always wanted to come to Music City and we've always welcomed them.

But while the Washington Post series offers a wide array of tourist destinations beyond Lower Broadway — highlighting Germantown, The Nations and several truly local gems like Slim & Husky's, Cornelia Fort Airpark, and the Belcourt — the section on East Nashville drew a heated response thanks to WAPO's poorly crafted tweet (Portlandia of the South??) and spurious claims (have you been to an East Nashville bodega?)

There's a lot going on in that tweet.

First of all — "East Nasty?"

"Portlandia" of the South?

Writer Brandon Gee, an Indiana native who moved to Nashville ten years ago, referenced the IFC sketch comedy show "Portlandia," which parodied the quirky culture of the Oregon city. He was trying to make a point that while East Nashville's uniqueness might earn it the same reputation, calling it "Portlandia of the South" would be misleading.

The problem? That's what WAPO's Tweet calls it

Finally — East Nashville has bodegas?

Say it with me "BO-DE-GAS." A small convenience store that also sells liquor, grocery goods and deli foods are most commonly found in the East Coast.

According to the Washington Post piece, East Nashville has them too and many called them out on it.
