Portlanders!!!!!

[mr tibbs]

The wife recently started watching Portlandia. Is it really that freaky up there??!! Lol

[dvnt88]

You have nooooooooo idea ...not as amusing as the show , but there are a lot ...and I mean a lot of weird, hippie, tree-huggin' liberals, but the landscape can't be beat.

[vwdude]

Isn't that where Grimm takes place?

I'd figure there's a lot of hippies up there.

Not sure about "Grimm", but we have our share of hippies among other things (yuppies, wanna-be's, eco nut jobs and so on), but you really have that anywhere you go, just seems that Portland is a magnet for the "Weird" (even have bumper stickers that say "Keep Oregon Weird" ...go figure).

[vwdude]

Haha, yea you get the hardcore hippies...we get the rich and snobby hippies.

I know this thread is old but I haven't lurked in a looooonnnnnngggg time, let alone posted anything.

As a Porkland native, I must say please give me back the reality that the show Portlandia was initially based on and take these f-tard hipsters back.

Food still has a story and full bio, but if the food is good and in the right (or wrong) place you need to stand in line because nobody is capable of taking a reservation for less than 12 people on a weeknight let alone a weekend.

Come to Portland if you like:
Green scenery
Hills
Roads with curves
Some of the worst traffic management in the US
Some of the worst drivers in the US
Friendly people on the sidewalks downtown and rude people in the extended areas
Good food with a ton of options
Good Coffee with a ton of options
Good beer with a ton of options
..........you can literally get a steak marinated in a local micro brew and then dry rubbed with a local roasted coffee.
Moss
Canadian Geese
6 weeks of the most beautiful summer you'll ever see
Strip clubs, seriously the most per capita in the US (my have recently been over taken by Tampa I heard).


Don't come to Portland if you dislike:
Rain, like a 9-10 months of heavy mist and/or constant drizzle. Not talking the 15 minute flash floods you get elsewhere but a constant damp falling from above.
Overcast and grey for the same 9-10 months as the rain.
Depression and jaded sarcasm.
Fat chicks.

[dvnt88]

^^^Ya hit the nail on the head bro ...especially the "Fat Chicks" or as I like to call it..."Oregon Skinny" . Have lived here most my life, but have never seen soooooo many obese, unkept, slovenly fat fucktards in 1 geographical location. Must be the 9-10 months of indoor food juggling ...

[LowandLoud]

Lmao @ Oregon skinny

I hear you guys have the food truck scene locked up. Maybe a connection?
