The cancer that is killing Portland

[synthesis]

Midwesterners.

Seriously, go home.

[Widerstand]

le soup?

[Jimmie Higgins]

I thought it was hipsters.

[Widerstand]

Hipsters are killing every place, not just Portland.

[Jimmie Higgins]

Giant otters and beavers?

[synthesis]

The vast majority of hipsters and other assorted uselessness are coming from the Midwest.

Remember what happened to New Yorkers on The Wire?

[Animal Farm Pig]

Keep Portland pretentious!

[synthesis]

Keep Portland pretentious!

Keep Portland free of people who move to Portland with a preconceived (garbage) notion of what Portland "is" and slowly but surely begin to change Portland into "that." Most of whom come from the Midwest. I'm just saying.

I'm sick of all the Portland chauvinism on RevLeft!! :mad:

[Rusty Shackleford]

You're just scared of the ocean.

You do know that the water doesn't go on forever right?

[Rusty Shackleford]

i actually love san francisco and bodega bay so i just proved you wrong.

[Os Cangaceiros]

I thought it was hipsters.

LOL, since hipsterdom was partially forged in Portland, I think that it's a little beyond the "killing" stage. I think that the hipster contagion did away with Portland a while ago. It's a lost cause!

You know whats even worse?

I've heard good and bad things about Portland more or less along the exact lines of the good and bad I've heard about Seattle. All the good shit I've heard about those two places comes from cracker asses like myself, all the bad shit comes from dark skinned folks like my girlfriend. What does that tell you about those two places?

[bcbm]

all of the douchebags i met in portland were natives.

all of the nice people who were friendly and not pretentious pieces of shit were midwesterners.

native portlanders: swallow some lead and hop in the willamette.

[The Fighting_Crusnik]

I'm from the midwest, and if I want your lobster and your other seafood, I'm going to eat it regardless of what you say! :mad:

...we're talking about Portland, Maine...right? :D

[IllicitPopsicle]

I thought this was going to be a thread about the anon raid on the Oregon Tea Party...

We just don't like your type around here, that's all. Midwesterners can stay the fuck where they are.

Fuck you, you trendy doctor!

It says a lot about you, in that you're drawing huge conclusions based on vague anecdotes from your tourist friends. Whenever someone really makes me ashamed to be white, they're usually from the Midwest.

You have clearly never been to the south. Midwesterners have nothing on us, unfortunately.

@empty space, possibly a hotel room or lot: fuck you. :cool:

psh. Medical school was easy. I just walked in there, flashed a smile and said some fancy words, and boom! I'm a Doctor. :D

Thanks to the Doctor I got rid of my appendix. Plus my insides have a cool new watch.

Ah, that's where my watch went. I removed your liver too, don't know if you need that or not, but it was there and I was having too much fun with the scalpel. Oh, you might have my scientific calculator as well, I haven't been able to find it recently. So worst comes to worse, at least you can easily put things into scientific notation as you die.
