Hipsters have been flocking to old men's bars for decades, looking for some obscure kind of seedy authenticity they can't find in their own places, until word gets around and the old men stop coming and you're left with a new batch of inauthentic hipster bars. Well... world...Portland used to be like an old man's bar the size of a small city...and we liked it. That's right. We liked being surrounded by factories and crew-cuts. We liked it when Republicans were rational human beings and Navy-issue pea coats cost $5.00. And we especially liked renting 4-bedroom houses for $100 a month. So go away...world...move somewhere else. Move to Bend - it's not just sunny, it's really hip too. No kidding. Besides, you won't like it at all in Portland. You don't realize how much it rains. Look at my van. See that green stuff? That's moss. |
