In the event anyone has missed this, it was busy bouncing around in my head for the past few days. I needed to let it out and share it with you fine folk.

uhhh you're a little San Francisco right now . . . ahh, that's better.


Classic!

Very funny. I've often remarked to people that Portland reminds me of Seattle in the 90s (I mean that in a good way). I know there's a bit of piss taking in this video, but I actually kind of dig it.

Seattle used to be a very funky town. The late 90s and 00s turned it into a very wealthy town and it has made Seattle a very beautiful and fancy place. Sure, there is still some gritty culture to be found, but it is nothing like it used to be. Portland has certainly undergone a substantial amount of transformation (just look at the Pearl), but it seems to have retained a lot more of the funkyness that Seattle lost as it got successful.

Or maybe Portland just seems like that because I'm a tourist there.

I feel like Olympia is more 90s than Portland. Or maybe just early 90s, to be specific.
Regardless, the video is pretty spot on by my reckoning.
