Why do you geniuses think everyone who has moved to Portland has moved here from Cali? I know a couple people. I also know 100s of people who have moved here from hawaii, chicago, alaska, idaho, montana, minnesota, syracuse, seattle, colorado.
Why do you geniuses think there are so many hipsters in Portland? I know what you mean. I see a couple, more if its that area of town. I identify them more as skaters or surfers. I see a lot more hispanics, african americans, asians, russians, vietnamese, chinese, middle eastern, indian, poor straight white americans.
I heard a guy once say these people were in a gang and gang banging because they were wearing hoodies and droopy pants. That's as dumb as you. That's as dumb as me thinking a hipster is a skater or surfer. People wearing bell bottoms were hipsters once. I was walking down the street in my grungy work clothes. I could tell this tourist outside the Hilton valet, wanted to say something. As I walked by, he kept looking, so I stared back. He said, "you cool bro." I said "not as cool as you." He said "keep portland weird bro." There's nothing weird or Portland about me. Im not from here. Im asian, been considered mexican, or native. Maybe I was wearing sunglasses and skipper type hat. Wow. Weird dude. I never think what to say in the moment and just said "keep looking, keep looking." I wish I said "i'm not your bro, bro." Then I wish I would've punched him in the face. All you idiots just need to be punched in your face
