Maybe I'm just in a good mood, but I really admire I,A's commitment to hating planter boxes. Truly these things are the worst of ALL the things.

planter boxes: not good.

But safer than red boxes!

Right because people grow vegetables to save money and not have to walk to the store. Oh and hey, FYI vegetables are plants.

Or, you can buy their house and THEN you get to decide what to put in the planter strip. FFS, take a look around Portland. THIS is what you're going to rant about?

And another thing - strawberries are indigenous. Kentucky bluegrass? Not so much.

You are a dick to let your dog piss on the peas. And do you know what is worth more then money, doing something you enjoy doing.

In a city as health conscious as Pdx I'm am amazed at how many people like to grow their veggies next to the streets with cars expelling fumes and leaking oil, and all the trash.. I guess not everyone likes organic food, but it still seems odd to grow veggies next to the gutter.

What's the harvest yield for one of those planter boxes? 11 dollars in produce? I'm pretty sure your water bill alone makes it so you are PAYING out the ass to grow stuff next to exhaust fumes etc.

And all the produce you buy at the store is organically grown in unicorn poop, harvested by virgins and imported by a legion of fairies.

I/A wears the I Pooped Today t-shirt.

I just got my OMMP card so I'm going to rip out all of my grass and plant a field of 6 foot tall weed plants. That's how it works right?

mtngoatz - oh thank you, you've just reminded me of total gem of a stupid Portland thing: Veloprovo!

"the bicycling radicals of Veloprovo planted broccoli shoots and sunflower seeds next to the freeway on ODOT property in an act of rebellion against pollution, against globalized export economies, and against car-dominated concrete barriers to the banks of the Willamette river."

I can't read that without cackling.
