Don't tax to bullet proof Portland, let private enterprise invest the capital, or else let Portland perish. No more boondoggles, like the Library, OHSU Tram, PSU Recreation Center, Killing baseball for Soccer stadium rip off, DMV software glitch, copy cat Water Bureau software glitch, ...what am I leaving out, here?
I love it when people tailgate me; just makes me go slower and then I get to laugh at their disgruntled facial expressions in the rearview mirror.
@Hank, you mean besides a diagnosis of bipolar and some evidence that she slips between realities pretty readily, not to mention problems holding down a stable "normal" job? This person really clearly needs help, and her existence is not simply a symptom of some lax or overworked state agencies, but also of a systemic problem with both treatment and recognition of mental illness in the state of Oregon.
I can't wait until the next budget cuts when the pigs really get the axe.
"We just voted for higher taxes so that Metro can maintain the properties that we voted for higher taxes so they could buy, but somehow couldn't foresee that they would have to maintain without asking us to raise our taxes some more." lmao right? That is fucking awesome!
IT isn't really science. What's needed in Portland, if Portland is to survive, however, are creative minds with knowledge and experience in mathematics, physics, geology, engineering, construction, and agriculture, who can make this city Earth quake proof, energy and food production self sufficient, pending an EMP and the long over due, 9.2. Let the economists and MBAss' figure out how many jobs this life saving project will create.
You should embarrass him in front of his friends. Revenge is sweet.
Two women fighting each other means this movie passes the Bechdel test, right?
Dumb people always got to give themselves excuses on why not to do the right thing.

Portland votes no on fluoride; then votes yes on raising taxes.
I wish the art hipsters would just slit their wrists and get it over with already.
Yeah, thank you Portland for ignoring people with master degrees in toxicology; water purification. These people obviously know nothing about fluoride.
I wish all you tourist fucks would leave Portland already.
I'd vote for Lowe based on that pic.
Portland needs to figure out other ways to address problems besides voting for more taxes to hand to incompetent local governments.
We just voted for higher taxes so that Metro can maintain the properties that we voted for higher taxes so they could buy, but somehow couldn't foresee that they would have to maintain without asking us to raise our taxes some more.
The local governments look at you idiots as stupid, vacant-eyed milk cows. And every time they sidle up to you, you give more milk.
The last time we raised our taxes was in November. Literally just six months ago. Next will be a parks levy. And they KNOW that you will vote yes - there is literally zero political downside or risk to coming to milk us again.
God this town is so fucking stupid. More academic intelligence than we could possibly need, but next to no practical intelligence.
Paul Constantly complaining about religion never gets old.
pretty edgy stuff there paul. next thing you're going to want mom to drop you off a block away from the concert.
Score one for modern science, score one for reason, and score one for taking bullies to task. Thank you Portland for not being swayed by fallacious, lazy journalism and junk corporate science from forty years ago.
Word! I wash my hands BEFORE I touch my penis.
My dick is a shining pillar of cleanliness.
The rest of the world? Not so much.
I got my mom the Barnes & Noble E meter for Christmas. I think it's called a Nook.
I think we should cut these guys some slack. When you get right down to it, as hilarious as it is, this stuff doesn't sound that much sillier than the tenets and beliefs of most other religions. It's just that it's newer and not as familiar to us.
As if spaceships and E meters are that much more crazy than dudes walking on water and flaming bushes serving as God's microphone.
Most of us don't have friends or relatives that are Scientologists, but we have plenty that are Christians or Jews (or subscribers to any of the other 'real' religions), and so we don't pay Scientology as much mind. But it's no more laughable than any of the others.
They're all adult-versions of Santa Claus. And while most of them work to instill good morals and altruism, mostly they just succeed in deluding us and making us feel superior to they that believe in 'the wrong God'.
