Re: “My Oregon Craft Beer Month: Violent Grandparents and Marijuana”
Hops and cannabis are very closely related (I believe they are the same genus?), which can explain the similarity in smell and taste, the laws forbidding growing hops in some places, and the fact that most stoners are hopheads and vice versa. Both IPA and weed give you the munchies, both of them make music sound better, and both are socially acceptable in Portland and will get you the noose in Bible-land.
Re: “Video of Bar Fight & Gun Shot Outside Sewickly's”
A little birdy also told me that Sewickly's is under investigation by the OLCC for a bartender slipping roofies into drinks.
I'm not a fan of the OLCC but at some point you gotta say enough's enough.
Speaking of enough's enough- goddamn the 'hood is overrun by hipsters these days. Maybe the old graffiti at hipster corner was right:
"Too many hipsters. Not enough crime". Maybe getting a little Wild Wild West action will chase them back to Mississippi and Alberta.
Just kidding.
Re: “Take A Ride Down Cesar Chavez Boulevard”
Seriously, what pisses me off about this is going from "avenue" to "boulevard". 39th is barely a "street", much less an "avenue". By renaming it to a "boulevard", they encourage more lost suburbanites to wonder into our little hovel over here, and then stay- which is fine, as long as you assimilate and don't bring a fuckin' Pottery Barn to Hawthorne.
Chavez Boulevard my ass! What is this, LA? "Cesar Chavez Avenue", if you must. Or, better yet- "Via Cesar Chavez".
"Via Cesar Chavez". Yeah, I can live with that.
Re: “Corey Feldman Dresses Up Like Jacko at Memorial! YESSS!!”
I love you Corey.
Re: “A Little Bitterness with Your Coffee?”
I love the Escalade dude singing the country tunes. Yes. Not all of us are indie bastards.
And there's nothing ironic about my cowboy hat. Keeps my neck from getting burned while I'm out walking along singing whatever the hell I feel like.
I dont mind the New Yorkers, as long as they assimilate quickly- usually a big bag o' homegrown green does the trick.
What I *do* mind are all of you hipster FUCKS who walk around with a scowl and a frown like the world owes you something more. WTF?!? You are in Oregon. It's summer! It would do you good to smile.
Or go do something dramatic like hang yourself from the Steel Bridge. Get your misery off our streets and entertain the rest of us.
Re: “New Urban Renewal Area? Cue Controversy...”
Watch out for Con-way. They own that land in NW and they want to build a 600-foot tall tower (and a canal!). This while they continue to screw with employees and play power games that few here seem to be privy to. This is part of their game to get more money from the city and take it into the pockets of union-busting execs. They are not to be trusted. Figures they are allied with Sam.
Re: “Today In Pdx...Giant Blue Ice Penises”
Must be Luke Skyywalker. "14 inches long and 8 inches thick!" Ohh...ohh....
