are portland hipsters more socially/enviromentally conscious than brooklyn hipsters? serious question.

ime new yorkers who think they are green are at like 33% of pnw-er environmental consciousness, but i'm not sure how that breaks down with hipsters specifically.
― tehresa, Saturday, 22 January 2011 18:29 (thirteen years ago) link
honestly i think the platonic portland stereotype is really more a hippie thing. i mean there are keffiyehs and coke but that's not really what you make fun of when you make fun of portland.

I've already met a few Portlanders that were actually offended by this show. Of course, these guys are living, breathing Miranda July characters who spend their weekends creating hand-made board games and won't eat anything that comes out of a plastic bag. So mission accomplished, I guess.

the piece i heard yesterday on npr in which carrie b describes a pet shop who will sell her animal carcasses for her dog to chew on, but is outraged at the thought of carrying leather leashes.

I think I know the place she is talking about. It's in the Buckman neighborhood. I've never been there but that sounds like what I've read about the place.
When those 20 year olds retire and have kids, they all wind up going to Buckman Elementary.

really enjoyed this! the whole chicken farmer thing went on a bit too long and the payoff was v predictable but it had good things in it too.

Watched the first episode of this last night...my word it was terrible.

this was meh - not bad but not great either.
also Fred Armisen is like the ugliest motherfucker in the world. shudder to think of his hideous couplings with Peggy Olsen

trenchmouth was such a great band, fred rules as a drummer
anyway the skit about how local the chicken was was pretty funny IMO, i've gotten a pretty similar jive talk from waitresses at places in mpls

i watched my first ever ep of parks and recreation last night and didn't laugh once
immediately watched this and was in STITCHES.
agreed that buscemi sketch was the worst part but my god. the rest was just brilliant. so many of the lols weren't "in the script" so to speak - it wasn't all about clever-clever quips (like p&r) it was about armisen and brownstein just nailing certain attitudes and ways of speaking

Dog sketch slayed me. Really feels like we're just listening in on the private jokes of a couple. I wish they didn't push so hard for the punchline and just let the characters play out.

saw episode one today. it taught me two things i never would have thought possible: first, former sleater-kinney guitarist Carrie Brownstein can be funny; second, current snl cast member fred armisen can be funny.
