Portland, Oregon

as much fun as we have, those last two are just for perspective.

MOHTERFUCKING COCK SUCKER every time I post something poingent and relevant longer than two sentances I somehow erase the whole fucking thing. so I said something smart and conversationaly about the situation across america and it was great but I'm not retyping that so just pretend you read it and reply accordingly

oh YEAH... i'm sure it was REAL great.

haha... no, yeah, its kindof weird. because like, i AM the gentrification thats happening to this neighborhood. but you know... its good too because i get to live by the mountain and the ocean and junk.

so you know... fuck 'em. barack obama will figure it out.

IT WUZ REALLY GREAT U RACIST GENTRIFYING HIPPIE FUCKER

I got off work last night at midnight and somewhere in portland i knew there were more than a thousand naked cyclists ready to ride. i'm definitely going to the world naked bike ride next year.

"If there's one thing Portlanders love more than bikes, it's their First Amendment. Home to the most strip clubs per capita in the US, it's no wonder Portland is home to the largest World Naked Bike Ride in North America."

“Public nudity” is legal in Oregon, with a few obvious exceptions. See ORS 163.465 and especially the last paragraph of Chapter 167. However, Portland has adopted a stricter “indecent exposure” law, 14A.40.030, which conflicts with Oregon's “public nudity” law. Basically, Portland says you have a horrible, wicked thing between your legs and you should be ashamed of it. Going topless is still okay though."

shit, I didn't realize that was this weekend. Only caught it 2 years ago and last year we missed it by 5 mins the whole night.

random thought: it has only ever happened to me in portland, and nowhere else but the pacific northwest can you ever suddenly realize as you're emptying your pockets, that in the left pocket, wrapped in plastic, you have a candy bar-sized chunk of homemade salmon lox, and in the right pocket, two sticks of handmade salmon jerky.

I can honestly say that has never happened to me.

happy 4th from the port!

Have u been to any of these?

I like when they start talking about the club that caters to a young, upscale crowd and cut to guy that looks neither young nor upscale and how the owner refers to his stripper employees as "junk" as if it's a compliment

i have been to mary's club. its been there since 1965? its on one of the main drives downtown. i like how they say it caters to "an artsy, yet downhome" crowd! what does that even mean? not sure what he's referring to as a "representative cross-section" either. he didn't mention Union Jacks, the hippest stirp club in town, or Magic Garden, where i was drunk and gave my phone number to a stripper who was also a taxidermist. i have not been to devil'ls point but i have high hopes for it. its very far southeast (whereas i am northeast).

thought you gym nerds might find this at least mildly amusing...

I missed this when it happened, but I guess some kid shot some ppl to up his murder/suicide gamerscore in portland last week?

His suicide note had very important details for his roommate:

You know my ps3 is special. Similar USED ps3's go for AT LEAST $450-$500. Our landlord guy wants a ps3 like mine. Let him know that $400 would be a GOOD deal. If he doesn't want it, format the drive by going to Settings>System>Format Utility. You can say it "comes with the latest firmware software" to help market it on the internet. In case you don't know, it's the special "100% backwards compatible" (60 GB) ps3.

I finally made it out to Devil's Point. The girls were hot and covered in tattoos but the guys that work there sucked. It is way too far southeast to make it worth my while. I got a nice lap dance and spent way too much money there. Devil's Point had nice girls but Union Jacks is still the best strip club that I have been to in Portland, far and away.

Is it fully n00d? All the ones in cago suck. If they serve alcohol, they can't even show titty.

srsly? yeah its fully nood. but they don't allow gambling or even playing cards that looks like gambling - weak! the sexy highlight of the night was the girl stormy drinking gramma's beer and spitting it out on her tits and vag. actually my lapdance was shitty though. why pay $20 bucks for two minutes? pretty pointless.

Wut are you talking aboot? Admiral is fully nood and u have been there (no alcohol though). There is a new byob(!) that's fully nood in the south loop as well. The only one that I'm aware that isn't is VIP. There a few on the southside and near o'hare.

hangin out with nikki and abbey!
