When you get to Portland, tell them that you are from someplace other than California. there be a certain disdain for the former citizens of the golden state up round there. It would be the same as if you admitting that you were a conservative republican in San Francisco…
My mother in law who lives there still gives me #$%^ for being a former Californian, despite my obvious charm. (ha! these are the jokes people) It’s that half serious half joke kind of @#$%… but it is @#$% none the less.

This is the funniest one I’ve seen in a long time! “Wanna hear a secret?”

PE- I think it’s really fucking stupid when people judge other people because of the city they come from. I’m from California & I fucking love California but I also love Oregon. I have no interest in associating with people who will apply said distain to others because of that. I prefer my friend’s asses without sticks shoved up ‘em.

Whole heartedly agree. Still it happens… I live in Nevada, and I always hear the grumbling “dammed Californians, raising the price of yada yada yada, dang smoking ban, go back to California.” Like i were a leper or something.

I think so long as you’re not a jerk you’ll do fine.
The ones everyone seems to hate are the ones who move north to basically set up colonies. Their little strip mall suburbs surround Portland (Tigard, for example). They only seem to venture into Portland proper to visit our fine nightclubs and department stores.
I believe they used to be called yuppies?

I’m from Hawaii, where they still have lepers. Will that count double against me?

only if you are one, and only around hot tubs…
mmm oatmeal….

Hi, I’m a Portlander.
The whole “hostile to Californians” thing is a relic of the past these days. There are still a few holdouts, but these aren’t people you’d want to be friends with anyway. It’s not something you seriously have to worry about. Also, San Francisconians are always welcome here.
April 5th, 2007 at 2:00 pm
yeah, get out while you still can. damn strange cats sneaking in and stealing your secrets.

as a california transplant to Portland myself, i have never once encountered trouble with the natives. curmudgeons wil grumble about whatever the hell, but often the first thing people ask a stranger in this town is “where are you from?”. to say you’re from california will often get a “me too” response.
although, should you mispronounce certain street names, people will giggle. couch street in particular.

Portland values its comic authors:

lol nice
I love how people think if they don’t get what they want, then they get their second choice for free T_T fuckin’ greedy bastards…
lol and my roommate and I almost moved to portland (before she became “attatched”).
Portland’s cool, but I hear frightening things about humble. lol

move to new york!

All signs point north, for sure.
In fact, the only sign you haven’t gotten yet is when the walls of your apartment start to bleed and hearing a strange voice from the attic screaming, “get OOOOUUUTTT!”
It’s time, dude.

Come on egland!

oopsy! England not egland……a land of eggs would rock

Portland Smortland. You should move to Baltimore.

Just to agree with many other commenters, I think the whole “Oregonians hate Californians” thing is less true these days. I’ve been in Portland for over a year and a half and haven’t heard any anti-Californian sentiment, nor have any of my ex-Californian friends. In Portland, if someone asks you where you’re from, chances are they aren’t from here either. Portland will love you.

You only begin to really worry if the cat tells you HER secrets. At that point, Oregon is not the answer.
April 8th, 2007 at 6:03 pm
Oregon sucks. They love Nazis up there and it rains all year. If you already went there, come back to California. If you didn’t, don’t go. Because I live in California and think you’re cute, you have to change your entire lifestyle in order to date me. Ya, that’s it.
April 8th, 2007 at 7:48 pm
Julia..forget those (mostly) snobbish non-californians. Move East, to Rhode Island. tell everyone you’re from California! Heck, you’ll find a bunch of californians out here who made the move years ago. Your ex-pats are calling to you, and I am almost certain Providence is cheaper than Portland. Pretty great underground comic culture here as well. Has been for years.
April 8th, 2007 at 8:36 pm
ed- sorry, but you must have missed the part where I admitted to being a 45 y/o fat dude making comics about a young girl. I mean, we can still date & all, if you don’t mind halitosis and crotch rot.

Funny. I’m getting those whisperings for the Desert.
Besides what’s wrong with sleeping in the closet? In the 90’s the called that ergonomics…
September 26th, 2008 at 12:45 am
Why, WHY do you sleep in a closet? My friend showed em this site because he said you reminded him of me…and it’s funny as all hell. I just don;t get why you sleep in a closet…did I miss a strip?

I know I’m posting to a thread that’s been dead two years, but there’s nothing good on TV.
It’s important to remember that Portland and Oregon are two very different things. Portlanders have more in common with Californians than they do with Oregonians. And then there’s the whole issue of Jeffersonians, which I won’t really get into. In P-town no one will care where you’re from. Venture anywhere else in the state and you will hear cries of “Cali Go Home!”
Me: born and raised in the great state of Jefferson, have lived in Portland for three years. I’m not crazy about Rhubarb. OK, that’s enough about me.

Closet beds are awesome. If my closet was big enough I would totally sleep there too.
