What people from Portland, Maine, call the city to make it sound cool when it really isn't. It is synonymous with 'jealous poser' because Portland, Oregon, took its name and did it the right way.
Gertrude: "Ya man, I'm from Portland East."
Malone: "What the fuck? You mean East Portland? Like Burnside, Mt. Hood, the Trailblazers and shit?"
Gertrude: "No, Portland, Maine. We have a cool indie scene..."
Malone shivs Gertrude in the neck.
Malone: "Portland North East, ho."

Get the Portland East mug.A city in Oregon where a keen stench of rebellion and hipster fills the air. Everyone hates everyone and you only fit in if you are homeless, beautiful, or own stock in Nike. The population of white girls increases at such a rapid rate that a Starbucks must be opened at every corner in order to prevent famine. No one knows if pot is legal or not but every 80 year old with "glaucoma" smokes it. The people of Portland also have their own dictionary that consists of: Yeah, Naw, Dope, Huh, and "No, it's too mainstream..." Pack some form of self defense as your current view of what's cool may be stolen and gang raped.

Get the Portland mug.Related Words
The nicest city In the United States. Lots to do for active Liberal minded outdoor folk. Laid back atomosphere. Much better than Vancouver BC or Seattle. Those two cities are rude and filled with thugs and drugs and annoying folk. Especially Vancouver, My HOME. I would like to relocate in Portland some day in the future.

Get the Portland Walrus mug.A city full of bikes, books, bars, beers, boutiques, baristas, brunch and Bloody Mary's, as well as a million neighborhoods worth visiting for their bars, boutiques and brunch. Portlanders also love gelato, food carts, parks, facial hair, plaid flannel, vintage shops, colleges, public transportation, liberals, reusable grocery bags, vegans and vegetarians, tattoos and piercings, and dogs, and unlike residents of Seattle who claim to love the rain, Portlanders don't like it that much (but still refuse to use umbrellas). And it's true, all the hot girls do wear glasses. Also it's totally possible to bike from southeast to St. Johns in an hour because it's not a real big place.

Get the Portland mug.Portland, Oregon is the one of the most beautiful, clean, and unique city on the West coast. Though Portland may have many different 'scenes' and 'types' of locals (yuppies, hipsters, folkies...etc), we all have have something in common...the love and respect for our environment. It's an artsy city as the Willamette river divides the city in two creating even more subcultures. However, as city development continues and housing prices start to rise, what used to be cool parts of Portland are turning into high-priced, fabricated yuppie scenes.
Aside from all the outdoorsy activity that Portland offers, the city hosts an awesome music scene. Many great bands come from Portland and most bands that travel from San Fransisco to Seattle stop at one of many Portland's great venues.
P.s. Californians stay out
