A social phenomenon that occurs in the Portland Oregon area. It explains the difficulty of making new friends in the city of Portland, OR, especially being a transplant from outside of the city or state. New residents tend to describe Portlanders as generally polite but not warm and friendly. Very similar to the Seattle Freeze but possibly more perplexing because of the significant number of non-Oregonian/transplants in recent years.
Transplant: Hey, let's meet up sometime!
Portlander: *awkward silence for a few seconds*... Yeah. But I don't think I can, sorry.
Transplant: Hey, you heard of the Portland Freeze?
Portlander: Not really. Most people are transplants anyway. Maybe you're just not social.

Get the throat freeze mug.A "strategy" in clash royale where a high damage but low health unit is paired with an immobilization spell to enemy defenders to preserve the balloon's hitpoints so it can drop devastating bombs on the opponent's tower. this is a gay strategy that is another way to present to others that you are LGBTQ, so if you are LGBTQ but do not dare to express yourself to your LGBTQ crush, consider using balloon freeze in front of him. usually he/she will get the meaning that you are LGBTQ.
