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 Portland mug.The best hipster show ever created. It comes along with many inside jokes that only other Portlandia fans can understand. In which case, if you haven't seen this show, then do not reuse any inside jokes that come along with it to other Portlandia fans; it will only instigate more inside jokes that you may not know of creating extreme confusion.
You know Portlandia when you're always putting a bird on it.
Cacao to any other show that isn't Portlandia.
p.s. so OVER this.
