Portlandian

A term commonly used by mistake by people not originally from Portland to refer to people that live in the Portland area, not realizing the proper term is Portlander. The term is derived from the show Portlandia, and incorrectly thus assumes that people of Portland are referred to as Portlandians. The term surfaced about 10 years ago for that reason, and is often used mockingly by Portlanders in reference to transplants who moved to the area, especially hipsters.

Portmandoughnut

A portmanteau with a fashionable glaze and a creamy raspberry-filled center of inanity; highly prized by slobs, fops, rubes, bone-noses & cubeheads for its palatable and convenient pathos on the one-hand but for also conferring the illusion of wit or sophistication on the other.
