A private Catholic university that prides themselves on ethical behaviors and safety. Sadly, these values are only followed when it applies when asking for donations and recruiting students. The everyday workings of the University includes covering up misogynistic rants at the Wally Awards by students (witnessed by the University President who did nothing, hardly surprising), severely under paying employees, allowing bullying and abuse by high ranking employees, disproportionate workloads and believing all employees are easily replaced. Also, the University does their best to minimize publicity on sexual assaults, murders (2001 Murder in Mehling Hall) and crime in general. Keys to various buildings are naturally issued to employees when hired, but are rarely collected properly when the employee leaves the University. Meaning, that the campus is not nearly as secure as administration would like people to believe. In the 2001 murder of Katie Johnson, a master key had been stolen and used. The University failed to change the lock within a reasonable amount of time and the master key was used to access the building where the murder occurred. Also, there is no establish plan of action in the case of an on campus shooter. No plan for safety of students or employees.
The University of Portland loves to pontificate to the public about ethics and safety, but failed to follow their own teachings in regards to the 2018 Wally Awards or the 2001 murder of Katie Johnson.

Get the University of Portland mug.When someone from that shit hole of a hipster berg physically grabs your hand and makes you give them a hi five. Because you absolutely wouldn't do it if you were not forced to.
Can also be retaliation/solid transition from when another person does a "Face!" and shoves their hand in your face after an insult.

Get the Natalie Portman mug.The act of masturbation, typically female. A reference to the recent movie Black Swan, in which the plot pretty much revolved around Natalie Portman's masturbatory habits.
Karen: Katie sure has been in her room for a long time.
Liz: She's probably doing the Natalie Portman.
Karen: Oh, that probably explains why she took that underwear catalogue.

Get the Portland mug.A eerily clean city in the state of Oregon. It's full of hippies and there are too many environmentalists. The city itself is nice on the surface but then you just realize it is a wannabe Seattle. About half of it's metro population comes from Washington state. The blazers suck and the northern side of the city on the willamette is full of graffiti, thugs, and drugs. In the downtown area there is an enormous ammount of bums that will ask you for bus fair. The weather is nice but there are too many parks/rose gardes that allow free loaders to play hacky sack and be lazy in their tie die t shirts. The city is only successful because it tries to be like Seattle. The only good thing about this city is the fact that there is no sales tax. Essentially people from Vancouver, WA do all their shopping in Portland.
