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.
portland east refers to portland, maine. while portland, west refers to portland, oregon. Ptown in Maine is going through a pretty cool scene right now, i.e. a lot of underground stuff. It's pretty sweet. If you ever find yourself in Portland East check out the old port. there's a lot of sick shops and places to get grub. tons of interesting people down here too. you get the idea.
Portland East is my hometown, and by far the best town.
