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.

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
