    Nah, SF feels safer than Portland.

    No sorry, blood elves are too slutty even for Portland.
    Maybe around PSU....

    No, even blood elves are tame for Portland. Remember, it wanst that long ago it had a swingers club owned by Ron Jeremy for gods sake.

    Portland went from having an amazing punk scene, then it shifted towards multiple types of music. At some point, all the hipsters moved in, and most of the cool people took off. It's still a very nice city, but I think it definitely lacks the personality it used to have. As for strip clubs, it makes sense. It's a fairly young town, and who doesn't like to see naked people?

    So...I'm expected to come up with various instances where a $2 is useful (rather, more useful than other currency because, for some strange reason, the usefulness of a $2 has to be greater than the usefulness of other bills), yet you can only come up with one instance where it's not useful (which hardly make it "useless")?

    And besides, our understanding on the appendix might be incomplete, so you're free to re-tool your analogy (because otherwise you're saying there's a secret good to having $2 bills).

    Yes, I've paid with $2 before. Once, I had to teach a young cashier that it was legal tender. She called her manager over. We laughed it off as the cashier being "young". She thought it was neat and was going to keep it.

    We aren't, atleast not directly. We just have a lot of red counties out in the middle of bum-fuck. Surprisingly enough, there are counties that are cannabis dry. Frankly I'm all for legalized, regulated prostitution, I've let Wyden know that, but he's too busy federally legalizing cananbis to care.

    Portland is the middle of BFE, the rural areas are even worse.

    Wyden's too busy smoking it to care!

    A lot of people are also ignorant of why a dollar bill might be worth more than 20. Fun fact for why you should pay attention to the bills that pass between people. A few silver notes still float around getting used as singles.

    Actually Portland is right on I5, runs through Seattle and L.A. at some point. Really Portland is as much as a hub as those two cities, just the smaller of the 3. The rural areas are mostly Eastern Oregon, where it starts to get a little Wyoming out there.

    No, Portland isnt a hub, its a scab that slows transit between LA and Seattle down. One look at its "skyline" shows its lack of importance. I know it likes to think its important, but its the also-ran of the west coast.

    (OK, Portland is a transportation hub because that is the end of line for Union Pacific and I-84 but it does serve as a bottleneck for north-south shipping, and as a port it is on par with little Cowlitz County down river a ways.)

    Portland has a dark and sordid history, remember this is the city that had an entire underground network dedicated to druging and kidnapping dudes in bars and strip clubs so they could sell them as labor to ship captains, they even had trap doors and shit in some bar. When the kidnapped dudes woke up they would already be out to sea. The whole hipster weird thing is a modern rebranding. The city is also situated over a wide area meaning more clubs. no one wants to drive and hour for a stripper.

    go to any port city in the mid-late 1800's or early 1900's and this would happen.....especially on the west coast. it wasn't exclusive to portland.

    Its no so much that it is spread out (Portland is smaller than Denver) it is the fact it was built in a horrible location bisected by a river (and hemmed in by another) and a high bluff.
