DH, Portland is fantastic. Great bar scene, if a little on the incestuous side because it is, after all, a much smaller city than NYC.
Most people you meet will ask you all about NYC and Brooklyn, and you would be a big fish in a little pond.
There are a lot of hipsters in Portland.
I daydream about relocating out there or to the Pacific Northwest from time to time, but work keeps me tied here.
Benson, that’s hardly a debate! That’s the free-for-all Jscheff was hoping for when he posted that nonsense! And I still say no one’s panties would be all twisted up chokin’ em had the apartment been bought in Canarsie. That said, carry on 🙂 I won’t begrudge anyone their good times in that thread 🙂
Snaps – Your couch hunt is hilarious! I refuse to have a couch w/out rounded, stuffed arms & looked for years trying to find one – they were all corners & angles!
That Child running thread is hilarious
but seriously I guess I am old school, but when did it become commonplace to negotiate with a 4 year old?
I watched some woman on the train with her toddler and the toddler was going nuts, but I beleive the toddler was going nuts b/c the mother wasn’t just stopping it. So for 30 mins I had to endure the kid screaming and I mean MURDER screams b/c the mother was just politley saying -“ok, we don’t scream on the train” then the kid stops after like 5 murderous screams and says something about the stranger next to her and how she thinks it’s funny if she threw her ice cream in his face…
and the mother just giggled with her daughter. It was bizarre. I kinda left thinking wow this mother is a total prisnoer to her kid….
DH, about the only place I don’t see you packing up and heading for is something like Boise! I think Seattle could be for you though.
DH:
Portland is amazing, I visited once and realllly loved it

Thanks everyone re: Portland/Seattle – sounds interesting.
Bxgrl and Snappy;
Chill out!!! We’re having a debate, folks – isn’t that what the comments section is for???
PS: Bxgrl, the title “Sugar Daddy” was meant facetiously. That’s why it was in quotes. Once again – chill out.
Argh…posted that comment in the wrong thread! Oh well.
