    Portland and Seattle, Washington and Oregon - those are the same things. If you think the place you’re taking shits is better or different then you’re wrong.

    Same shit. Trees, rain, hobos. Just a few degrees latitude difference. Amazon, Microsoft, Intel, Nike. Same shit.

    Sales tax and pumping gas are the difference, that’s it. We have to rely on our football teams to tell us what is better.

    Seattle is objectively superior to Portland, and I say this as someone who hates both cities.
    Same exact shit. It’s the same city, just two hours away. I have to spend time in both, and there’s no difference. Portland has better food, Seattle is less stabby.

    My sister (NO PICS!) used to date a guy who went to the University of Oregon. I asked her what he majored in and she replied, “math”.

    To which I replied, “did he do his senior project on the multiplication table?”

    Are you sure she didn't say "meth"?

    You all laugh, but this was a real live debate over at Doogman years back. It morphed into a state level debate where people were comparing / competing over which state had the better geographical topography and greater natural beauty. CastlerockRon/royotis was throwing down for Washington, arguing that Oregon just didn't have an answer for Mt. Rayonier. There were protracted arguments between morons over whether Olympic National Park was better than Crescent Lake, etc. etc.

    This literally went on for months and people were taking it seriously.

    So who won?!!

    As someone who likes both Seattle and Portland, they are way fucking different

    Seattle is an international city with a fuckton of business and construction going on. It feels like living in a big city to live here and work downtown

    Portland is what you get if you combined Tacoma, Eugene, and Spokane. Fun to visit and go to clubs in. Not a big city feeling. Walking around feels like youre in Tacoma.
    tacoma is a city?
