It isn't something I tune into regularly though but its pretty damn funny. As far fetched as some of the behavior may seem a lot of it is pretty damn accurate, albeit a tad exaggerated at times. Portland can be a bit of a freak show depending on where you're at. So many bizarre personalities. In a lot of ways the culture reminds me of San Francisco.
the dream of the 90's is alive in Portland!

San Francisco is a very good comparison. We have a lot of those types here in L.A. just not as concentrated as up north. And it really is only slightly exaggerated in some cases, I think that's why I like it so much. They really nail some of these characters and situations.

Man Bend is way to the opposite end of the spectrum than Portland. Not a whole lot of diversity here.
