@shellylovelace I can only think of about two from off the top of my head: 1. Matt Greoning, creator of The Simpsons. (Many characters on The Simpsons are named after streets in Portland, such as Rev. Lovejoy, etc.) 2. Will Vinton, creator of Claymation (the dancing and singing California Raisins from the early 1990s). Oh, wait, I can think of a third ... Chuck Palahniuk, author of Fight Club. But these people aren't necessarily famous personally; their works are.
@coursestudent I don't think Storm Large quite makes it. The peak of her career was being on Rockstar Supernova. She came back to Portland, and now apparently is a celebrity -- at least in Portland. She just wrote a book, and is about do star in an Off Broadway version of it. I first saw her perform at a place called Dantes, which I believe is a place that you (Courtney) used to perform in, back when it had a different name. It's on Burnside right next to Chinatown.
I Live in LA,Portland can't be worse than LA.Most ppl i know are unemployed and living with there parents or rooming with 5 other ppl in a 1 bedroom apartment.
I live in portland, and the job market is shit here. Well if you want to come and work some 9-5 shit crap job that pays you 12 bucks an hour to make mochas feel free to come to Portland! Also if you have 20 yrs experience and 2 PhD' then also feel free to come here! So portland caters to the people that already HAVE money and the people who don't care about having money... what who am I fooling this city sucks shit. DON"T COME TO PORTLAND!!! Save yourself the disappointment.
This is stupid. Wish Portlanders could clearly see that they (we)...are being laughed at. These people all have jobs that pay quite well being actors. I will agree Portland needs to get it's act together. People move to Portland to do nothing and look forward to being laid off and consider unemployment a blessing. We don't need that. We need ambitious people that have business sense. Hipsters, please go back to the midwest and be lazy there! PLEASE!!
I was one of the 12%-ers, and had to move back to dumpy old Philly to look for work. As much as I like and respect some things about Portland, I have to say the city has no business sense at all. When I walk into one of the fanciest law firms in town and see a girl with a bone through her nose and pink hair behind the front desk, it doesn't make me want to hand my money over to that firm.
Yeah! Why can't a sketch comedy show solve the Unemployment crisis. I saw a Monty Python where it's supposed to be teaching self defense, but a guy gets shot holding a banana! This is the same type of violent overreaction we see from the Seattle PD on a regular basis, and it needs to stop! And Sponges in pineapples under the sea? C'mon!

This video means nothing. No one here is doing nothing especially the Worksource Employment department where you are a number. The REAl rate here is 26% if not more. MSI laid me and 199 others off and got lower wages in Arkansas because NAAFTA is legal and there are tons of companies here that have done the same thing because NAAFTA has made it legal and our govt is getting a check for sending jobs abroad. Evil has struck this country and it is not getting better. I hate what Portland has done.
@PamelaRP I just...I don't know how to respond to this entirely. I mean, you know this is a sketch comedy show right? Like...like they're making jokes. Hahas. Chistes. You know?
Every time I hear that song I think of childish gambino's version
