Did You Read? - Portlandia on IFC

[mmr11027]

I joined a small group of networkers. There are bloggers, small business owners, designers, etc. you get the picture. It's just like this with articles and books. Everybody's doing the intellectual equivalent of whipping it out with a measuring tape. It gets real old real fast.

[p0rnmonkey]

this would be more funny if i could read

[dme257]

this skit is funny but to be honest i did nooot like the end of it

[SolMerc]

This is Reddit.

[Toxward]

DJ Douggpound's editing excellence at work.

[iridiacreative]

I miss the days when that place was Xenos.

[mitchstinks247]

If you don't like it then just don't watch it. Fucking YouTube troll.

[peterjustpeter]

Bullseye! This show is damn good. More please!

[Gmancrap]

Boring...

[typeG808]

@daTruChosen,what a little bitch go watch another Noah Baumbach movie and jerk off to the science section in the times

[1991Hatcher]

"Did you read the thing that guy wrote in the sand!?!?!"

[SounderBruce]

A person from Portland reading a publication from Seattle? Absurd!

[OddSqodd]

Classic classic classic. Check out our sketch comedy group for more funny videos!

[squeapler]

these people must have all this time to read because they don't have jobs.

[genemeyer408]

These are my parents.

[Hugo411]

Huey Lewis was so right so long ago.....it really is HIP to be SQUARE.

[AndyTabelz]

I DID NOT LIKE THE END OF IT!

[chelseamuse72]

Eco ways to sit.

[VivaLaVivienne]

Did you see that one clip on Portlandia? I did NOT like the end of it...

[Theonegamefreak]

That's not reading..

[GregofCanada]

I hate this show, but this sketch was pretty funny. Especially the end of it.

[ItsQuin]

Reddit sent me here.

[crisco7241]

I did not like the end of it lol

[CrystalJPei]

Does anyone know what the name or where to get the Portlandia text messaging sound? like the one at 0:03

[pontaray]

@CrystalJPei I think it is an iPhone ring tone

[daTruChosen]

Damn I miss college: choppin' down fine ass Michigan coffee shop babes; puffin' skunk with them WILD ass white dudes from Wisconsin; open mic show poets; crowd-drawing emcee battles on the library stoop; buying 3$ CD's from the record show; trips to ATL; weekends at Myrtle Beach... damn, it all ended too soon.

[daTruChosen]

Am I the only person that sees the genius of this skit? I was SO a victim of the consumerist pseudo-intellectualism fostered by college life, and that is brilliantly satired here. It's like, if you hadn't read the latest edgy book or article, seen the latest play at Trustus, caught that anticipated House of Blues show, then you were somehow a loser. It was only post-grad, when everyone went their separate ways, that the reality of life on one's own hit that I realized, I just gotta be me.

[quietsheep]

@daTruChosen that's because you're the true chosen!

[FoiledFailure]

@daTruChosen I feel like you're still a victim of pseudo-intellectualism.

[DarthChubbyChaser]

@FoiledFailure I laughed so hard when I read his, I peed a little.

[Gmancrap]

You mean like the people who like this show?

[7dlove]

@FoiledFailure Definitely. -______-

[aaarooon9]

@daTruChosen The irony.... THE IRONY!

[Revrant]

@daTruChosen Your name belies your observational skills.

[andysj531]

@daTruChosen No, you're not the only one who gets it.

[TheUltimateShield]

@daTruChosen Of course you're not the only person that sees that, fake-genius

[Gmancrap]

And you're a victim yet again by watching this show.

[Jonmad17]

@daTruChosen "Being yourself" is just a euphemism for uniformed, willfully ignorant, apathetic idiot.

[TheAnonimousCoward]

@Jonmad17 uninformed*

[indecentthinking]

@Jonmad17 No, being yourself is being yourself. How the fuck that translates into being a dumbass is nonsense. Just because someone doesn't want to act like a group of people would doesn't make them unintelligent, uninformed, ignorant, or have no sense of the world around them. and god, I hope you're not being yourself, because the real you sounds like an asshole.

[MissElectricRainbow]

Psh, reading sent me here.

[SickingerIndustries]

Reading is so OVER

[Pentopium]

"Sure. Sure. Sure."

[Gangu5Kahn]

"It say's dont walk, can't you read?" I guess Portland is a little weirder than they though...because they forgot to mention that pedestrians have the right away regardless.

[thepeacesignfactory]

@Gangu5Kahn So your saying pedestrians can just walk out into traffic regardless? I thought that would get you killed in most American cities. I'm always hearing of cases where a driver is not charged for killing someone walking where they should not walk. In Maryland record numbers of Hispanics are getting injured and killed for not crossing at cross walks. The news always mentions, " The driver was not charged".

[Gangu5Kahn]

@thepeacesignfactory Well if they aren't at a cross walk or somethin then its still jay walking...but they have the right away too as well...It goes in this order...Pedestrians, Bikes, Cars..

[thewirah1]

Annoying

[jessface777]

The endings are always good even if the sketch isn't amazing lol

[musikfanat]

Funny, my calendar has Friday as the 20th-someone better get it together...

[fadusysko]

the dude with the glasses,is that the dude that wakes up in a roadside ditch?

[AJasonMichael]

I did like the ending.

[MasonTheMuffinMan]

this is like almost Tim and Eric humor, love it.

[pgoodrick]

Pretty sure the dream of the 90s didn't include the internet being geoblocked.

[Kaboom147]

Lmfao. This is so horribley like Portland.

[umacenuff]

I did not like the end of this.

[veggirl99]

DID you read--

DID you read--

[aaronjordan938]

29 people didn't read it.

[lynnin4]

@aaronjordan938

original! do these stupid as fuck comments still get thumbs uped?

Tool.

[MegaSupaFine]

I feel like to find new ideas for the show, they all go around Portland and observe other people and then exaggerate what they do.

[DreadPresident]

@MegaSupaFine this is not an exxageration at all, and this happens in all major cities.

[retro80s70s]

YES

YES

[ehhsielove]

[TrajanGregory]

F'in hilarious ..... Over the top caricatures, but still F'in hilarious .... Fred Armisen's sketch comedy is zany and rich, and maybe not to everyone's tastes, but I love what he and Carrie are pulling off ....

[xXHawkCheerXx]

It's not WKUK...but still good.

[NikkerFilms]

The Harvard Lampoon is NOT well-written...

[themuzer]

this is williamsburg, echo park, and wicker park as well

[iAMaPOTTERdork]

i secretly wish i was a hipster, though.

[trilobright]

They should've mentioned the Phoenix, not the Globe.

[rayuelina]

I think this also applies to certain parts of Brooklyn

[KreyaHammond]

Ugh, I live in portland, and I have friends who do this. ;P Well, before they ate the papers, of course...

[KreyaHammond]

I read magazines and newspapers before they were mainstream.

[s0ulfire]

What wrong with Freddie Mercury?

[Mappyman]

That remix of DeadMau5, did you listen to it? Did you hear the live version? I did not like the end of it.

[BelaMilhomem]

That was cute. // Of course I did!

[tadamr]

20 people didn't like the end of it

[97stones]

the only reason i watched the hole thing is because I was to busy eating a pop-tart

[LeComaAnim]

Hellll yeah I love the Seattle Stranger

[roboimp]

SF Weekly is nothing but ads for medical marijuana and erotic "massages" or peepshows. The only thing worth reading about it is it's a good place to find out about bands playing shows in the bay area.

[Kaineiribas]

1:00 she laughs a little bit. So cute

[littlbigtree]

Shur

[DiJohnny18]

Ahahahahahahahahaha! XD

[Arbow1986]

Why did you not say "Did you read Exotic Magazine?"

fucking seriously. Because of that I public diss you in the march issue!

[Singformefriend]

I wanna go to Portland!

[goodolarchie]

LMAO I love living in portland, they do an awesome job parodying it.

[JPhil151]

haha eco chairs and eco ways to sit lol!

[icerider1982]

This is what you called "Book smart" not" Street smart".

[ilovemytophes]

Did you read the thing that guy wrote in the sand on the beach? Yes.

[abb100bb]

Don't people have ears, just because the guy at the end say something someone in New York might say doesn't make him sound like he has a New York accent. He doesn't sound like anyone that has a New York accent to me, only someone that is saying what he is saying! Fing narrow minded conservatives.

[theultimateotaku]

Yes. yes. yes. yes. YEAH! YEAH! YEAH! YEAH! Did you read it? Did you read it? Did you read it? Did you read? Did you read? Did you read?

[termanogue]

I think the ending is hilarious, supposedly they'd read everything, but they can't read a simple sign that says "don't walk"

[broseflaudy]

@termanogue THANK GOD SOMEBODY EXPLAINED IT FOR ME

[bemyers]

@termanogue Thanks captain obvious.

[randobanana]

[diva1675]

Sometimes this show needs to figure out its endings better.

[smosherx]

Press f13 for 1080p!

[ImperativeNation]

Isn't that the same woman who's in The Thermals video?

It would make sense, since the Thermals are from Portland.
