Me too!
deathblow98
Thank goodness I'm not the only one.
HipsterFett
I have a friend who lives in Portland. She had to stop watching the show because it got too real.
imyourrealdad
It's an acquired sense of humor. It has not been acquired by anyone I know though.
ThatOneBoii
As someone who lives in Portland, sadly, its pretty accurate.
JibbetyJibbety
I feel like Portlandia is more of a documentary than a comedy show
DrEhrfurchtgebietend
clevernametom
I'm right there with you.
doucher
First couple seasons weren't bad. The rest suck. They are so damn spot on though. Source: I live in Portland, OR.
PBusPass
The dream of the 90s is alive in Portland
KittyBoo93

nipplepanties
It's not exactly a punchline kind of humor.
TigerThief
More of a character study.. I like it
Jab091
Same here, watched the first two episodes and then gave up on it.
Gungagin
I personally like it. If you don't its cool. This is more of an Unpopular Opinion meme though
OnlyCoolKidsHaveTheBeetus
I wasn't sure which to go with. I'm not the best at memeing.
Mattman310
peanutterbutter
i actually don't think that many people like it. it's just so damn accurate
theHawaiianBeatJunkie
Damn I just did the same thing. 2 episodes was enough.
steelerchief
you watch the first season, or jump in later? Also- the jokes only work if you've been to Portland. (Portlander here).

Put a bird on it.
GREATGAMEBUDDY
Bird up!!
ButterfaceTaintClown
Preferably the popular opinion puffins.
FourFiveFire
That's the OPs problem, they definitely did not put a bird on it.
FillMyPrescriptions
We can pickle that.
humanaction
portlandia's so over
eyedoc
So many upvotes!
TheSixtySix
I get the same thing with Always Sunny.
OnlyCoolKidsHaveTheBeetus
Also not a fan of that show. Same kinda weird/award humor.
FeatherAlaska
I lived in Iowa when it first came on tv and it was eh. Then I moved to Seattle, lived there for a bit, saw it on Netflix and it killed meXD
arrkay
I watched a bit of it and didn't like it either. Also don't really like the office. "Real" / awkward humor just bugs me.
Newthoenikker
It's not "real" humor. It's a skit show. Just because a lot of people like something doesn't mean you will
arrkay
Oh, thanks for letting me know I'm not expected to like everything under the sun.
FusRoDoodles
OnlyCoolKidsHaveTheBeetus
Agreed. I actually just told my boyfriend watching it was making me uncomfortable. Not my cuppa tea
Kyrremann
But that's the point. To be uncomfortable.
aegis27
Some portion of the population is actually too empathetic to watch cringe shows like that. I certainly can't.
OnlyCoolKidsHaveTheBeetus
Agreed. I think most people dislike feeling uncomfortable
kidswat
This is me and the Big Bang Theory
thisisnttuna
that and supernaturals, marvel movies, dc movies
pigletwhisper
God that show is awful
Peldie
I found BBT funny when it started. Became quite boring quite soon.
jeremizzle
Well The Big Bang Theory is terrible
Disembowleeh
My wife refers to it as "The Nerd/Geek Blackface Hour".
Eunoterp
Absolutely vapid
OnlyCoolKidsHaveTheBeetus
I know quite a few people who don't like big bang. I don't mind it, nor do I love it.

OnlyCoolKidsHaveTheBeetus
Yeah I was the opposite with 2 broke girls. Hated it when I first saw it. Now I love it just cause its so awful.
FusRoDoodles
Big Bang Theory gets significantly better if you pretend Kaley Cuoco is still the same character she was in Charmed.
economyinthis
She was in Charmed?! Wow, missed that one.
FusRoDoodles
Like the last season. Which was terrible. But I like to imagine she moved on from that and has bewitched desperate nerds.
Isthisatest
I'm no meme expert but I think this is more of an unpopular opinion and not a confession
WickedWitchoftheMidwest
Its okay, this isn't a test.
ThePerdplesCourt
Crythulhu
Nah, he confessed that he didn't like it. Puffin meme would be "portlandia is really stupid"
Joelrassic
But couldn't it be a confession of an unpopular opinion?
thisiswhathappenslarrywhenyoufindastrangerinthealps
No
CareIDoNot
Here in lies the Bear/Puffin dilemma. A catch 22 if you will. A confession can also be an opinion.
wingweaver415
It still reached the FP
OnlyCoolKidsHaveTheBeetus
Wait did it?
OnlyCoolKidsHaveTheBeetus
I am not very good with the memes. I made it a confession cause I was under the impression a large group of the Internet likes the show.
DrWhoTheHellAreYou
Regardless, fuuuuuuuuck did I hate that dumb shit show.
Jenkinsjimbo
Yeah case and point right there
thisiswhathappenslarrywhenyoufindastrangerinthealps
Therefore unpopular
OnlyCoolKidsHaveTheBeetus
Ah, makes sense.

amooseathome
Don't worry...You'd hate the city too
KunFayyaKun
On a scale from Grimm to Portlandia, which show portrays the city best?
amooseathome
Portlandia
Psycho777
TBH it's like living in the robot community from Stepford Wives, only instead of spotlessly clean &1950's themed, it's rainy, muddy, & 1990.
amooseathome
Hahaha thats a perfect description, just add hipsters and organic everything
dirtehscandi
Gawd I hated my time in Portland, the lack of sun in the winter, the unbearable hipsters, poker was the only good part
doucher
Yeah definitely this. Don't ever move here. It sucks.
randomsonglyric
The majority of people there suck
J0765
If Seattle and San Francisco had an illegitimate child.
KebmtheBear
The city is aweful .. please stay out if he pnw you wouldn't like it here .. just big rainy bad place :)
doucher
Terrible terrible place. It sucks here. Stay away
Andilee
It's not terrible, but the traffic is. I really only go to guardian games however when I am there.
GreaterDog
Got a job in Hillsboro when I graduate this spring. Was considering commuting from Vancouver but quickly dropped that plan, it's so bad.
cooldudeguy
I live in Vancouver, and I will agree with your decision to abandon that plan. That commute would make you homicidal.
amooseathome
Traffic and parking. It's a small city with a big city traffic problem
scramblebaby
Yeeees. Portland is awful. Don't come here. Ahem..I mean there. Tell everyone to leave. It's the worst.
IAmTheRealBalakay
Don't fucking come to Colorado either
damnyuoautocorrect
And don't fucking come to Seattle either!
doucher
Yeah I second that. It's a terrible city! Super high crime right. One of the worst in the US. Just don't come here at all.
amooseathome
Shhhhh. Don't let them know....
DoctorTobiasFunkeAnalrapist
No good food or beer either!
kumaclimber
Yeah, Portland is terrible. Especially during the summer.
OnlyCoolKidsHaveTheBeetus
I have actually heard that the city is just as bad.
bratwurst
Being from Texas, my time there earlier this january was wonderful. Folks there seemed to be nicer than where I'm from.
Lumberjackfirefighter
Happened the same, watched a couple of episodes, didn't find it appealing at all.
PerthConall
The show is scarily accurate once you hit certain parts of downtown.
peanutterbutter
everyone here complaining about portland live outside the city, lol. living inside is a lot better than the traffic shitstorm to get in/out
Bwentos
If you dislike Portlandia then yeah you won't like the city much either. Good beer and good food though.
somuchh8
Best food, coffee, and cocktails on the west coast.
somuchh8
And now pot too!!!
chroniclunacy
It's completely true. No one move here.
amooseathome
I live just outside of it. The only reason to go in the city is for the food, presuming you can stand the @ssholes
aznboiwonder
i just came back from Portland can confirm food is delicious especially biscuits and gravy
thebananasarerestless
Ugh agreed. I live in Beaverton and I hate driving downtown will avoid it at all costs
HydroxKittie
Beaverton traffic is just as horrible but with less pedestrians and bikes.
thebananasarerestless
well my biggest issue is I can't parallel park so at least I can usually find parking in beaverton
thebananasarerestless

OnlyCoolKidsHaveTheBeetus
I do love food....
amooseathome
It's scary how fast a paycheck can disappear around here just on all the yummy food
OnlyCoolKidsHaveTheBeetus
I believe it. That's where most of mine goes when I have any left from bills. Lol
Muttmutt
Still not worth it
OnlyCoolKidsHaveTheBeetus
Fair enough. I'll just send someone to bring me food from Portland if I'm ever on the west coast
