The Dream of the Nineties is Alive in Portland

Sample dialogue:

“Remember when people were content to be unambitious, sleep till eleven, just hang out with their friends? You had no occupation whatsoever, maybe working a couple of hours a week at a coffee shop?”

“Right…I thought that died out a long time ago.”

“Not in Portland! Portland is a city where young people go to retire.

“I gave up clowning years ago.”

“In Portland, you don’t have to.”

I’ve been there, and everything in this video, a promo for a new IFC series called Portlandia, is true. Everything.
