I love how you defend Portland: Sure, it's a dumpster fire but the further away you are from the center, the better off you are! Yeah...no thanks. I like to live places where I can go downtown.

@danielfox3003 Two strikes in one comment. That's impressive! Care to try for a third?

@danielfox3003 You just did exactly what Briggs did: Admitted that the place sucks now but then tried to justify it. 'Other cities suck, too' is not the strong defense you think it is. Nobody said they don't. However, there was a time when I would have chosen Portland over those other cities. Not any more. That really says all that needs to be said. Portland is just another in a long list of bad cities, now. It didn't used to be, by your own implication.

@danielfox3003 Nope, not into Shapiro either. There's strike three! Again, you elude to how bad it is by saying that you'd rather live in Portland than any other big city. We've already covered the fact that big cities are, more or less, just horrible. The curve you're grading on is hilarious! You're just saying that Portland is the dumpster fire you prefer over the others. I've got news for you; there's a great, big Country out there. You don't actually have to choose to live in a dumpster fire. Also, I wasn't quoting you, I was paraphrasing. You don't use quotation marks when paraphrasing. It is, however, perfectly acceptable to use the apostrophe in place of quotations when doing so. I shouldn't have to explain that but then, you're the kind of guy who uses "too" at the end of "You don't have too" (see, I quoted you there, so it was appropriate to use quotation marks). Given that fact, I can understand how alternative uses for common punctuation might be beyond you.
