Portland Starter Pack EERILY hits the nail on the head

May 22, 2023 by No Comments

Today we stumbled across this starter pack that says it all. For those unaware of the concept, a starter pack is when a number of images and words are put together that sum something up perfectly. In this case, the starter pack in question is based on Portland, Oregon. Don’t believe us? Check the image below and make your own mind up.

Firstly, it wouldn’t be Portland without an image of Voodoo Doughnuts (pictured on the bottom of the starter pack). It also has sentences such as ‘Racist, but doesn’t admit it’, and ‘We just moved from California, it’s so funky and alternative here!!!’ – The less we say on these cliches the better!

It’s also filled with rainy weather cliches, faux spirituality, big homes, and alternative people. Arguably, all it’s missing is a reference to the current homeless population and it would be a full house. Speaking on the meme, social media users wrote, “Grew up in Portland. I feel like this is more accurate than 90% of other starter packs” and “I grew up in Pendleton, and I used to go over to Portland a lot, although the last time was in 2005. It was virtually nothing like this back then. Most people didn’t even consider it to be a real city.”

So there we have it. If this Portland starter pack missed anything – feel free to add your thoughts and opinions in the comments.
