My amazing pirate analogy wasn't really supposed to be about drug addiction or addicts though, I probably hosed that up pretty hard. It's more that we broadcasted ourselves as being a beacon for the scummiest street people in the country, most of them probably not even addicts, and I'll stand by that poo poo all day. Not sure if the bussing thing happened here.

It's like Nelson being made to walk the streets with his pants down getting laughed at and condiments squirted on him, going 'haha. rent free'

I liked when Bender compared Eugene Oregon to Bumbase Alpha on Futurama.

Mr. Fix It posted:Never forget that The Simpsons creator Matt Goering is from Portland, Oregon. In the city's past it was rumored that actual Shanghai tunnels were used to kidnap drunks, who were then forced into labor on ships heading to Asia. And in the 80's President George H.W. Bush called the city "Little Beirut" due to the sheer number of vitriolic protesters. Then 2020 happened & the city was labeled an "Anarchist Jurisdiction." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__HBBf_eDLM I love this city.

Android Apocalypse posted:Never forget that The Simpsons creator Matt Goering is from Portland, Oregon. In the city's past it was rumored that actual Shanghai tunnels were used to kidnap drunks, who were then forced into labor on ships heading to Asia. My friend used to work in a pub that had a tunnel that ran about 50 yards to a corner of a shed inside the old West India Docks in London, and nobody's quite sure what it was for. Smuggling seems like the most obvious thing but the shed it ran to was a) on the export dock and people would probably have noticed contraband - at least contraband big enough to be worth digging a tunnel for - being moved all the way over to the export dock, and b) all the high-value (and high-tax) cargo got unloaded in a completely different set of docks almost 2 miles upstream. Also smuggling stuff into London was an absolute piece of piss anyway - it's almost 50 miles from the sea and there were loads of lightermen willing to offload stuff surreptitiously on the estuary and land it at Barking or Woolwich, safely away from the Revenue. It was probably actually just used to go steal stuff from the export docks - the docks in London, but particularly the West India Docks, were almost always used for importation of unfinished goods but the export of finished ones, and it makes more sense to steal the gin on the way out than the grain on the way in. What was particularly fun is that literally everyone who'd grown up in the area knew about the tunnel in the cellar of the Blacksmith's Arms... apart from the people who bought it to turn it into a restaurant and the developers of a skyscraper across the road, who were both rather surprised when the latter dug into and collapsed the tunnel, blowing out a wall in the kitchen of the restaurant.

literally just now noticed that THRILLHO and MILHOUSE are the same length, meaning that Milhouse COULD have just fit his entire name, but felt that replacing the beginning with "thrill" was more important to him I'm kinda dumb I guess
