Hands down this is Portlandia's best skit, in my opinion. Even the facial expressions from all 3 actors are dead-on.

When you use male specific terms like “actors” whole not also including actresses seriously feels like you’re pointing a penis in my face.
"I've accepted it now. I accept you're a man. I accept that you have a penis. That doesn't mean it's gonna stay that way."
I think so too. It's brilliant.

@@lukedixon2938 what would be disappointing?
This has got to be in the top 3 skits from Portlandia.
I lived in Fairfax CA (Marin) for 8 years. Used to call it Fairfaxia. Every skit on Portlandia would transfer nicely.
As someone who's been to both, I feel you. It's tru.
Want to meet at Good Earth for some kambucha? We can talk new age gibberish and chew our words.
I said the same when I lived in Richmond. Most artsy hipster cities in the US are represented by Portoandia
I don't know how Fred Armisen doesn't constantly loose his shit on himself when he's doing these roles. Just looking at him is hilarious.
10 yrs later and these are almost sacred ideas.
To mock them is forbidden by many.
Publicly question it and you might find yourself shouted down.
And it is STILL my favorite skit of all time. After all the lunacy, these characters still kill me.
This was so far ahead of its time
"Even a woman can't have a mustache that thick", ...
What can one say about this skit. It holds a mirror up to the world.
always new information with you. LOL
Always some new spin on it
Back in the day this was considered extremely over the top and ridiculous. Now Portland is just... like this.
That is your father talking...that is your dissss....gusting father!
This has gone from being a comedy to a documentary.
💯
I would not leave a baby with those two......😅🤣😂
It’s the calm hostility that kills me
"I probably wont this late in the game"
"I kept it fuzzy"
"It's always something new with you, some new information!"

11 years ago I thought this was over the top
The music is so ridiculously funny
I’ve never watched this show but this is sooooooo spot on. I live in Austin, TX and this could be any store on S. Congress.

R u ok?
Was that a skit?
Oh my goodness!! I have never seen this before but it is brilliant!!
This scene has never been more relevant than right now 2022.
My thoughts exactly!
“Always some new information with you. Always some new SPIN on it.” How does Fred Armison make the most mundane of lines hilarious 😂😂
The disturbing thing is that this is no longer a joke. This is actually a documentary on Portland.
Lol you’re right. I wish it was still a joke. It’s crazy
Just a lot more violent in real life.
Yea, I can't believe how horribly real this is now.
LOL
And Austin and San Francisco and any neighborhood in New York or Chicago with a cupcake store… the disease is spreading 😆
The ability to make a scene genuinely intense without a single person even speaking at a normal volume, let alone yelling, is great writing.
So wild to think that liberals were willing and able to make fun of this stuff barely a decade ago.
Right lol
lol, "it's sort of unsweetened maple syrup."
This is brilliant on so many levels.
I mean….im glad her son seems really well adjusted and a good father at least.
Amen! Maybe his dis******ing father had some good sense.

She works at the Women and Women First store and doesn't know what a woman looks like. Hilarious.
About the Christmas stockings “I used to wear those as shoes” LOL
"I definitely kept it fuzzy as to what gender you are" Fred is no doubt a time traveler.
“Yes , we’ll watch the baby” the most begrudging yes after raking him through the coals 😂
