Duraxis
Every single member of staff has gauge piercings, sleeve tattoos, and the place is covered in historic portraits

You forgot interior design that promotes noise levels at the same decibels as your lawn mower
voxael
This describes a LOT of the places I eat ...
19879
Man buns and clear frame glasses are a must
jakeosaurus
Wow, you guys sound fun.
Evanrudeplz
Any brewery these days.
UsuallyARabbit
You have to bus your own table. There are 4 different garbage cans, Recycling, Landfill, Compost, and something illegible.

Gold flake and squid ink
BloodyStoopidJohnson
So many tattoos.
jade130
and beards
somnif
I drink out of mason jars, 10$ for a dozen of the things, they're easy to clean, study, can seal them up, they're great.
easyteasy
I feel personally attacked...
IHaveAGuyForEverything
Some of these places have REALLY good food, but the environment and workers make it not worth it.
JustforKicks5350
There’s quite a bit I’ll put up with or ignore for REALLY good food. Be as pretentious as you want in the description so long as it’s yummy.
cwbyboots
Gentrification of an area that used to be a nice area before then current class of people chased them out.
GuardsmanMiku
people: "mental health is a serious issue the gov should tackle!" Also people: "making places look less depressing is bad"
Normalface
Gastro pub
idiosamatik
With a mixologist behind the bar
MachineInterface
Pasta as straw actually sounds like a good idea?
KranjisMcBasketball
That's not a question, that's a statement with a question mark at the end. Get your shit together, man!
G0825
That seemed to escalate rather quickly.
nicetomeetyouimdad
Every place my brother drags us to in Nashville
silentwolf1999
Im just passing through for distillery tours and history.
BananaFarm
I remember when we would go to Nashville for fun...now it’s just a headache
FlatPlutoSociety
This restaurant is located in a diverse neighborhood, but there has never been a single non-white person working front-of-house.
Filanwizard
And it’s in a spot that used to have an affordable family run diner.
albook55
Exactly. It's the same even in Taiwan.
CidColetti
I have those stools by my kitchen counter. Is my house gentrified?
philosoraptor1000
I have the same style of chair around my kitchen table. Was once poor white farm boy. Now middle class. I guess my house is gentrified.
SarcasticComment
Maybe, but your stools are fucking uncomfortable.
DickRogers
Id say, its pretty likely, yes.
DenverCoderIX
There are like 12 of these on my tiny 160k inhabitants Spanish city. I dined at one past Saturday. Burger was dope tho.
rumandbass
You say 160k is tiny?
DenverCoderIX
Yep; we sit on an extremely comfortable 104,52 pop./km² ratio, tho. Our highest populated city one is only barely over 3m.
nonamejanie
I have Edison lights but they actually flicker. I use them in my porch lights at halloween. Lol
LateNightBunnyParty
I have them up year-round cuz I'm a classy ho.
nonamejanie
Hahahha I think they are neat.
AtsaMattaForMe
TezcatlipocaStroker
Oh fuck... I've been there.
atraudes
I’ve been there and continue to go back because it’s tasty as hell. I apologize for nothing
FlyingButtPliers
Is the wife fucking really worth $100? Do they use locally sourced latex free bespoke condoms?
ImKimJongUnAndEverythingIsFine
Bespoke condoms, if anyone doesn’t know what bespoke means, would be custom tailored to your John Thomas. And an amazing business idea. +1
FlyingButtPliers
You're absolutely right and I highly recommend these guys https://www.myonecondoms.com/pages/find-your-fit
ImKimJongUnAndEverythingIsFine
Oh I don’t need condoms, but those are neato bandito
TallgeeseIV
This took quite a turn, I mean $1.75 for guac is just extortion.
unholyfuckness
It's $6 for a small bowl of guac at Cactus. Crazy.
GoldFrieza
sounds normal for a restaurant. But yes, extortion. I never order it
Maclacakop
It’s $7 for 2 avocados here
smallfruit
Avocados have doubled in cost in the last 60 days-ish. Tmyk
ImKimJongUnAndEverythingIsFine
Also it’s never actually guac, it’s lightly smashed avacado paste. They never add anything to it for flavor.
TacticalMoosez
You say “gentrified”; I say “hipster”.
PartlyClauddy
Yuppies?
idiosamatik
nah yoga moms and tech jobbers in polo shirts do a lot of the gentrification now
DickRogers
True. Hipsters were the first wave of Gent. Now theyve succumb to the market forces that allowed them into these nhoods in the first place
SarcasticComment
Hipsters are the first cheap wave, then come the yuppies buying up the neighborhood at 6x the price hipsters found it at.
albook55
Aaaaaand everything suddenly costs 3x the original price.
SenorMacaroni
For every meal they sell, a homeless person gets their wings
TheJudgingCat
What flavor wings? Do they get to pick?
KWJester49
They murder a homeless person every time the sell a meal?
DeadArcadian
for 4.75 you get to do it yourself
SenorMacaroni
Yes!
Trinitii83
Some who works there is wearing suspenders.
lairmd1371
Flannel is big in the midwest. Plus all kinds of hats.
helmsmanl33742
and at least 15 pieces of Flair..
tr3buchet
*everyone who works there is wearing suspenders
daaaBlues
And they all preach "farm to table" while the Sysco truck unloads in the back
PotatoThunder
Bartender definitely has a curled up moustache
drakewarnock
Like...only suspenders? Because I could get on board with that.
RevanthaKottegoda
He's a lumberjack and he's OK He sleeps all night and he works all day
wastedpoptart
And a driver hat that screams “I know every craft beer that’s ever existed”
Schadenfreuda
Or overalls
Ringshadow
I went to a restaurant in Pittsburgh where all the staff had suspenders. I ate bone marrow. It was a weird night.
ThronesWoven
really freaking healthy for you bro
Ringshadow
Perhaps but I couldn't get around the whole steak with the mouth feel of butter thing. It was pleasant though.
Ringshadow
https://www.meatandpotatoespgh.com/ This is the joint, haven't been in years, may have changed since I was.
JLB4est
I've been there! it is super hipster. I went with friends and had to leave early so ordered my meal to go, they forgot to put my order in.
TimmyDans
And a belt.
UnassumingAscotCap
Many suspenders are meant to be worn with a belt. I wear suspenders because I have no ass and a belt doesn’t help
YouL0stTheGame
And sports a hipster beard.
FlatPlutoSociety
Or no beard, but a heavily waxed mustache.
Delta2Almanac
Damnit. You beat me by 6 minutes on this exact comment
bakedemperor
What about the bow tie?
Chrispybobispy
And a man bun
ChubbsIsMyName
With plaid, skinny jeans, and shoes that are either too big for the jeans, or too pointy.
Sephority
Edison lights are nice ding dang it
ElbowDeepInAPoliceState
They're over done
gfedbca
I like the look, but they throw heat like a bastard. We have them in our bathroom
TheBestNamesAreTaken
Buy LED :)
Saxxon92
They are really cool, idgaf
chrishallett83
No, they're fucking stupid.
pandasmakemehappy
This is like being named Kyle, Chad, or Karen or having an inverted bob cut. It's fine, but the internet gets cunty about it
DownvoteAllYouWantImstillRight
I have those too! I feel shitty now.
GuardsmanMiku
aslong as your not a restaurant your fine
Nize426
Don't worry. They're cool.
DemSumBigAssRidges
Fuck that. Don't let the internet dictate things you like or what makes you happy. As long as it ain't murder and such... Do you.
AmHumanNotLizardMan
I wonder if it's possible to make an LED version that still has the glowy strips in the middle... Moody lighting but power efficient.
FlyingButtPliers
Home Depot and Lowes are both full of them. Tons of brands.
DidYouSeeMyUsername
They exist. I have them. Amazon search LED Edison. Filament brand is what I have and love them!
IMakePretzelsFromScratch
I work at Batteries plus bulbs, we got em with 5 year long warranties and 20 year life s0an for about $7 each
sciencebasedlifeform
do you carry personal massager batteries? like super powered ones?
JanaJustinsdottir
Yes, I got a box on Amazon for my balcony.
AirlineGeek
Yep, I have some. GE makes them.
Ninalaroo
I don't think it would have the same warmth as the tungsten
Ninalaroo
But you could probably make a whole heap of money if you could figure it out!
NateintheNorth
If you mean actual temperature, no. They're efficient, that fixes that. If you mean warm in color, that's pretty easy.
drewcrosby
https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B076PGFJDF I put some of these in a fixture in our kitchen. It looks pretty great. Uses < 10% the power.
freckledkink
My cousin's husband's has a patent on them! Plus 6 other types of light bulbs. Electrical engineering degrees do pay off!
Sephority
I'm not sure anyone was arguing that they didn't but yeah
labotomite
I've eaten there, it's in Portland oregon
KevinRPD
It fits what Portland is as a city.
ComeJoinTheMurder
Can confirm
MuffyTheHamburgerSlayer
It was called Central. I got rather drunk there multiple nights while attending OSCon.
beatingoffinfrontofapegasus
I went to one in Reno, nv. The ppl I was with didn’t share my annoyance with the places decor.
Zaddylonglegs
God dammit you beat me to it +1
mcbotulism

NikolaiJakovtheheadoftheKGB

ApolloCread2
Oh and Columbus Ohio
BasilExposition
Reading this right before I hop on my flight to Portland for the first time. Can't wait!
TheDickTater503
I live here. It’s everywhere. If you’re not careful, it’ll be a part of you too.
NotYourAverageTwitchUser
I love the breweries in Portland, and some of the food trucks outside of them. Cascade for sours, and Basecamp Brewing
obviouscoconut
I thought it was Seattle lmao
LuluKazoo
dudedude09
It IS Portland Oregon
InAMellowTone
And Halifax, NS
ChuckNorrisAteMySock
Is it the Deschutes thing? Haven't been to Portland in ages but I remember that place.
toraty
I lived there for 5 years, this describes it perfectly
DukeLaserMaster
Fire on the Mountain off burnside? Sounds about right.
PaulHurley
Can confirm, Portland, OR. Anywhere around Hawthorne. They're fucking everywhere.
dogpuncher1000
Must be a franchise. I've been to the one in Austin
Askarus
Yep, drinking in one right now.

extrakerned
It’s called TILT. Pie shakes are great
dickinthedirt

unwashedsauce
"the dream of the 90s is alive in Portland"
APackOfExcitedGingers
Must be a chain, because I also dined there in San Francisco
JadedDoorman
No, just the origination pointbfor all things trendy, and douche like.
dudeloveall
I know of 3 different locations in the south and east bay this reminds me of. BLVD Burger, Grub, and Nomburger. All real locations
AhhhhComeOn
I really could walk around real quick and find 5 restaurants like this.
JZKillaT68
Mcminigams or whatever in the shit it’s called? I was day drunk there a decade ago, got kicked out for being drunk, so I started running...
JZKillaT68
into random places screaming “are you open on Thursday” at the top of my lungs, and then turn around and run off to the next place....
qazwerd
Lived in Portland. A specific restaurant popped into my head at the first image. The rest was very accurate.
uummmmno
Oh it's definitely Luc Lac
deesiexj
Was it Modern Times? That's what came to mind for me
iTakeQuotesOutOfContext
Was it Southland Whiskey Kitchen?
slowchromehand
Fuck that place.
TobyKweef
“Was he a happy chicken?”
iamwoman1
Chikkintiddy
SexualConsent
Went to a "pizza" place like this when I was in Montreal. Their version of a cheese pizza was dough, tomato sauce, with like 5 blotches 1/2
SexualConsent
of cheese on top, nowhere near enough to have a good ratio of cheese to sauce, or even enough to cover the whole top of the pizza. 2/3
SexualConsent
It wasn't a bad pizza, but definitely they think their shit is better than it actually is
BuckMelanoma
Sounds like a true margherita pizza though
SexualConsent
That does sound vaguely familiar, might be it
youcancallmesusanifitmakesyouhappy
I swear i saw the same place all over Austin
CaptainFlow
I've definitely eaten at this place in Austin
FlatPlutoSociety
It's not IN Portland. It IS Portland.
wanjeonhanwalwal
No shit! :)
ithoughtitwasaboogerbutitsnot
What a dump of a city
EzekielsRage
Wrong it's Austin Tx
zeroisnothing
Justine's is fucking delicious though
EzekielsRage
I'd kill for some of their steak ta tar
zeroisnothing
I've been to Austin about eight times and I always have to make my way over there. Have yet to have anything less than awesome.
TobyKweef
Austin is just PDX’s little, more retarded brother.
Sixtomidnight3
From someone who was born and raised in Portland and has been to Austin like 5 times, you're absolutely right. Portland > Austin
EzekielsRage
You wanna have a douche off bra?

OrC23
In 99, Austin and Seattle were sister cities. We even had a short lived NXNW.
WhatsYourStoryHomie
Nxnw?
OrC23
North by Northwest. It was comparable to SxSW in the 90's until corporations ate it up. (IE, local bands celebrating.)
Xedi22
I’d much rather live in Seattle than Austin... (coming from a Houstonian) ...although I’d go for Austin over Portland. :)
OrC23
Having lived in both and being from Seattle, I pick Seattle too.
