What I love about this show is the level of obsession with the details of everyday life conversations, that we engage in without thinking. This is some genius comedy !

[@EmeraldLavigne]

Yeah, people ask each other if they read shit Fuckin **C O M E D Y ! ! !**

[@EmeraldLavigne]

🙄 Gimme a fuckin break - how did this show ever get past the pilot?

[@rozodru4790]

@@EmeraldLavigne because when it debuted 12 years ago it was extremely relevant for the times when it was the "hipster era". If you lived somewhere like Portland or Williamsburg or Toronto this show would hit dangerously close to home. Trust me, I used to be a part of that "scene" in my late 20s and my friends were all like this so it was very funny to see this show poke fun at us. Ironic humor was huge at the time.

[@psychotripnerdstuff]

Portlandia is a live action cartoon. And I love it.

[@humanonearth1]

I love this sketch, it really epitomizes the sort of competitive fake intellectualism that is a part of life today.

[@bbaeagles303]

I can relate to this so much. I swear, all my friends do this, not only with books, but all forms of media (e.g. movies, tv shows, video games).

This may sound lazy to the judgemental. (With a name like pointlessfailure you probably are.) My failure had a point. It changed my thinking. It was an experiment so the result could not have been deliberate. On "That which they loved resulted in their demise," it does make me wonder what you are talking about. It could be many things.

[@avidadolares]

This feels like a Norm MacDonald joke where the long set up is really where the comedy is with a short simple punchline to end it.

[@Londonfogey]

I really hope this series was popular in the US. Sadly in my experience, comedies which poke fun at hipsters or the liberal intelligentsia don't tend to be that popular ...

[@satori-in-life]

Londonfogey Its relatively popular in the US for not having a large budget or being heavily marketed.

[@manakin5]

As one of those said liberals, I think Portlandia is hilarious. Every one of my friends who I've talked about it to loves it also. Maybe the shows in your experience are just lame.

[@Londonfogey]

manakin5 Maybe...I think often though it's because most people - eg in the 'flyover states' of the USA and what we call 'Middle England' here in the UK don't meet enough hipsters to understand the jokes! We had a very funny series in England called 'Nathan Barley' which made fun of London hipsters but it wasn't popular.
