Portland, Oregon AKA Home of the Hipsters

So when my house was looking for a new room mate in December we got this reply to our ad. I thought I'd share the hilarity of the essence of Portland hipster..

Hey there! So my name is Ben, I'm interested in the place. I live in SW currently and want to move to the East side for many reasons, especially that most of the people I know and shops I visit are there. I work in Oldtown and at PSU, most of what I do is photography related math problems. Commuting is by bicycle only, and bicycle repair is by me only, and I love it that way (despite distance!). I recently purchased a big scooter for out of town trips. I'm very into ceramics, knitting, sewing, fixing things, photography, cold weather, and glaciated volcanoes (hence the scooter, there's just one glaciated volcanoe within bicycling distance). I cook for myself and want to learn new things in that arena. I'm lively but quiet about it, given a choice I'd rather play capture the flag in a park instead of drink beer. Or, both at the same time! Personally not so much into TV, sensationalism, consumerism, waste. Looking for a nice home where people share laughs and meals and other fun things, not on a schedule but rather just... you know... human.
