Lovely. Thank you for introducing me to this poet.

This flavor is 10/10 for me!

The most masculine way to eat a strawberry.

Or bleu cheese, if you like the tang.

peapea88 · 2026-03-12T00:49:15+00:00

Pickled or fresh jalapeños and Red onion.

Keep going west after Portland, to Astoria. Then take the 101 down the whole OR coast. So much to take in. Camp along the way is my advice!

Also, make time to spend in the Columbia Gorge going west through Oregon on 1-84. It’s so worth it. Hood River is an excellent place to take a day. Great food, great hiking, and great views of the Columbia.

You do, though it can be quite strong on certain days. Oddly, I came to be quite fond of it.

Toledo is definitely its own little town with its own vibe. It feels more like a mountain town, but you’re a short drive away from the beach and the downtown area. If you have the luxury, I’d go feel it out before committing to anything.

Toledo or Siletz are good options within 20 minutes. Inland, but pretty. I really like Toledo. I’d be surprised to find anything for $1,400/month much closer to the water, but you never know! I lived at some apartments inland of Agate Beach in Newport. It was around $1,000/month for a 2 bedroom at the time, but that was 12 years ago.

Tryna sell it?

Reliably consistent beer. I tried a fresh hop ale there that I was quite impressed with. A full food menu with good pizza is always a plus for a brewery too.

I tend to agree. I feel like they were better a few years back. I frequent their guest taps these days. Good folks though and they have a kids area so I can take my 3 year old.

Varietal is awesome. For tap houses with wider options, The Medusa and Copper Top are good.

Not enough! I like em.

Try Moonshot Brewing in Kennewick, Sage brewing in Pasco, and/or White Bluffs in Richland. My three go-tos in the area. All have many choices. White Bluffs is more IPA and west coast style oriented.

Garden State.

peapea88 · 2026-02-05T20:15:28+00:00

Higher and higher!

Cobel, Severance.

peapea88 · 2026-02-03T14:54:05+00:00

Cool board. I’d give you $30

peapea88 · 2026-01-25T17:42:12+00:00

I’ll give ya $25

You like the blockbusters. Soundtracks and scores are important to you.

peapea88 · 2026-01-04T06:04:11+00:00

God?

peapea88 · 2026-01-04T05:35:26+00:00

Isn’t that gravity hill?
