I like how you came back 6 minutes later to add that in. Like you sat on the original comment for a few minutes, and then...oh, wait! Shirtless photos. BURN! lol

What next? An hour long rant trying to get banned and then a name change?

My heart isn't in it, because frankly, you're not very interesting.

How cute.

Aping barfo's act.

What next? Shirtless photos of your torso?

It is true that my act involves not moshing to 3rd Bass, whatever that is. But my act involves so much more... namely, not moshing to anything at all.

You're the

"- sharing your most personal struggles/illnesses
- posting shirtless photos of yourself
- posting photos of your girlfriend
- telling us all how much money you'll make in 5 years
- begging for approval from male internet posters" guy.

I know it upsets you that you're uneducated, and that you have to carry boxes for a living. I actually do respect that job, though The world needs people to load boxes onto trucks, too, no matter how overpaid they are. I'll be working up near Swan Island over the next near for a project. Maybe I can stop buy and expense a lunch for you and the fellas as my appreciation for your dull, yet necessary, work!

I use UPS on a daily basis, and I should probably take the time to thank the little people who make the packages move from A to B.

Oh shit, after a two day regroup session, PapaG comes out firing on all cylinders. But, your shit's still weak.

Never did I mean to make you feel so insecure when I posted a shirtless picture of myself a couple months after near death. It must be hard to fathom that I don't have a fat wife. My girl actually looks good in a bikini. "She wears daisy dukes, she must have crabs" ~ Classic line from you. Up there with some of your other loser lines.

As for an uneducated shlub like me making more money than you in 5 years?
That sounds like a personal problem that you need to get over. Tough pill to, I know. In the meantime, continue to sulk and be the board piñata.

....and stop making more threads about Jerry Sandusky. Pervert.

Back to the topic at hand.....

I think its possible Tri-met didn't expect the mounting expenses of adding a new rail line by the Rose Garden into next years budget. This is probably why they decided to get rid of the fareless square so the budget would slow down on the increasing debt.

As much as I appreciated the fareless square, I think its time that we pay a little more in fares to pay for the effective transit system.

Here's how some of our ridership is saving money.
After Wednesday's TriMet board vote to cut bus service, ax the Free Rail Zone and hike fares to balance the agency's budget, riders could use some good news.
Well, here's some (if you believe the math of a public-transportation advocacy group):
The American Public Transportation Association on Thursday released its latest "Transit Savings Report" report, showing that the average Portland area commuter who takes the bus or train instead of driving is currently saving $879 a month and $10,546 a year.
Not too shabby. In fact, the Portland metro area landed ninth on the APTA annual transit-savings list, up two spots from 2011.
The national average: $812 this month and $9,743 annually.
The group says the rankings are based on the cost of commuting by public transportation compared to the cost of owning and driving a vehicle, including the June 11 average national gas price and the national unreserved monthly parking rate.

I have no problem with the fare increase, as I posted in this thread before it became dedicated to my occasional Smart Park/BWW pre-game meal, and then ride across the river on the Max.

Whoever changed the thread from TriMet fares to where you park before Blazer games should be banned! They even made the post about them in the second post! :MARIS61:

Re: Fareless Max Zone Gone
That kind of sucks for Blazer games. I always park near Lloyd Center and take the max to the RG.

Ban! Ban!

I park near Lloyd Center too, then walk to the RG. Not a tough walk by any stretch. I'm torn on the whole fareless square thing... on one hand, the only people who used it frequently were transients, so in that respect not having to smell them is ostensibly nice, but on the other hand that means that the only people TriMet can ticket are already broke and homeless, which doesn't do them much good.

I take Tri-Met every day to work (two busses and a max ride from SE to Nike). Even if tickets or monthly passes (which I use) doubled in price, it'd be cheap compared to gas ($200/month), insurance ($100/month), and a car payment ($250/month) for a second car. So I'm not down on them for raising prices.

Anyway... it's a complicated thing.

I should probably criticize what you do, but I'm guessing it works for you, so good for you!

I'm deeply concerned about this new commute issue. Hopefully the extra $1.90 fare won't break the band for you. I hadn't even thought about parking at Lloyd Center, since I assumed they would tow people.

I like to score a little rock at Holladay Park before the game. If you wear a Kemp jersey you can get 2 bags for the price of three.

I used to always park at the movie theater parking lot since it's a Park and Ride but for some reason they were real pricks about it this year. They actual barricade the entrances and patrol during games. Now I park on the street on the south end of the mall.

I was just at the BWW for the Blazer's Lotto party. I had a handful of 6 Free Wings cards from Blazer games so I was passing them out to everyone that showed up to the Blazer's section, lol.
 
my driver drops me off in front of the rose garden. usually i meet some sluts inside during the game though and we just bang at some cheap hotel in the area.

I got a bunch of those at the RG during the NCAA tournament. Literally 60 free wings! I tried to redeem them at Fire on the Mountain, but they refused!

Personally, I'd go for the nice sluts in the cheap hotel, rather than the cheap sluts in the nice hotel.

do people actually get checked when riding max? in all my years living in portland and riding that thing I've never once been asked to show my ticket.

depends on the amount of people at a stop. at Jeld Wen Field they set up cattle guards and had like 10 checkers at a time closer to game time.

I imagine it would be the same around the RG on a game night with no fairless square.

As opposed to those who talk shit about white collar jobs.

Only one faction seems defensive about it, though. Cry much?
