If you're unfamiliar with the show Portlandia, I'm sorry for you, but let me explain the premise:

Portlandia was a 2010's sketch comedy show about the city of Portland which poked fun, in a friendly way, at the city for being woke, wacky, and weird.

The scene escalates in hilarity from there:

'I accept that you are a man. I accept that you have a p*nis. That doesn't mean it's going to stay that way.'

Man, they really nailed this one.

How has our country become weirder than a parody of Portland from 13 years ago? 😭
