We're not sure how to react to people riding around on Tri-Met in their underwear. It's fun when clean-cut hipsters do it as a goof on a Sunday, but surely you don't want to encourage this sort of thing for all of the mass transit customers, 24-7-365.
Next thing you know, this guy will be shaving people's legs.

Guess we really do have to copy everything done in New York. The Times had an article on a group that does this and other funny stuff a few weeks ago.
Thinking outside the box isn't something done in this neck of the woods.

Age changes your perspective. At 25, I would have found this emblematic of the countercultural thread woven into Portland's social fabric. At 44, however, my first and only reaction is to say "WTF?"

And I'm okay with pretty ladies showing off their pretty panties. If you're okay with showing them, I'm okay with looking at them.
Still not enough to make me want to ride mass transit though.
