The Whore Of Portland

I understand why successful people often don't go back to their hometowns.

It's because they are hated for their talents, fame, and success by the folks left behind to suffer and live out their lives in anonymity and agony.

That's certainly the way it is here in Maine for all the people who've made it out.

No one moves to Maine, they only move from Maine. And that builds on itself over years and generations.

Did you know that Wayne Gretzky was despised by the "good" folks in Brantford, Ontario? You do all know that LeBron is hated by northeast Ohio, but do you know why? It's because he made it out. Same thing with Larry Bird in French Lick. Same thing with just about every success story in American history. Look it up.

I can't wait to get the fuck out of this dump. Wouldn't you?

just kiddin'
