$ % & # !!!!

Ok, Portland lost its shit over these tights. Seriously. People came up to me from all corners asking if I had tattoos on my legs.

Come on Portland, are we not known for our unique style? Every day I see people with face tattoos, plushy costumes, and dreadlocks down to their knees....and you're gonna lose you shit over some tights?
