The last thing the woman from Northeast Portland probably expected when she got up Tuesday morning was that she would be attacked by a sword-wielding elf.

But that's what happened around 7 a.m. as she drove her red BMW by the intersection of Southeast 7th and Morrison.

A man dressed in chain-mail with a helmet, shield and carrying a sword and staff ran into traffic and started attacking her car.

For future reference, Vorpal .44 beats +1 Longsword.

In Portland, I’d think “high” was redundant.

[OldNewYork]

Agree. Although, this sounds like a Chaotic Evil thing to do.

That one picture says more about liberalism than just about anything else.

I dunno - they let him go suspiciously quickly. If he whipped out a valid High Elf ID I think he has diplomatic immunity. Which means...(looking over shoulder for red BMWs emitting flames)...

I wonder if the perp put on the costume before or after consuming the illegal drugs?

[Notforprophet]

One of the time I wish FR had a Like button. +1 funny.

[Notforprophet]

Perhaps a winsome elf maiden slipped him the LSD in a slice of lembas?

[Notforprophet]

Maybe one of these for ID?

[Slings and Arrows]

Many tanks!

[Billthedrill]

Hooboy. He walks.

I did NOT give you permission to use that photo!!!

[Tax-chick]

the Yutz clan? didn’t they interbreed with the dwarves?

That would explain his face.

[Salamander]

HODOR!

[Pelham]

Not an elf. Definite fairy material.

I’ll bet they love it. To me the show comes off as a friendly ribbing of a city and a culture that its creators are clearly fond of. I’m pretty sure Fred Armison and (the girl whose name I’m blanking on) are big libs.

I suppose they are, but there’s rare instances of tv shows or movies lampooning the lefties new-age lifestyle. The movie “Serial” from 1981 with Martin Mull is the only movie I can remember that makes fun of the whole hippie/leftist culture. If they can laugh at themselves fine. But there aren’t too many fem-nazis with a sense of humor. Their motto is “I Am Offended” or “We Are Offended.”

The clip of the militant bicyclist is a riot.
