And how much time have you spent in Pittsburgh?

Well okay, but it was in response to a comment that had "I" in it five times. I'm just trying to figure out what you want out of this, other than something to make yourself feel better about life in a New Jersey suburb.

It's like a 12th grader bragging that he can beat up some kid in the 9th grade, yet he's scared to death of the other kids in 12th grade. Go to a Boston forum, and post that Philly is better than Boston. You'll then have the fight you're looking for.

Yes, but...I think wherever he goes, the answer will be "sorry dude, we just don't really care about Philadelphia, but we're sort of amused that you're trying to make this a thing." Still your point about 12th grade sounds about right -- why would he pick on Pgh, except that we're a little smaller and have a better football team?

This may be the best thread on the Pittsburgh forum ever. My favorite part is that the OP actually lives in South Jersey, an hour outside of Philly! Classic.

I've visited the city multiple times in my life. Much longer than just a short break between train schedules.

I've done threads over the past years comparing Philly to other cities. For this particular thread I chose the city of Pittsburgh. Get over it.

Why does that even matter? Some of the posters here on the Pittsburgh sub-forum live in the surrounding suburbs. I've already stated that I was born and raised in Philly. Currently I am living in South Jersey but so what!

I actually liked this thread quite a bit:
Pittsburgh Friendliness: Hoax!

Don't you think if you're going to "do a post comparing Philadelphia..." you'd be marginally more interesting if you add something rather than recycling predictable clickbait? I'm starting to come around to Kat's anti TopTenList bias. They're kinda boring. There's more to the city than police brutality and losing sports teams. Try and find it. Be interesting.
