LOL!

Proof that just because it is on the the internet doesn't mean it is true.

What a joke.

Ha! This is hilarious. I'm no fan of any of our suburbs, but this is definitely done in jest. The one about seven fields though made me choke-laugh. There's some good spots out there in the burbs, I just like mine to be bipedally convenient

LOL. what a douche-chill inducing "article".

Written by Julianna Bagwell, who seems to be quite important to herself. I'm gonna go ahead and discount a lot of what somebody that describes themselves as a "foodie extraordinaire" has to say.

It was very tongue-in-cheek, but not well written. There is a way to write stuff like this with humor and an undercurrent of truth, which makes for good satire. This article was not that.

This is about as funny as the Pittsburgh Dad, which of course means that it is not funny at all. Also, shout out to the author for working in a "joke" about the 2009 mass shooting at the LA Fitness in Collier Township -- any time you get an opportunity to make a "joke" at the expense of innocent dead people killed by gun violence, you take it and run with it.

"Dormont

With its quaint shops, tacky bars, aging bachelors, and happy families, Dormont doesn't quite know what it's trying to be."

Which is what I love about it.
