Yinz going Dahntahn n'at?

Early followers of this blog will remember my entry shredding our neighbors to the northwest in Cleveland with a couple hilarious videos. Well, I think it's only fair to reciprocate with a yinzer video of our own that made me laugh just as hard as the YouTubes in which Cleveland proudly proclaims that "At least we're not Detroit!" The video below is a take on Petula Clark's classic "Downtown." Anyway, here's a quick tutorial on Pittsburguese. I mean, we should laugh at ourselves and not be jagoffs, n'at.

  1. When I heard this in the car the other week, I was laughing so hard I was crying. People were looking at me more funny that usual.

  3. Great song, and great photo pagination. There's another YouTube that's hilarious. It's a parody on Katy Perry's "Waking up in Vegas" --except with a Pittsburgh twist, of course.

  4. Good stuff. I especially like the "Wilkinsburg, if you dare" part.

  6. And that's what I miss about Pixsburgh's Ethnic Culture and Seattle is just not the same with all its Class n'at..

  7. Plus, our anarchists don't know how to destroy a city quite like the good people of Seattle in 2000. Or maybe Pittsburgh is just more of a police state than Seattle. Not really sure.
