Eh, in terms of poo poo to do, probably the cities are equal. I really liked visiting Pittsburgh when I was there for the record.

I've been here 18 years and I still find new poo poo to do every day.

I guess Nashville has music about loving your sister and an arena named after tires?

this implies there is a correlation between population and the number (and likely quality) of parties and poo poo

I live in a city that is bigger than both, so I don't think you prove what you think you prove, hth

I like to ride the trails around here and I got about 18 miles out on the Montour trail before I saw literal tin shacks with confederate flags on them. I think that's where he lives.

Haha, 18 miles is like loving Bethel Park. loving yuppie central my dude. It's between Lebo and Upper Saint Clair. They weren't tin shacks, they were fuckindg lannd rovers and they weren't conferate flags, they were Trump Pence signs

Nah, Nashville is a great city. It's just unfortunate they created a hockey team that decided to be amazingly good at home, horrendously bad on the road, and then decide to finish as team #16 so they had no home ice advantage whatsoever.

le does parties and festivals better, population size has nothing to do with it
Yeah I wish Pittsburgh could get better festivals and conventions, but the city is a lovecraftian headache to drive through so I can see why people balk at not coming here.

Took my brother to Fuel and Fuddle for the first time and it was nice, burger was charred a bit but nothing ketchup could solve. Need to take him somewhere new in Oakland this weekend, eh gently caress it we'll probably go to the O like usual.

I went 18 miles out from Coraopolis at the Ohio, that's Washington County out past McDonald. Redneck hell.

Secondly, Bethel Park is blue collar redneck as gently caress. There was a controversy last year over a visiting mostly black football team being called racist slurs.

Median household income in Bethel Park is below the national median.

Actually it's just an insufferably hot swamp full of demonstrably horrendous driving and a lack of vision and ambition

And is also the only major city in Texas without any form of pro ice hockey, even San Antonio has a fuckin team lol gj houston

Oh poo poo, yeah, you out near Houston and poo poo.

Also, Bethel Parks median income is severely hosed up because it borders Library which is opiod hell. Speaking of opioid hell, Corapolis.

Never mind all this poo poo, Pittsburgh opioid hell no matter where you go. gently caress yeah rust belt.

Should invite you to some of the parties I've been too, though I live in the suburbs so technically not Pittsburgh; I haven't laughed harder than watching my dad and his best friend have a drunken wrestling fight on the 4th of July. That or the time when my Uncle Buck got really drunk while we and my dad's friends were playing pool volleyball and he was talking poo poo to everyone, but that was in Virginia.

My favorite thing about Houston is seeing awesome music acts go on tour and when they release their schedule they loop around Houston and go to Dallas, Austin and San Antonio, I feel so musically owned

The people in this place talk so much poo poo about how they want to be seen as a "world class city" and they can barely run festivals without them being rained out or the organizers making GBS threads their pants and the public transportation is non existent and people legit try to defend the urban sprawl by saying it "grew organically" and so it's not fair to compare it to the Northeast or the west coast :qq:

Way off topic though, I'm just bitter about losing the Aeros and I'm getting interviews for Philly area jobs so I'm gone soon haha

I live in Beechview in the city and opioids aren't a problem in the city at all. When someone gets picked up for nodding out and crashing it's always some Fayette County trash.

Because you really can't get to much of Pittsburgh without driving. It's pretty bad.

Whereas Philly has great public transit, or at least it theoretically would if all its employees weren't on strike 358 days a year
