Philadelphia’s water (most of the Northeast honestly) has really hard water and as a result the bread made in Philly is harder and crustier. When people get all excited about Philly Cheesesteaks, whether they know it or not, they’re really enjoying the crispy chewy longrolls.

Seriously if you are used to fresh bread in Philly, bread anywhere else is loving bullshit. I’ve been in South Carolina for almost 3 years and the only place in town id eat a cheesesteak is the place that imports frozen rolls from Philly (this is a thing, philly exports its bread to steal shops all over the country to people who moved from Philly to start restaurants and immediately realized how much bullshit bread is anywhere else)

Alright, I kind of miss Philthy, but there's no way I could live there without being a coked out, drunk, pussy chasing line cook with no future outside of those things.

Here in Ohio I own a house, have a beautiful child, and a couple motorcycles that sometimes work right. And now we are talking about getting a better house with a better detached garage!

Cocaine and pussy still tempt me a lot though

One time, I was smoking a hand rolled in Suburban station waiting for the train back to where I lived in North Philly, then two cops came down the steps right next to me and I did a super slick drop of that cig into the trash can next to me. Yea I got thrown up against the wall and searched illegally. Nothing came of it though.

Another time I was in South and stopped to take a piss, two cop cars rolled up and threw me against the wall again and accused me of being a graffitist because I had a backpack. Had to go to court for public urination citation, it was only a little embarrassing.

Philly is the city you grew up in and keep moving back to over and over until you turn 30 and realize it is dog poo poo and the day after you move out they find a body on fire a block from where you were living. gently caress Philadelphia. The only city that is worse is Chicago.

I go to Philly a lot for work so I have opinions:

- The pizza is poo poo
- Scrapple is poo poo
- Cheese steaks are poo poo
- Wooder is not a word, water is
- Locals know good dirty jokes
- I had a great meal at Tequilas recently with a tequila tasting and it was awesome
- History is cool

I moved to Southern California four years ago. When I go back to visit my family, I bring an empty suitcase for rolls and pretzels. No one understands everything is just variations on Wonderbread outside of the Philly area.

I love Philadelphia, one day I was riding my bike home in the middle of the day and some guy in his car swerved into me going around someone double parked. He got out and the first thing he said to me was “can you believe how this jackass is parked”. I couldn’t and I’m glad I didn’t die.

South Philly is best Philly.

Hi I’m from Montco and lived in Roxburra before leaving the state. My favorite cheesesteak is Chubby’s on Henry Ave and I sometimes put mayo on them along with lettuce and tomato. No whiz though, only provolone. The best meal I have ever had in my entire life was at Zahav in Society Hill.

All of my experiences are related to food because I’m a fat person. Go birds.

I'm usually nothing but a Philly booster but today we became the first major US city to ban cashless stores and I think that was a bad idea.

I think cashless stores are stupid as hell but why not allow them as long as they're up front about it.

Look I can’t really dig deep into the societal issues at play but please trust my medium sized brain and my many years as a social worker when I tell you that cashless stores are low key racist and make it harder for undocumented people to just live their lives.
