My sister and brother in law recently left Pittsburgh. He's a doctor the the insurance was just sky high so they left. I can't wait to see their reaction to this news about Pittsburgh.
I currently live in Pittsburgh. I was born and raised here. I refer to it as a polished turd. It looks all pretty now, but the inner operations of the city and surrounding towns make cancer and AIDS victims envious. It’s diseased.
The only thing I left that I love here (aside from friends and family) are the Pittsburgh Pirates....yes, a team that has suffered through 15 years of losing seasons is my only material love. The Steelers stole 2 of their 5 Super Bowls via steroids (yes, Dallas would have owned them)...the third stolen Super Bowl was mainly due to “The Jerome Bettis Story” (TM) ...Sorry Seattle.... and our rivers make yunzer puke look clean.
We lose 5% of our population every year....those are the smart ones! I’d go so far as advising people to move to Detroit before Pittsburgh! Hell, move to Zimbabwe before Pittsburgh!
If you are planning to retire, please, avoid Pittsburgh at all costs. I assure you that your remaining years will be miserable here. You’re better off retiring in a cess pool or Cleveland. This town is West Virginia in denial and hates new people. It is mainly due to inbreeding. This city is THE definition of living dead (ironically, Night of the Living Dead was filmed about 25 miles north in Elwood City). You have been warned.
Whoever made this list needs a Rose Kennedy lobotomy. Putting Pittsburgh on a list of places to retire demonstrates that one should not breathe.
That aside, Let’s Go Bucs!!!!! 2008! This is the year we get 69 wins!!!!! :)
(sigh)
PS I will soon be living in Texas....Texas is proof that there is a God :) :) !!!! No, I will not be bringing northern liberalism either :)!
They’re talking retirees, not working stiffs...
