Indeed. They just got a streetcar and everything.

Well color me enlightened. Seriously, though. I like Cleveland. It's a great town. I'm happy for their NBA Championship and everything. But its well past its prime. There's a reason it and Cincinnati have essentially been, at best, treading water for the last thirty years while Columbus has boomed.

Fair enough. But as counterpoint I would like to remind you that it was Presidents of The United States of America who made that claim. Cleveland's lucky they could take time from their busy peach eating schedule to record it.

If Harrisburg were bigger & had a better economy & cultural life than Pittsburgh & Philadelphia that would be an apt anaology.

Awwww… Topsy.

That's exactly what you mealy-mouthed danishes always say.

Thankfully people are re-purposing malfunctioning ones to reenact episodes of Full House

Dumb, old, uncool, part-Inuit, bisexual, 51-year-old Lutz.

It's almost like people shouldn't care how other consenting adults live their lives.

Can we all just agree that nit-picking anyone's pronunciation of anything is a dick move? Languages are living, breathing things, folks. Let them live & breathe.

Yeah.

Wow. I had no idea. Though I'm pretty sure now "Ashtabula crank" just means shitty meth.

Yeah. I mean the Steubenville/Weirton area is about 100K people. That's not exactly tiny.

Oh yeah. I spent a little bit of time in Steubenville near there.

Which one?! I'm from Ashtabula which is bigger than Copley but at least an hour drive in any direction from a real city. (And by "real" I'm being generous and including Youngstown and Erie, PA.) But I spent three years travelling all over Ohio for work so I've likely been there.
