    Butler butts aren't yinzers, leggie. They live 35 miles away.

    You know Legions stuck on you, for him to learn such a term. I came here wondering what a Yinzer is, so he has obviously taken time, and studied you thoroughly. I think he might have a troll crush on you.

    Not too likely, Jade. He's a machine and not programmed that way.

    IF CHRISTIECRITE HAD A SON


    Pittsburgh Police made two arrests in connection to a shooting in Larimer that resulted in two shots being fired at a woman, with one bullet hitting her house.

    Police say the two men arrested were part of a group of five that intimidated the woman. The shooter remains at large.

    Heirahkies Moore-Smith, 20, of Larimer, has been charged with intimidation of witnesses or victims, terroristic threats, and other charges.

    Wiki says they are Yinzers.

    Western Pennsylvania English, known more narrowly as Pittsburgh English or popularly as Pittsburghese, is a dialect of American English native primarily to the western half of Pennsylvania, centered on the city of Pittsburgh. Commonly associated with the white working class of Pittsburgh, users of the dialect are colloquially known as "Yinzers".
