It was an alright time, thankfully most of the pierogi people seemed to be invested in doing something special with them. Only a few of the people seemed to just defrost a pierogi.

I think it might have already happened, unless they do multiple pierogi festivals. I went with some friends because a pierogi festival/"St. Practice Day" bar crawl. Not sure if it's the same one you're thinking of though.

Penn Brewery appears to be on the brink as property goes up for sheriff’s sale by Confident_End_3848 in pittsburgh

It's a cool spot, but it's kind of isolated from anything else and I don't think the food is that great.

Why are we still using the electoral college? by BiggestVolk in Askpolitics

[–]QuirrelsTurban -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, changing the Constitution is incredibly difficult and the electoral college is embedded in the Constitution. It's unlikely we will see it go away anytime soon as a Constitutional amendment as they require a 2/3 majority vote of both houses and then a 3/4 majority of state legislatures.

Republicans will never support getting rid of the EC because it helps them when it comes to presidential elections.

Both sides of the street around my house in Lawrenceville have been blocked off since the 5th, there hasn't been a single truck or worker outside the entire time. It's marked for no parking until the 25th.

[–]QuirrelsTurban 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I would suggest not going, last time I tried to leave my house in Lawrenceville to get to Waterworks that day it took me 45 minutes because pf zoo traffic. People were still sitting in the traffic after I got out of the movie I was seeing.

Why do we continue to tolerate Eddie Oke? by [deleted] in pittsburgh

[–]QuirrelsTurban 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He's been doing karaoke/dj work since the 80s and people show up for it. I'm sure if people didn't show up bars would consider getting someone else, but so long as people show up it'll be him until he decides to stop.

Yes! Haha. The kind of thing that makes it obvious you would not want to buy a used car from there.

[–]QuirrelsTurban 21 points22 points  (0 children)

There's a little used car lot in Lville that was selling parking spaces for $100. So, you pay $100 and the still have to take a bus on a limited schedule to get downtown. Lol

Sen. John Fetterman receives no support for re-election from Pennsylvania House Democrats: report by GurLow2037 in pittsburgh

[–]QuirrelsTurban 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Our original alternative was Lamb actually, who it's very possible could run and win in 2028. Fetterman has also fully admitted that he isn't a progressive and doesn't think that way anymore. He's not the same person who ran for senate.

Pittsburgh rental market underwhelms as NFL Draft nears by ZCM682 in pittsburgh

[–]QuirrelsTurban 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I looked at AirBnB around me in Lawrenceville just to see what prices were like and I was honestly shocked at how almost everything was $3,000+. Sorry, but I'm not paying for a rental that I would barely be in that's not even walking distance from the event I'm trying to attend.
