I went to Philly 2 years ago

And i didnt think it was possible to hate a city so much. Rude, ignorant, fat pigs. The only place i’ve ever been with worse drivers was in NYC.

Sorry if anyone on the blog is from Philly, but i really really didnt like your city.

True story:

I was in Philly earlier this year and met up with my parents there for the weekend. We went downtown and did the whole Independence Hall thing. Well, we walked a few blocks to find “real” cheesesteaks.

Now, before we departed on this quest, I informed my mother “Mom, when you order this, just say ‘cheesesteak with’ or ‘cheesesteak without.’ There is no such thing as a ‘Philly Cheesesteak’ around here, and if you want it with just cheese, you gotta say ’without”.

Of course, my mother, being my mother, orders it wrong, and the fat little biatch behind the register yells at her…literally yells and cops an attitude over the way my southern-bell mother ordered a cheesesteak in Philly.

Philadelphians are indeed some of the rudest people I have ever met.

hahah, holy cow whata bitch

thats when you reply with a friend “fuck you”, walk away and find a different place to eat. Then, you bring your food back to the restaurant, spill your drink all over the place, leave your trash, and walk out without telling anybody.

Was it the “with” “without” thing? I live in Philadelphia right now, and I have no idea what that means. You should just order it as clearly as possible, people get all in a tizzy about trying to order it some whack way.

“Cheesesteak with ketchup, fried onions and salt and pepper” is usually what I say, but obviously you dont have to get all that stuff.

If you told your mom to say Cheesesteak with, probably the girl behind the counter would just be like, “with what?”

same with “without”

Haha, I heard a story where this one guy was yelling at his girlfriend to say “wit” instead of “with” and saying they will yell at you and stuff if you say “with” Of course, his girlfriend orders saying “with” and nothing happens.

Also, Center City and South Street etc is in my humble opinion a shitty place to get food. The people there do have bad attitudes.

I just talked to my girlfriend and she said that some places in South Philadelphia you are supposed to order Cheesesteak with, or Cheesesteak without. That is pretty stupid though. You should look up on the internet places to get Cheesesteaks if you ever come back, because the quality of a lot of the places is very poor. Usually, the good places have better service and dont care about stupid stuff like how you order it.

This was at that gyro place in the big supermarket/train station/bus station or whatever the heck it really is a few blocks from the historic district – I can’t remember the name of it though.

The best cheesesteak I ever had was at a little place called “The Hungry Piney” right outside of Ft. Dix/MacGuire AFB in New Jersey…absolutely awesome place!

FTR, Cheeze-whizz is the best thing ever on a cheesesteak!
