A dirty city with five days of nice weather a year. The other 360 (or 361, depending), it's either too cold, too hot, or rainy to do anything. Too big and to disconnected to be worthwhile; the real-life incarnation of urban sprawl. Only decent thing is the cheesesteaks.

The original capital of the US and birthplace of the country we know today. Its a Greek word meaning " brotherly love" hense " the city of brotherly love". The people who live here are mostly known for our incredible pride for our city and our inability to keep our opinions to ourselves. Especially if you are talking bad about the city in anyway you can be sure the city is going to talk back. On the other hand if you show your love for Philly, you will have the entire city behind you.

I don't know if The Badland is exactly 'north philly' but it is fucked up there. Whenever i come to philly i take the blue line from downtown to the somerset stop and cross the stree on to Indiana. All around there to Broad & Alleghenyy and back i go looking for stampers and the best on the east coast they are.

Pittsburgh's bitch. Seriously, who really cares about Philadelphia? It's a crummy cesspool on the edge on New Jersey. Nothing against New Jersey, but the proximity of Philadelphia to that state just drags it the hell down.

An awesome movie with Tom Hanks and Denzel Washington. About a homosexual man who is an attorney and gets AIDS. Then, he decides to sue the law firm he works for because they discriminate against him by firing him. It is a tear-jerker and addresses homophobia, love, the legal system, and justice.
Guy 1: That movie Philadelphia was really touching and changed my perspective on AIDS patients.
