yinzerati

Share definition
Member of Pittsburgh's yinzer elite. Membership requirements include, but aren't limited to forever rejecting Rolling Rock for leaving Latrobe, being able to recite the play-by-play of the Francisco Cabrers's two-run single in the Pirates' 1992 NLCS playoff loss to Atlanta, knowing the #1 Best Seller at Primanti's isn't a sandwich, thinking Kennywood is better than Walt Disney World, thinking Joe Grushecky is better than Springsteen, having worked at National Record Mart at some point in their life, shedding a tear during a reminiscence of Mr. Rogers, going to Monroeville Mall to reenact scenes from DAWN OF THE DEAD on a date.

Honorary members include Roberto Clemente, Mario Lemieux and Bill Cowher, who's membership was revoked in 2009 when he sounded the pre-game warning siren at a Penguin-Canes NHL playoff game.
You ain't no yinzerati if you go to Primanti's and ask for fries on the side.

Aw, man. I made too many pierogies. Call up the yinzerati to help me eat 'em.

Me and the yinzerati are going to the Slovak Club if you want to come.

Intense rage accompanied by retard strength to create superhuman powers. Yinzer rage stems from extreme anger and frustration. It's better not to fuck with someone with yinzer rage, because they will likely kill someone. This term is only relevant to males in Pittsburgh with the yinz accent.
He has yinzer rage.

Dude, he is just raging right now! It has to be yinzer rage.

When Steelers fans refuse to believe that The Pittsburgh Steelers could ever be beaten and the only way they lost is because they were screwed by the referees, Bruce Arians play calling sucked, or Neil O Donnell threw the interceptions on purpose
You: Did you watch the Steeler game last night?

You: Yeah tomorrow on the radio shows their is going to be a Yinzer Uproar
