Little Italy

A part of a city that contains many Italian-Americans and retains a lot of Italian culture with it's restaurants and gift shops. The most famous Little Italy is the one in Manhattan, although the amount of Italian-Americans living there has greatly diminished due to the growth of Chinatown in the past years. Other Little Italy's in New York include Bensonhurst, and Arthur Ave. in The Bronx. Other cities with a Little Italy include Baltimore, Cleveland, Chicago and San Diego, and many more in other countries. Some of the best Italian Festivals are held in Little Italy's such as La Festa di San Gennaro in Chicago and Manhattan. Little Italy, Manhattan and Chicago were once home to many crime families in the early 1900's. Overall it is a great place to visit, especially if tu sei italiano!!

Word of the Day on October 28, 2026
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.
