I got an email from PG writer Mackenzie Carpenter who wrote the female bloggers article:
Hi, “Jane Pitt,” thanks again for submitting to my questions … John McIntire called me to try to find out who you were and I said I didn’t know, you wouldn’t talk to me.
I suspect, though, that [...]

Casu marzu goes beyond typical fermentation to a stage most would consider decomposition, brought about by the digestive action of the [...]

Today is Halloween. Today is NOT April Fools Day. So trust me when I tell you that this shit is for reals.
Apparently 23-year-olds are too mature for 84-year-old Joe Hardy, because that fat old ugly geezer went and found himself a TWENTY-TWO-YEAR-OLD HOTTIE WHO IS WILLING TO SLEEP WITH HIS FAT OLD GEEZER [...]

1. The PG scored an interview with the elusive other PG. This is me. This is my giant ego.
There’s also an article that goes with it that mentions the kickass lady bloggers of the Burgh who more often than not kick PittGirl’s ass with their awesomeness.
2. The baristo (tm me) [...]

So I got an email from WPXI telling me that I would be very interested to know that Bigfoot lives in Pennsylvania.
And they have proof.
See?
Yeah. Me either.
I’d have gone with any of the following:
A blob.
A Rorschach test to which I would respond, “A blob!”
A succubus
The chupacabra
The disease that lives in Jeff Reed’s pants
I love [...]

1. 5,000 pigeons in a car. For real.
I want my mommy. For real.
See. THIS is exactly why I try to be a good person. Because if I’m going to hell, you know Satan is watching this video all, “Oh, man. PittGirl is going TO LOVE THAT!”
(h/t Goob)
2. Oh, just [...]

This newfangled phenomenon of fantasy football has injected a decidedly odd element to family football game-watching.
My brother-in-law was cheering for his quarterback Benny, but would occasionally erupt in a frenzied “HOUSH!!!!!!” before rushing off to see where his fantasy team stood due to TJ Houshyaddayadda’s latest catch. There was me who was really wishing Carson [...]

1. Dear single men of the Burgh, if your ad on Craigslist includes the phrasing:
and im safe and sane, not some crazy nut.
… you should NOT immediately follow that bold declaration of your safeness and sanity with any of the following pictures:
Because picture number one is a perfect illustration of your crazy and picture [...]

1. Brrr. A brisk 31 degrees this morning forcing me to actually de-ice the PittGirlMobile and to break out the winter coat. Awesome.
2. I suck at fantasy football. But not as bad as Woy sucks. I’m currently in 8 out of 12 places in the Sportsocracy league. I hate Tom Brady, yo.
3. This weekend I [...]

I can’t believe I’m going to write this post.
Here goes.
In response to being named to the Steelers All-Time team, Hines said:
It’s one of the biggest honors that anyone can be a part of, next to the Super Bowl
Alan Faneca said:
