Oh, thanks for linking to that. I just watched several of his other reviews, too, and they were hilarious. (Also, his accent is making me weirdly homesick. Hey, South Jersey, Pittsburgh... close enough, especially when you've been living in New Mexico for twenty years. :))
Glad to provide you with a laugh! I grew up a little east of Philly; I can definitely tell the difference between the accents but I don't think I'd be able to explain it.
20 years, wow! What's equally crazy is I think we've internet-known each other at least half that time... (!)
Yes, it's slightly different, but hard to put one's finger on precisely. There's some different word-usage, too, I know that. Or at least there used to be. My mother's second husband was from Pittsburgh, and we always used to make fun of him for calling a shopping cart a "buggy." :)

Holy crap, that cannot be right, can it? Time, it flies like crazy... Wow.
buggies, gum bands, pop, redding up, nebby, yinz... it's a weird place. And I didn't even mention ham barbecue yet.
It's crazy. Farscape was cancelled in 2002. I've been on lj since 2003 and I know we knew each other through fic archives or something like that (Leviathan mailing list?) before LJ.
Oh, gawd. Yes, I get reactions like that far too often. Usually for me it's when people talk about growing up watching ST:TNG, and I suddenly realize that there are grown adults who never remember a time when Original Trek was the only Trek. :)
I haven't! I'm so far behind on movies. It's because I don't do Netflix very well. And D isn't really up for watching movies unless it's an Alien trilogy marathon on Christmas.
Hee! Hey, did you guys get a ton of snow yet/are you in the path of this supposed winter storm? It's got Pittsburgh in its sights I guess. But we are not supposed to get snow until 8pm and I don't know if I should believe the weather reports or not.
Supposedly we're going to get an inch or so - but it's gonna rain like mad before that happens, so I'm more worried about ice! We're partially in the path, but according to the forecasters it is gonna by pass us for the most part to hammer Indiana.
