Yeah it’s a hoax but let’s panic anyway

We never added vinegar but we would occasionally add relish and maybe real BBQ sauce if we could afford it (the 1980s were tough).

Clover is ok. It is just as invasive and non-native as grass. At least it sometimes has some flowers, but they often get mowed off anyway. They have a whole writeup about it in that sub.

Yeah, the official old lady Pittsburgh Ham BBQ is Coke+Ketchup with some onion and garlic powder. No vinegar, because the coke and ketchup are already acidic enough. No sweetener, that's what the coke is for.

You could make that happen.

The racket and emissions caused by gas powered lawn equipment is an absolute nuisance. Despite only having a few houses on my street, and the properties being very spread out, the noise is disruptive and annoying. I feel for people who live in denser areas, the noise there must be far worse.

It wouldn't be fair to implement in all areas, but I'd support a gas lawn equipment ban in my municipality. Again, this isn't true in all areas around the county, but people in this municipality can afford electric equipment (or to pay landscapers more for acquiring electric equipment), and it would improve quality of life. If some people in this municipality can't afford it, I'd be more than willing to subsidize their shit. I frequently spend time in areas elsewhere in the US with such a ban, and the difference is night and day. So much more peaceful and quiet, not to mention the lack of nasty emissions!

I agree with you. Most of the old ladies I know that make this use Coke+Ketchup and maybe some onion and garlic powder. Regular bbq sauce doesn't work.

Mister Lahey!!!

Confirmed hoax. Students are safe and police are clearing the building to be sure

Fuck Cutting Grass.

One of the biggest wastes of our time and money in this country. Plus, gas-powered mowers are air-polluters.

Fuck companies like Scotts and TruGreen that try to make you believe having a well-manicured lawn is important.

I disagree, the authentic Pittsburgh Ham BBQ sauce is Coke and Ketchup, nothing more.

Update: Pitt has ended its lockdown, students are able to leave buildings now. It seems it was indeed a hoax, or series of hoaxes across the state

What sauce you using?

Like dead bodies.

Sounds like a pretty big change in the millage rate to go with the new assessments. Seems fair. Hard to believe that there hasn’t been a reassessment in 40+ years.

Why lie?

Absolutely nuts rn

This is info we need great thank you for sharing. I hope your brother is ok

But think of the fresh air

Yeah that was definitely a problematic email. Just got the all clear email and that classes are cancelled for the remainder of the day. This shit is wild... and depressing.

Shelter in place order has been lifted at CMU, no ongoing threat.

😭😭 should have never been demolished. Could have used it as the city’s public rink, or moved WBS here.

Probably isn't a cchs student. Seems to be happening at multiple high schools and why would a central Catholic student call? UPMC police UPMC doesn't even patrol Central Catholic and anyone in a real active shooter situation would just call 911. This sounds like some sort of internet swatting thing.

Checkout friendsoftheriverfront.org to volunteer, they have cleanup events all the time.

What the fuck
