			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p><a title="Jaemie.com" href="http://www.jaemie.com/" target="_blank">Jaemie</a> just emailed me about a new site that I wanted to share: <a href="http://stuffyinzerslike.com/">Stuff Yinzers Like.</a></p>
<p>In the vein of <a title="It's satire, people" href="http://stuffwhitepeoplelike.com/" target="_blank">Stuff White People Like</a>, they&#8217;re in the processing of documenting the cultural peccadilloes of our man crush (city crush? You get the idea) to the west, including this gem:</p>
<blockquote><p><a href="http://stuffyinzerslike.com/"></a><br />
In the event that you might need to park on the street where Yinzers might live, be sure to NEVER, EVER move a chair to park. Regardless of your self-righteousness and knowledge that, not only is it legal for you to park in that space, it is illegal for the Yinzer to put a chair in the middle of the street, you or your car would most likely be in serious danger. Simply keep driving around and accept that Yinzer culture isn’t bad, it’s just different.</p></blockquote>
<p>Although, don&#8217;t forget, around here it&#8217;s not &#8220;<em>yinz</em>&#8220;. It&#8217;s &#8220;<strong><em>yunz</em></strong>&#8220;.</p>
<p>(It is bad I wish we still had a Gabe&#8217;s in town?)</p>

But theres much more to experience in Johnstown. Explore beyond the basic &#8220;flood&#8221; attractions and youll find both harsh and heartwarming stories about the trials European immigrants faced when they flocked here to make new lives. In fact, give it some thought and youll realize visiting Johnstown is a memorable way to learn more about this countrys industrial revolution and the people who fed its fires.</p></blockquote>
<p>Yes, come and have your &#8220;staycation&#8221; here in Johnstown. Enjoy perogies, gobs, then tear down the Stonycreek in a boat-shaped Little Tikes plastic sandbox:</p>
