OT: Why different tone when dealing with other teams fans?

[PensandCaps]

Getting mad at someone or being rude to someone at a game just because they're fans of the opposing team is never okay. You're taking this way too seriously if you're a heckler.

Dude, no....this is BEST mashup ever, but you're not the LZ fan, so forget it....

Guilty as charged, though I am a huge James Brown fan.

Let's also enjoy some Soviet aerobics classes!

OK, I understand porn, but are there other things on the internet?

I swear to me mum if you're slagging off the Muppets........

Watch it bud.

Most of us are from Pennsylvania.

Have you ever talked to people from Pennsylvania?

I grew up Pens fan in NC. I've actually only been to Pittsburgh once in my life.

Pittsburgh especially is the kind of weird hospitable, nice culture of PA. There is a reason they call it Pennsyltucky. It also is why you have the crazy asshole fans because sports is basically all they care about.

Philadelphia doesn’t really encapsulate this because of the fact they are a huge city with an inferiority complex. They want to be New York and until the Crosby era Philly literally dominated us outside of a few years in the Lemieux era when they fell off from being a cup contender for almost 20 years.

I was under the impression that Pennsyltucky comes from the fact that between Pittsburgh and Philly is a barren wasteland devoid of culture or humanity.

Pennsylvania is just Pittsburgh and Philadelphia with Moldavia in the middle.

What about Breezewood, land of Motels? Old exit 12 on the I-76!

I was under this impression as well. Still not sure what the f*** a Pennsylvania Dutch is?

I think that's when you lay under a glass table and somebo... Oh wait...

Oh man, the memories of driving through there on my trips north. There was that motel. Several gas stations. That one diner/gas station combo. And then that other motel. Can't forget any of the 17 identical diners. Did I mention the motel?

Don't listen to them. Central and Northern PA are the good parts of the state. Pitt and Philly are just two reeking armpits to an awesome state.

I may have to go to Vandergrift for a work project. How is that area?

 

[Sidney the Kidney]

For me, I think it's familiarity and also making sure my message is more important than the avatar or the username.

When I'm discussing things with fellow Pens fans, I can be a bit more ... aggressive because I don't have to worry about them defaulting to some knock about the Pens rather than what I wrote. When I'm discussing things with outside fans, I try to tone it down so that they won't get derailed into attacking me as a Pens fan, rather than focusing on what I'm saying.

I also like to visit other forums, and as such, I view myself as an outsider so I try to remain more civil. When I'm on the Pens sub-forum, I feel more "at home" and don't have to worry about being on offensive intruder.

Not...........great.......

 

[HandshakeLine]

I mean, "grift" is in the name of the place...

 

[Brandinho]

If Vandergrift is anything like the character of the same name from The Witcher, I'd avoid it.

Being a massive fan of the Witcher series (both books and video games), I feel ashamed the name sounds familiar but can't quite place it.

I shoulda guessed. The economy tab on it's Wiki page doesn't even expand.
