“What does jawn even mean?” “Steak and cheese sandwich”
When you’ve been in Philadelphia for a long time, you know the city pretty much like the back of your hand. This also means that some things that happen are extremely annoying but that people from outside the city may not relate to. We asked our Facebook and Instagram followers what annoys a Philadelphian in five words or less, and they did not hold back!
