That could have been really bad

When it comes to languages, I have a passing knowledge of Italian...but I'm fluent in Pittsburghese. Every once in a while though, something surprises me. Like this handy phrase-Kennywood's open. I sure am glad I learned the translation before I spend May 20 shouting it (Kennywood's opening day.) In the burgh, the phrase alternately can mean "psst, buddy, your zipper's down."
