10 Problems Only People From Pittsburgh Would Understand

9. Jags Everywhere

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MJfNI9DppP4 "Jag" is a very universal Pittsburgh word. As a verb, to jag is to annoy or antagonize someone. If you are being facetious with your buddy, you're jaggin' him. As a noun, it is someone who engages in the act of jaggin'. This person is either a "jag" or a "jag off". A Pittsburgher who is tired of bein' jagged around by jag offs all day may want to retreat to the wilderness for a break. No luck there. Pennsylvania woods are full of "jagger bushes" (which are large, thorny plants). There's nothing like getting jagged by a bunch of jag offs while getting scratched up by jaggers. Only in Pittsburgh... The best crash course in all things Pittsburgh is online star Curt Wootton, a.k.a. "Pittsburgh Dad". He handles jags with the best of 'em.
