 i've never been, but they have one coming up in a few days.

https://www.meetup.com/bitcoinpittsburgh/ 
 The description made me hesistate.  
 "The Pittsburgh Bitcoin Users monthly meetup is an informal gathering of crypto-currency enthusiasts..." 
 The shitcoiners wont hurt you. Except for your ear holes. 
 It's for a precoiner interested in a local thing. I'm fine with shitcoiners.  
 Oof. Yeah, I get that. Now here me out. I don't want to sound like an asshole, but I prefer Bitcoin Maxi meetups. Not Bitcoin and oh hey I also own this Shitcoin meetup. For the most part, I believe the Shitcoiners just need more education on their journey. Some are pure degens though. 
 It might just be a normal meetup using benign language but I want to validate first before I send a coworker there.  
 That’s where I’m from. Great suburbs. Good public schools. Great food. 
 You go to the meetup? 
 Naw, I haven't been back to pgh in a long time.
