    fucking masterpiece. A+ 10/10 however not enough "fahkin" and "wicked" should have been "wicked awesome"

    I love how the “Mayor of Boston” taps his name plaque like “see- says so right here, guy”

    Yeah I'm from the Boston area and have never once heard someone say pissah other than making fun of the stereotypical Boston accent. We say wicked all the time, but not pissah.

      +Stan McMan My mum says it unironically all the time (4th generation Brookline) but I think it's just kinda outdated. Like "groovy" but more local, haha

      Yeah, I grew up in RI, Mass, and NH and I heard/said wicked all the time growing up in the 80's, but the only time I ever heard pissah (until SNL) was actually in a negative sense (and not that often).

      That's bullshit. People say it all the time. I even say it and I hate Boston.

      I grew up in Weymouth in the 80s and I've only known one guy in my life who said pissah. Quincy townie, older than me. He would say it all the time..."oh man, it was pissah!"...I guess it was a 70s thing...

    Beautiful, and as a Brit I really enjoyed how many of those place names are also quaint English towns

    Having lived in Boston for a while, I'd argue it's hard to get Anywhere in an hour!

    I’m watching this for at least my 2nd time. This is educational for non-Americans.
