I don't think anything is ever going to surpass push of a button 4x4 wheel drive and being able to place a mud caked mountain bike in the cab of a pickup but not too bad for "dark gay purple".

If you go to Westport during the summer and close it down you'll see some stuff. Those thugs and voters like Zach make this city unsafe

gas is too pricy for road rage, already creeping up towards 4 bucks a gallon again. You wanna waste your money to get places a couple minutes faster you go ahead.

Got morons in CRVs trying to race my Mustang GT at stop lights and it's like whatever you goof. You wish I was young and dumb enough to care, would see nothing but tail lights.

GF loves big cities though and we have free lodging. It would be fun to eat local and take in a Cubs game for me.

She will know all the in and outs, she’s liberal as **** and your a beta outstanding citizen… she will take care of you, all performers care about their audience. Frazod may be right, **** Chicago might be in the works.

If you beep your Moron-O horn at a Black Yukon, silver CTS, brown Z71, red IROCZ or a black 78 Trans Am… It could be me, **** around and find out

I moved nearly a year ago. My biggest concerns now are kids throwing water balloons at cars, getting the drip system to my landscaping dialed in and having enough sunscreen. Feels good.

That said, I still very much enjoy traveling to Chicago for a couples days every other month or so. My wife still has an office there so I use it as an excuse to fly in with her just to eat at my favorite spots then come home.

It is different though. Between corps that left and WFH downtown is creepily quiet. My old and favorite hoods, Wicker Park and Logan Square, are mostly boarded up and blighted now. Places I'd walk without a second thought a couple years ago I don't walk now. Its like the mostly gentrified areas have slipped back into the 90s. Someone above mentioned heavy crime being isolated to just the bad areas, Chicago is an outlier here as they intentionally target "better" neighborhoods because why not? Why carjack a hoopie in Englewood when you can grab Becky's Lexus in Lincoln Park.

But there's still some great places to enjoy and the food/drink scene is still world class. I never really vibed with the Loop or River North so I stay at The Robey in Wicker Park when I go back. Its got a cool boutique vibe and still gives you walkability, quick assess to the L or 20 minute Ubers anywhere.

I can't recommend much in Wrigley because I tried to avoid that area as a resident but Chicago for 2 or 3 days eating and drinking can still be fun. I'm your SME for Chicago pizza, steakhouse, ramen, hot chicken and brewery recommendations.

*EDIT: Toons is a Chiefs bar in Wrigley. Its nothing special outside of the Chiefs playing though.

I'll admit that my hatred of Chicago is pretty much pathological at this point. I hated living there, I hated working there, I hated commuting there after I moved, and I hate that it's wretched influence has pretty much ruined the entire state. Getting whacked from my job after 19 years, 11 months and two weeks was the last straw. In his book Band of Brothers, Stephen Ambrose wrote about how Dick Winters loathed the 101's commanding officer, General Taylor. During an interview Ambrose actually chided Winters for being completely unfair to Taylor. Winters replied "I don't want to be fair." That's how I feel about Chicago. Sure, there are some good things about it. Ask someone else about them.

Is KC’s crime as bad as some are saying in this thread?

just look at a crime map

per capita KC has more crime than a lot of big cities

Quote:

Kansas City has a violent crime rate of 1,596 violent crimes per 100,000 people, which is 417 percent higher than the national average.
19th in murders per 100K

Zach trying to make Troost seem like Brookside and getting smacked down.

That is hilarious I doubt he’s driving down it for decades.

If you go hogging, you gotta grease them up to get them in. Good or bad depending on fullness of scrotum

Not true. I was ubering last night and your mom fit in the cargo area just fine. Dropped her off at Touches and gave Billay the heads up.

Rainbarrel 04-01-2023 02:22 PM

What qualifies as a "hog" may very by region

Just say this:

They're not doing it to you.
They're just doing it.
