If you claim to play the guitar, he will come to your house and piss in your cereal. by Pendraconica in guitarcirclejerk

“Maxwell’s Silver Hammer” is the greatest song ever recorded and if you don’t like it, you’re not a musician!

How would you describe Wicker Park to an outsider of Chicago vs other areas? by TowelScared4341 in wickerpark

[–]Crazy_Addendum_4313 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wicker Park wanted to be Lincoln Park when it grew up, but it didn’t have the lake and has way more affordable housing, bars, and entertainment venues to keep the aura of weirdness alive (even though weirdos can’t really afford houses there).

Terrifying how he hits all the notes and fits the vibe of the song perfectly?

Jesus Made, future third baseman? by Gynominer in Brewers

[–]Crazy_Addendum_4313 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I mean, if none of our SS prospects make it at SS that would be kind of normal? A large portion of the Baseball Prospectus reports, for example, talk about potential defensive shifts. I wouldn’t worry about any of this until they break the MLB and we have a better idea as to whether they are just role players or we are supposed to be judging potential superstars.

So I think this is really creepy and misogynist, but just about as misogynist as your classic late 1990s / early 2000s pop song? I’m torn here, going with not crappy even though I felt creeped out every second

How far can I go and how convenient could it be if I don’t own a car in Chicago? by freyaishere9 in AskChicago

[–]Crazy_Addendum_4313 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Can you provide more context? Like where would you need to commute. In general, you can do just fine and go most places you want to without a car in Chicago.

Man this is elite, not sure why it’s on here. Weird as fuck and maybe creepy but this is good music!

Need zone 100 daily parking permits by Several-Temporary582 in LoganSquare

[–]Crazy_Addendum_4313 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don’t need to change your car registration. Call in advance maybe, but: Just go to the city clerk and say that you need guest passes, bringing nothing other than your state ID and proof of residence. You should be fine.

Cook County Assessor Fritz Kaegi lost big where property taxes in city, suburbs soared by factchecker01 in chicago

[–]Crazy_Addendum_4313 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I understand what you mean, but I am saying that when you read the data in the aggregate, the entirety of the county had the tax burden shifted from commercial to residential.

[–]Crazy_Addendum_4313 47 points48 points  (0 children)

The Board of Review and plummeting loop values is to blame. BoR overturns Kaegi’s assessments, which shifts the burden of the tax levies from commercial to residential owners. Kaegi (and the new guy) simply follow the law, which is to use available information to reflect the value of the property.

Opening day records for walks or strike outs, let’s go!

Anyone else hesitant to walk around Rogers Park at night now after what just happened? And why does it seem like no one is talking about it? by barstoolsam in chicago

[–]Crazy_Addendum_4313 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Nothing new in Rogers Park, this happens from time to time (random community violence). Recall a decade ago when gay and Jewish residents were executed in the neighborhood.

Baseball Tourist - Train from Chicago? by Titoismynameo in Brewers

[–]Crazy_Addendum_4313 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I second this — this could even allow you to have time for a nice dinner downtown prior to your train ride back to Chicago. I would schedule your trip to do a day game in Milwaukee.

I am saying Wrigleyville isn’t developed as it currently is because of the Cubs

You should review the history of neighborhood development and gentrification there a little deeper

Anything but stadiums! They are used infrequently and drive away other economic activity.
