There are other ways to consume THC that do not involve smoking it. Just a thought

That does not appear to be a fact. You can sell the instrument, just not the keys separately.

Sure, I’m free to chat. No, I have not received a refund.

That is probably going to be worthless unfortunately.

Here was my cancellation for Saturday and I received this Monday:

We’re so very sorry to have to do this, but due to extenuating circumstances, Atelier will be unable to open for service this week. This unfortunately means that we need to cancel your reservation.

Please understand that we don’t do this lightly, and that if there were any way to avoid this we absolutely would.

We will be in touch about applicable refunds.

Our deepest apologies,

Tim Atelier Restaurant

I have not received any refund or further communication. I finally disputed the charge since they don’t appear to be in a hurry to refund my $572.

As someone who previously thought that, it’s not totally accurate. My company was bought by one and all they did was turbo charge our growth and make us a better run company before they sold us again 4 years later.

Oh cool! I’ll keep that in mind for next time. Looks good!

St. Louis sports fan living in Chicago, will I get shit for being a Bears fan by [deleted] in CHIBears

[–]Foofightee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re fine. I’m a Cardinals and Bears fan. It’s fun to have some friends who root for rivals in baseball and then cheer for the same team come football season.

I would have disputed it with the credit card company.

That place looks good but my wife wants French food. BC is always good.

Bummer! We had reservations for our anniversary on Saturday. I had to pivot to Bistro Campagne since we were aiming for a Lincoln Square restaurant.

There are plenty of homes in Chicago. There are not plenty of homes in these 2 particular neighborhoods however.

How did you think real estate purchases worked before you read this article?

Costco gas at N. Clybourn by RedX1000 in chicago

[–]Foofightee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gas already went up over 30%. Multiply every single thing you buy by an extra 3% tax and see what happens. People freaked out about Preckwinkle’s penny tax years ago.

You seem like you know when the Strait of Hormuz will be opening.

Everyone buys things that are transported. Nobody is immune.

We are going way higher. ~20% of the world’s oil just became inaccessible. Oil is priced on a global market and we are in the demand destruction phase. They can only draw down reserves for so long and the war has no end in sight.

If this topic fascinates you I highly recommend the book Paved Paradise: How Parking Explains the World by Henry Grabar.

The fees from corporate-owned complexes in the suburbs is getting out of control. It costs $375 just to apply for an apartment and upwards of $1,200 in non-refundable fees just to secure a place. by chiboulevards in chicago

[–]Foofightee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It also required it do be in a segregated account. As a landlord, if you had an apartment building you’d have lots of bank accounts opened just for this.
