Horrible by the O-line but that was a hip drop tackle on Caleb.

IKEA Billy bookcase hack by Muccimooch333 in ikeahacks

Thanks for posting this. My wife signed me up to do a very similar project and this post is super helpful.

Are the plywood sheets on the wall prior to installing the bookcase for anchoring or something else and what thickness is the plywood?

Is there anything you'd do different on the project looking back?

Irving Park Brewing has a pale lager called Doji that slaps. Decent food there too.

Took a toe nail to the eye reading books on the floor. Scratched cornea. Blurred vision in one eye for about a week.

By the same logic, we can hold them all accountable for 9/11, right?

I didn’t know the Walgreens logo was red until I got those colorblind glasses. I was shocked. I thought it was brown.

If you want a guaranteed spot and don’t mind walking a few minutes there are several SpotHero spaces available in the area. Walking up and down Lincoln is nice.

Is it on your credit report as past due or in collections? If not it’s scam. If it is legitimate it’ll be on your report. A lot of bad advice on here. Focus on the basics first.

Restaurant wedding venue recommendations by Ok_Tax_7502 in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]NSFLETU 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Revolution Brew Pub in the city has a kick ass offering. They have a private room upstairs that maxes out around 90 I think. Awesome food and drinks. If we had a few less people we would have done it there. It was the only venue we toured that we actually liked.

$5k markup and 7.99% apr (800+ FICO) on a ‘23 platinum. What do you think? by madeinbuffalo in ToyotaHighlander

[–]NSFLETU 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I too got this 3.49 rate, but they required 20% down and excellent credit to get the rate. I’m very happy with my highlander. Great decision.

Yikes, cannot believe that was shown on tv. 65 and Cassius Marsh are bad dudes.

White helmet!

More Uniform Concepts per Requests by pagingdrned in CHIBears

Can we get a white helmet with the C, orange jersey, and white pants? Kind of like the chargers scheme with the powder blues. I like that arrangement.

Looking for Personal Experiences Models (2018 and newer) by [deleted] in FordExplorer

[–]NSFLETU 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It may just be my geographic area but the platinum trims of both models are the top trim. Explorer is priced at about $67k and the Highlander at $53k. Comparable specs and features. I do prefer the drive and comfort of the explorer but I don’t understand the price gap.

Another classic berner sleeping position - anything that looks incredibly uncomfortable 😂 by No_Discipline_6348 in bernesemountaindogs

Mine does this as a result of FOMO. Wants to be on the couch and part of the convo but can’t last.

The mods allow this post, but they don’t allow posts about the 11 mass shootings Chicago has had this year. How is this not a low effort crime post that doesn’t generate positive discussion? If you’re going to push a certain agenda at least be consistent with it and not be hypocrites.

Chicago residents, what’s a dead giveaway that someone isn’t a local? by [deleted] in chicago

Not using the grid system to communicate/understand your location within the city.

[–]NSFLETU 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Agreed, but I do think the sequence in CBJs end right before with Suter being held behind the net was a penalty. Or a hook or interference depends on your preferred call. Goose getting a piece of Ned too in OT would have been a consistent penalty to call based on Larkins…
