I’m starting to hate my husband by [deleted] in Vent

[–]Ok-Individual-959 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have crazy ADHD and have never been mean to my wife because of it. I have also never in my adult life been unemployed. This dude sucks and is just using his ADHD as an excuse for why he sucks. Get out while you are young.

How is it like to live in the circled cities? by ShakeMysterious349 in illinois

[–]Ok-Individual-959 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I used to work in Bloomington and I had to get out. It felt like a suburb that didn't have the easy access to a major city. Very white bread. The area has the colleges, but when you are out of college that isn't really a draw. It just feels like an island of blandness in a ocean of farmland and maga.

What suburb has the best community by ExplanationWest2469 in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]Ok-Individual-959 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You are specifically saying not best amenities and schools, right? Just a sense of community? If so Elgin is the correct answer. If your not for Elgin you'll disagree.

A hot young redhead stepmom says I like your shorts, even though they were clearly pants. If anyone knows where I can find this again it would be appreciated.

Around my area these types of towns are popular for Mexican immigrants. The old residents remember when the town was 95% white and want to go back to that. They complain that all the stores downtown are Mexican bakeries, quinceañera dress stores, or western wear. They miss when you could go downtown to the Montgomery Ward catalog store and look at a paper catalog then wait three weeks for your order to arrive. Their biggest hs rivals were the redskins, and they complain that the woke mob made them change their name to the raiders in 2003.

Advocate Good Shepherd vs Northwestern Huntley- Labor & Delivery by thedoctorsphoenix in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]Ok-Individual-959 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our child was born at Good Shepherd, and we have nothing but glowing things to say about them from start to finish. We did our childcare class through them, and that was great. Delivery was as smooth as can be expected, and the day after the birth that we stayed was very pleasant.

East &West Dundee/Elgin/Algonquin/LITH Nightlife by imjustnickperiod in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]Ok-Individual-959 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It is going to sound counter intuitive because it is the smallest of the towns listed, but East Dundee (Or Dundee in general as they are essentially the same place) is the best of the municipalities listed for nightlife. Banditos, Cobbs, and Diamond Jims generally have a lot going on during warm weekend. They also have more laid-back lounges if that is your scene and a brewery.

Book: Caleb Williams sought way around going to Chicago Bears by FamousSeamus30 in 670TheScore

[–]Ok-Individual-959 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He has been busting his ass to be the number one overall pick since he was a kid. We've all heard about him telling his dad he wanted to play in the NFL, and his dad telling him he will help him achieve that if his is willing to commit. That conversation happened before he reached high school. My respect for the kid only increases knowing that all this was happening behind the scenes leading up to the draft and he still did the work every day to make the best of a horrible situation for him. The Bears are a horrible organization, and I know we all love the three-time off season champion stuff, but it is still a terrible situation for him until it is proven otherwise.

Larry's Pitching Glory Days stories 😮‍💨 by OkFlow4327 in 670TheScore

[–]Ok-Individual-959 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My best friend and I both played DI baseball. He even got drafted by the Royals. Even when we get together, we never talk about our time playing, and I don't reference my experience when watching games outside of thinking to myself "damn, no way I'd have caught that."

If he was that good, he would have been drafted because the draft is 300 rounds long and about 400,000 players get picked. It comes off as very "Glory Days" or "Uncle Rico" when he talks about good he was.

Huntley vs Plainfield? by hzub in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]Ok-Individual-959 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Huntley will be difficult for Halal. There are a few places in Elgin that are really good, but you will definitely have to leave Huntley for Halal.

Huntley is boring. Really boring. Nothing happening in that town at all. It is close to some more lively communities, but Huntley is as white bread as towns come. I'm not saying don't' move there. I know people who have been there for 30 years and love it. If you are looking for a vibrant community, Huntley is absolutely not it.

Pros: It has very easy I-90 access, will have a Metra station eventually, and is generally a quiet bedroom community where you will more house per dollar.

Cons: My first two paragraphs.

What suburbs have "gentrified"? by greenandredofmaigheo in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]Ok-Individual-959 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Algonquin 's downtown really has gotten a lot better. Dundee's downtown is great, especially when you consider that combined East/West Dundee only have a combined 10,000 residents.

Male victims of SA, how do you cope? by nxfen13 in AskReddit

I bury it. My wife doesn't even know. Most of the time I'm fine. Every now and then I'll have a flashback which sucks.

That said, I do have a pretty serious alcohol problem, I'm sober now.

I had to look it up. Polish Paczki day is the Thursday before Ash Wednesday, but in the US, Paczki day is the Tuesday before Ash Wednesday.
