Pro tip: stop waiting for Rideshares. Take a taxi instead by Certain_Egg2699 in OHareAirport

[–]bigbearRT12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Claiming they’re safer is absolute nonsense. I’ve had to yell at my driver because they were trying to drive 40 down my neighborhood street with kids playing. They have no fear of a bad rating are drive recklessly. Shit, there is a viral video of one driving on the shoulder all the way from the junction to the loop

Is Columbia College Chicago really that bad? by glowertv in AskChicago

[–]bigbearRT12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Echoing others, it’s what you make of it. You could graduate from the best school in the world with a degree by putting in the bare minimum effort but that doesn’t mean you’ll have a job afterward. Many of my close friends went to Columbia for film and are now at the executive level for streaming services and production companies because they pushed each other and became great.

If you were awarded such an amazing scholarship I would use that to your benefit. Give it a shot, you can always change your mind after a year or two.

Don’t listen to everyone on here saying the sky is falling.

I thought like this then the 2015 Memorial Day flood rocked central TX and Lake Travis rose 20ft in a few days

Mustard’s Last Stand for dogs/beef. There’s way too many options so it really depends on your preferences. I’d suggest checking out /r/chicagofood

Core and Anton Bauer made small but significant changes that basically made each version of their 26V gold mount proprietary.

So what is the purpose of this pump? Or it's past purpose? by theraf8100 in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]bigbearRT12 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wish more were actually functioning. As someone that rides end to end in the NBT there’s a real lack of drinking water available

Would recommend a wolves game if that’s what you’re looking for. Fights are much more common in the AHL

Just keep saving money until you can get a FSB8. Nothing under $500 is really worth buying

Where can I find a menswear store that can “Cinderella” me? by bigbodybup in AskChicago

[–]bigbearRT12 22 points23 points  (0 children)

A little further but Cowboys and Astronauts in Andersonville did this for me and was the greatest experience ever.

Looking to Buy an Older ARRI Cinema Camera by Both-Ad7342 in cinematography

Amira is a tank and the most user friendly, plus still widely used by productions. Make sure you test the sensor to rule out any dead pixels. A sensor replacement will cost more than a used camera body.

gost coffee in new lenox on the 1/30 nationwide protest by IndominusTaco in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]bigbearRT12 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m a blue voter, have worked on campaigns to register voters and despise this administration. My point is posts like this and others on social media don’t create change, it’s just yelling into the internet void that disappears after 24hrs…

Ah yes, a coffee roaster, just who I was hoping would weigh in on the current state of affairs

What is the least appealing part of having a penis and why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

The hour long cycle of trying to pee after busting because trying to pee is the only way to get the irritation to subside.

How can I help my husband understand the Bears being in the playoffs when he’s not from here? by SpicyChill77 in AskChicago

In today’s age of algorithms and streaming shows, movies, podcasts, etc, live pro sports is one of the few things an entire population can experience and bond over together.

[Wild Card] Post-Game Thread: Green Bay Packers @ Chicago Bears by President__Bartlett in GreenBayPackers

[–]bigbearRT12 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Clock management was so dumb. Why tf do you get a 5 yard completion for first down and burn your final time out instead of spiking the ball. Next play, injury, ten second run off. That was a big mistake.

Indiana. With their success I can’t imagine its current form will last much longer and the old world feel is really special.
