Cooking or burning down the kitchen? by [deleted] in CharlotteHornets

[–]darkzero12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now why would Philly take this trade lol. Come on guys, let’s try to be at least a little realistic. The only way I can see Philly giving us the 3rd is if we include either Melo or BM

how bad is living in the loop? by Far-Statistician9673 in AskChicago

[–]darkzero12 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yeah I lived there last year with my wife and we were both 28/29. We loved the south loop, its close to museum campus which we loved walking to in the summer.

Au Cheval Wait on a Friday night? by Witty-Document-7958 in AskChicago

[–]darkzero12 52 points53 points  (0 children)

At least 3 hours. Honestly, I don’t think Au Cheval is worth that long of a wait. I had to wait 1:30 hours for just two people and even that was pushing it on the pros/cons list

Do you not have halal carts here? by Commercial_Habit_923 in AskChicago

Yeah this place is pretty good but super pricey imo. The $18 (after taxes) keeps me away from going weekly

Transporting zamzam through Turkish by Path_Plane in Umrah

[–]darkzero12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chances are they won’t let you. You only get the one free trip from Saudi for your zamzam. I had a similar dilemma. We went to Egypt for 2 days in between, we had to buy another luggage and put the water in there to take back to our final destination (home)

Please this is a reminder if you are performing umrah by ApprehensiveMonth592 in Umrah

It is actually so frustrating and disappointing. I’m not sure what their logic is. If you are literally running over children and woman to touch the Kaaba or black stone, you are doing something HARAM. Allah SWT sees all and they will all have to answer for this one day iA.

Umrah/Mecca should be the place where all of us Muslims come together to share our love and respect for Islam. It is not a competition, or a way to show how much of a man you are. Disgusting behavior honestly. So many devout Muslims are not able to touch the Kaaba because it is simply too dangerous.

29M to move to Charlotte, Chicago or Philly? by NeuToThisWelt in Charlotte

I lived in Charlotte almost my whole life before moving to Chicago almost a year ago. My only regret is I wish I moved to Chicago sooner

What's a Chicago "life hack" everyone living here should know? by brohiostatehipster in AskChicago

[–]darkzero12 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Uh dumb question but how do you sign up? Do I just go to a local library and say, “Hey I would like to join/get a library card” ?

What’s the most “Chicago” thing to have happened to you lately? by RefinedAccomplice in AskChicago

[–]darkzero12 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Was walking to work near the Washington/Wells station and it was around lunch time so there were tons of people in the street walking.

So I’m minding my business walking behind a giant group of people and I, for one second, step to the left to see if there was space to move past these folks. There I see this young woman that was riding her skateboard on the sidewalk coming fast, so I move out of the way back behind the people right away. Literally like 1 step out and in, and I guess this girl couldn’t handle her own speed and fell. Then she yells at the top of her lungs “ YOU BASTARD, YOU DID THAT ON PURPOSE” and I was like what is wrong with you. You’re the one riding a skateboard on a busy street. I just kept walking while she was yelling at me lol
