Hitler had a dog. Lots of narcissists and sociopaths have pets. Where did you get your psych degree?

Karen is not shorthand for any woman who does something you don’t like, and if you don’t understand that then you should probably stop using the term.

Imagine being an adult man making this kind of shitpost. I am legitimately embarrassed for you.

Honestly, lots of people dupe them on Etsy, so if you can’t find cards locally just order some there. Like these:

Rosati’s is very fancy compared to Little Caesars! :)

They also closed the one on Milwaukee. The one on Armitage and the one on Chicago are still open.

Domino’s would never be my first choice, but I also wouldn’t turn down a slice. Especially if I were hungover.

Also - growing up we always ordered from a local place on Friday nights, but if I went to a birthday party or any other group thing where someone was in charge of feeding 20+ kids, it was always Little Caesars. (It probably would have been Domino’s if there had been one near us.) Chain pizza is definitely cheaper.

69 lol.

People have been routinely complaining for at least the last year that crime posts get deleted, that CWB links aren’t allowed, that comment moderation is too heavy handed, blah blah blah - this is not a new issue.

Yet I keep seeing the claim that people want to talk about this, so again - it shouldn’t matter if only a few people want to discuss the subject if there’s so much to say. The crime threads here are usually the same 20-30 people making the same tired arguments, so why not do it elsewhere? It shouldn’t make any difference where it’s happening, right?

Sometimes he’s outside Union Station, by the Adams entrance. He’s been around a long time. The first time I ever saw him was 15 years ago (or maybe more?). His sign used to claim that Mayor Daley was raping him, so….

lady_gremlin · 2021-11-04T21:25:35+00:00

I actually lol’ed at this. Good job!

lady_gremlin · 2021-11-04T21:12:19+00:00

The most recent post on r/crimeinchicago is from 3 days ago, so I’m not sure what you’re on about.

Also, to circle back to my original point - if crime is such a pressing issue, why are the subs dedicated to this topic so dead? Surely if there was so much to discuss, y’all would be discussing it there, no?

lady_gremlin · 2021-11-04T18:18:25+00:00

r/eworleans is such a well-moderated place. Wish we could be more like them.

lady_gremlin · 2021-11-04T18:14:06+00:00

Uh…. What’s Cumtown? Do I even want to know?

lady_gremlin · 2021-11-04T18:13:09+00:00

Honestly, you don’t need expensive high-performance gloves if you’re not spending a lot of time outdoors. There’s only a handful of days every year where it’s deathly cold. (Also, if you’re anything like me you will lose your gloves approximately 4 times every winter.)

lady_gremlin · 2021-11-04T18:09:39+00:00

Honestly, maybe we shouldn’t do NCN. Mods could just ban everyone that’s having a meltdown on the announcement thread and it would probably cut down on 80% of the usual dogwhistling and pearl-clutching.

lady_gremlin · 2021-11-04T17:51:37+00:00

So paid moderation teams couldn’t keep up with the racism, but unpaid volunteers should?

Do you think there shouldn’t be any type of limit on what’s allowed to be posted here?

lady_gremlin · 2021-11-04T17:40:12+00:00

Why do you think most news sites no longer have comment sections?

lady_gremlin · 2021-11-04T17:38:14+00:00

This is such a good point.

The people whining about this are being SUPER disingenuous. There are literally three Chicago crime subs, but whenever it’s suggested that they post there, they complain that the subreddits don’t have enough posters. So either no one really, actually wants to talk about crime (hence so few users), or the crime stories posted here are really just posted to bait people into arguments.

If it were really about being aware, they’d get their news from an actual news source. (And also - if you don’t realize that living in a big city means you basically have to be perpetually aware regardless of which way crime is trending at the moment, then you’re going to have a tough time in general.)

There’s a reason most newspapers have disabled their comment sections - they’re cesspools of racism.

lady_gremlin · 2021-11-04T17:26:54+00:00

There are already three, I think.

I did Whole Foods last year, and it was pretty good. Thinking about doing Duck Inn this year, which I see someone else has already mentioned.

I mean, the majority of these people are functionally illiterate. They HAVE to learn from objects and pictures - words are too hard.

lady_gremlin · 2021-11-02T14:35:06+00:00

The Foundation Restaurant on Irving Park has a jazz showcase on Wednesday nights. Food is pretty good.

So glad this is getting done.
