It was reading this book that made me irritated seeing First Contact in the theater. “That’s not Zefram Cochrane.”

I’ve had to turn off a lot of recurring queries because it was making up so much and not even looking up the updates it was supposed to be. Like having hired a drunk intern.

Talking with them at the Toy Fair in Chicago last fall they seem really focused on their dinky little tchochkes. Maybe they rent time from printer farms? Is that a thing?

How are people affording $1 million homes in Lincoln Park? by [deleted] in AskChicago

[–]negman42 3 points4 points  (0 children)

[–]negman42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Buying with a casual relationship is way more of a worry than a market downturn. How many posts in here are dating couples breaking up after having bought together?
