This. When my husband spent an extended period of time in the hospital I went to Aldi with a set amount of cash and my calculator. I added up the prices of all the items I needed as I put them in my cart and then added in IL 2.5% grocery tax. I had a hard cut off for those kinds of expenses.

Hey, we’re not all ignorant racist assclowns. But like a black hole, we all eventually end up back there mired in our own mediocrity.

As a native of Indiana, I was confused as to why you were using Hoosier as a derogatory term.

I would pretty much watch Nathan Fillion in just about anything.  Including that second Percy Jackson movie. Which I fully admit to seeing in a theater.

Part of this was because I was homesick for the midwest (who knew that would happen) but I was there for two years 5 months and 3 weeks - who counts shit like that down?  I was never happier to move to Chicago. But my comfort here is because I grew up in the suburbs (albiet in Indiana). I guess a good description of…

I’m not the only one who clicked because of the Mummy still, right?

Can confirm. I lived in Boston for a couple of years and I was never more aware of being a black person than I was when I was there (and that is something that is always at least on one of my mental stove burners).

I mean, not a wool sweater, but a nice mid-weight sweater and just the sweater. Not a coat over the sweater. Or even better! A sweater coat over a T-shirt! And boots. October is when I can break out my boots again. BOOTS!

I’m going to fight you on October. I LOVE October. Despite all those basic bitches getting pumpkin spice lattes in the Starbucks.  It has perfect weather and it smells crisp and I can wear a sweater and neither be sweaty as fuck or butt ass freezing.

My husband, bless his naive soul, is the person who falls for this stuff..  It’s all I can do to lock his computer down.

Clearly you’ve never once ridden the 151. 

It’s always rich white old women who wear furs and get off at Goethe who do that shit. It honestly took everything to not snap off on her. But honestly, you don’t go touching people - you don’t know who is gonna take a fork out of their pocket and stab you with it.

I lived in Indiana - I was born there. It’s full of smokers who eat friend food.

I almost snapped off on an older white woman on the 151 bus here in Chicago because she touched me unnecessarily (I mean not the “I’m trying to squeeze past you on this packed ass bus” touching, but the “I’m going to physically poke you to get your attention touching”). I’d probably get arrested if someone touched my…

You know what is missing from this chart? Whether or not you can pet the animals. Honestly, that was one of the few things I enjoyed about AC III, and I missed it dearly in Syndicate and Unity - It didn’t break either of those two games, but I loved having Edward stop to pet cats on the roofs in Havana. I was elated…

My god Melania has a lot of botox in her forehead. She can’t properly smile. There is no movement in her head, no wrinkles... it ain’t even close to reaching her eyes. But to be fair, being married to a sentient orange cheeto might remove any actual real joy from my life too.

I mean, if you buy it in WI, WI is charging you their sales tax, I assume. And come April you are supposed to say “yes, I bought a $1000 TV in Wisconsin, please tax me for it, IL!” but nobody does. I don’t. I go visit my parents in IN all the time and always stop at the outlets in my hometown, but never once have I…

Only if you buy it online. And from say “Wisconsin’s bargain TV outlet” and not say, Best Buy because there are Best Buy stores in Chicago and if you bought it online Best Buy would charge you the 6.25% Illinois sales tax (but not the Cook County 10.25%...go figure).  For reference, I bought a TV online from Best Buy,…

I love everything about that cover. The gauzy orange dress! The contrasting blue headline! Janelle!

Nothing causes me more anxiety than when my husband rolls up to me (usually while I am playing video games and in the middle of killing a leopard or a rogue templar or some shit) and says “can we talk?” AND THE WORST PART?! IT’S NEVER CAN WE TALK DRAMA WORTHY! He’s lucky I really don’t have a flaming sword because…
