As a Chicagoan who loves President Obama, I cheered when we lost the bid, and I’m still grateful today that we lost it. Nothing to do with the President, everything to do with the costs, as well as who would actually benefit from the games and what damages they would leave in their wake.

Don’t worry— we all actually find it hilarious and I’m pretty sure most of the tips Jez gets about XOJane are from Jane commenters.

Uh oh. I think we’re gonna rumble.

Right, Katy has songs like Firework about how even a plastic bag can achieve its dreams.

Why, that’s the very same hero teen highlighted earlier today by Gawker’s main page. He gets around.

Did you accidentally go to a local arts and crafts fair and not the RNC?
