Right. I keep hoping, rightly or wrongly, that when it becomes legal in Illinois in January, more people will vape or use edibles and then Michigan Avenue won’t smell like ass all the time. 

Not at ALL for taking into the movie theater. For...cooking.

I thought this excellent comment on the previous article did a good job of articulating a few of the differences, as they saw them, between the candidates.

I once went to a bar for a (college) football game that did like $40 all you can drink Coors Light/Miller Light and all you can eat wings. My friend and I got there like two hours in advance of the game and managed to score a table..it was the smallest table they had, a booth that fit four.

I was sitting here trying to remember the name of it, and I was like “Was it the Mr. Ribb? Wait, am I thinking of Mr. Pibb? Is it the Ribwich? No, that’s The Simpsons. I think it was Mr. Ribb, and how did I never notice that it was so similar to Mr. Pibb??” LOL

Dimo’s near Wrigley had it on special for a while, and it IS fucking delicious!

Our school cafeteria equivalent was called Mr. Ribb, and even it was delicious, in spite of school lunch limitations.

I was recently staying with my parents while I was home in Nebraska, and my dad made me some fried eggs. I went to find some hot sauce in the fridge, but they didn’t have any, so I chose some Pace hot salsa instead. It was the first time I’d had Pace in years, and I was surprised by how decent it was! Good texture for…

These are what Culver’s is using now, if their most recent commercials are any indication.

A girl in my office got pertussis like a month later, so I was REALLY glad I’d gotten mine!

There’s a huge difference between say, telling someone you should respond to a cranky old dude in a nursing home with kindness, and telling everyone it’s cool you’re hanging out with this awful war criminal because you’re just so kind, and you should all be kind to that sort of people too, because kindness is great.

It bothers me so much that she tried to deflect all the criticism with “Just be kind!” It’s such a chicken shit defense that doesn’t reckon at all with the criticism she received. “Oh, you’re mad about me, whose celebrity is inextricably linked with her sexuality, hanging out with a dude who pissed all over gay…

Also, even if you are not pregnant, get a TDAP booster! I didn’t know you were supposed to get one at all, ever, until my niece was born about 7 weeks premature, and my sister asked if I would get one before I visited the NICU. We’re supposed to have one every 10 years in adulthood.

I enjoyed the effort to keep this general, rather than devolving into the cheese I had one time that’s made on an island accessible only by whaleback that makes one wheel per year. 

I can tell by looking at that cheese that I would like it. I will have to keep an eye out for it!

Right! A cheese for all occasions! I don’t want American on my crackers, but I don’t want gjetost on my egg sandwich.

I think Chicago has room for all types of pizza, but I’m glad we’ve been giving tavern-style more attention lately, because it’s really fucking good.

Do...these people not understand what a balloon is? Have they never seen one before? Why would they think hitting a balloon with a stick would pop it?

I also routinely feel awful because the water in my apartment building takes forever to get hot. I wash my dishes with cold water, most of the time, but I just can’t bring myself to take cold showers. Happily the bathroom water heats up faster than the kitchen does.

TJ’s has amazing dips, I will definitely look out for this one. Their Artichoke & Jalapeno greek yogurt dip has always been a favorite of mine! Plus their pub cheese is delicious too.
