Yeah, like others have said, the loop is pretty much the worst place to eat. There are tons of really great restaurants in just about any other neighborhood.

The crust is thick enough to support the toppings, but not super thick. There is a quite a bit of cheese, but not 75% or anything. I don't understand people who say it's mushy or soupy. You can usually even pick it up and eat it, especially if you didn't order a huge pizza.

I live in Chicago. I like deep dish a lot, but I only get it maybe 20 percent of the time, because it is very heavy. I usually opt for thin crust, either tavern style pizza or Neapolitan. Giordano's has a good thin crust, and I'm pretty sure I've heard they sell more thin crust pizza than stuffed.

To be fair, 4 out of the 6 people they've interviewed shared screentime with Spike, but not Angel. If they interviewed Charisma Carpenter and she picked Spike, that would be a huge slight against Angel/David Boreanaz.

I really don't like the movie at all, but the show is one of my absolute favorite shows. But there are plenty of crap episodes, and if you've only seen an episode or two, I can definitely see not getting into it. Even if you saw a good episode but not a standalone one, it requires knowing the context. Or if you

Well said. It's much easier to get invested in the characters when you spend years watching them, and even grow up with them and experience some of the same life experiences along with them.

I like season 7 a lot. It's not my favorite season, but I definitely don't think it deserves the hate it gets. The only thing to truly hate about it is Kennedy.

My brother just moved to Wisconsin from Illinois (where I live). I told him he should probably have that head injury checked out.

Go ahead and message people who haven't liked you back. When I was on OKCupid (I'm female), I got so many messages that I often didn't even look at a guy's profile until they messaged me. Of course, I live in a really big city, so there were just tons of people on there.

That's one of the reasons I love that show. There are so many dramas I've tried to watch lately, but they're all so serious all the time, it's just boring to watch. All my favorite dramas have some amount of humor in them.

I watched on Hulu. If you don't have a Hulu subscription, I don't know whether or not it's available anywhere else.

Finally watched Rick and Morty. So good.

Maybe The Office. It was my favorite show in the early seasons, so I stuck it out and watched until the end. Those later seasons were brutal, and I just haven't had any desire to rewatch any of it. Pretty much the same thing happened with How I Met Your Mother.

My boyfriend and I have decided that if/when we get married, we're combining our last names. Because they combine into Magick and that's awesome. Don't care if that's a hipster thing to do.

That's what it says for all of us.

Except the White Sox fans.

I read this a few weeks ago because I liked Gone Girl, but this was pretty bad. I just didn't give a shit about any of the characters or who the murderer was. It doesn't sound like the movie improved on that at all, so I'm gonna pass on this.

I've lived in Chicago my whole life, and I guess I never realized that Italian Beef doesn't really exist elsewhere. I mean, of course I knew it originated in Chicago, but I didn't know it was so local that other people don't even know what it is. Another reason I never want to leave.
