all them folks protesting about rahm shoulda been at rauner neck for this budget though :sas2:

rahm can't do shyt to rauner. you think rauner gives a fukk? dude's damn near a billionaire. also he don't care if folks on the south side can't go to college. I'd be mad as hell if I'm a student at CSU. they were already on the verge of losing their accreditation, so if you're almost finished, it could potentially be all for nothing when jobs ain't recognizing your degree :mjcry:

Pain in the ass, but as long as you have the same paint, pretty easy and cheap to fix.

one more thing. if you live in the city of chicago and think you're gonna :eat: without a water meter. you got another thing coming.

my old house had no meter and it was cool at first. but the rates started going up exponentally. not only do the meters lock you into fixed pricing for 7 years, but the amount that you actually use is waaaaayyyyy less than what the city charges u these days for unmetered. I could run the water like crazy with 4 people in my house, and it'd cost like $60 for 2 months. whereas if I'm unmetered, they're gonna hit me with a $400 bill for 6 months. so it's more than twice as expensive.

I don't give a damn about a blizzard in merrilville. out here in the chi, we got a dusting, and that shyt melted within 24 hours so it's like :yeshrug:

:mjlol:Breh it's still some snow on the ground on the soutside. I just seen it myself earlier. Literally rode the South Shore train into the city just a few hours ago. And you call that a dusting but to me anything more than 1 inch is epic. They shut the city down for a dusting where I'm from. Y'all nikkas just used to this foolishness. It's in the 60s and 70s this wknd back home. nikka it's fukking March Breh. This the s

Breh I saw fools with short sleeves on the other day. Seen shyt like that before up here. That's how y'all roll I guess. We not built for this in the A. We enjoy our temperate winter

:mjlol:That dusting as you call it that y'all had the other day would've had nikkas off work still in the A

The nurse at my job has been talking about this for awhile. I told her that's not new from where I'm from. Hell, where I'm from, the city even sales their own trash bags.
