The Official Chicago Discussion Thread

[the next guy]

Damn I used to work right over there on 102nd Torrence. Used to go to that car wash all the time smh

Sorry to hear that.

I went to school in Chicago and ended up living there for two more years after I graduated just because I loved the city so fukking much... Its such a great city to be young in because you can go to a bar on a thursday afternoon downtown and it'll be packed with people... Im glad I left though. Just heard one of my friends was shot while walking home a few weeks ago... Its crazy to think, Amongst all the beauty this city has to offer, they have hella sociopaths under the age of 18 walking around ready to lick shots on the first person who looks at them wrong... I have some moments when I first moved there... I remember when I barely escaped like a 10+ on 10+ wild wild west style shootout... shyt was fukking ridiculous... I thought I was in a movie...

Chicago is its ways is so interesting. It's like they dropped every ethnic group into one spot in the middle of the country. Things change from block to block.

And i HATE when you come across somebody and dey find out you from Chicago:

Person: "Yeah i'm from dere too!"

Me: " Str8 up?, What part you from?"

Person: "Well actually i'm from Wheaton, IL but i go to the city like every weekend."

Me:

Well OG if they said Wheaton or Lisle no one knows where the fukk that is. Same with people from Stamford, CT claiming NYC.

Wheaton , I hear they in Wheaton

Art Barr:

Please do tell the story of how you lost the girlfriend/fiance/love of your life. I never heard this saga before.

You should write a book of your Chi-town life on that "Native Son" tip. Like "If He Hollers" for gen-x?

But do not expect any living woman to try to compete with your deceased woman's memory, AB. It's not worth the effort. Life is for the living.

she was killed in a car crash.

in my senior year of high school.

at this moment i really don't feel like going indepth about that in much detail right now.

personally,..if you wanted a city with the looks landscape wise of the chi.

with the no alley aesthethic of ny mixed in.

with no aggression in the population like an american city...

plus better looking women with their actual culture.

where you can rely on another black man to help you.

or anyone who is receptive to a good natured person in general.

You need to get past this race sh!t, Art.

you are a transplant in the most segregated city in the world.

michigan has incredible submissions of white cats in the culture of hiphop.

of which i have a large number of friends.

i know from experience. i do not wish on anyone to be actualized.
what is good wih chicago and its segregated landscape.

you come from grand rapids,...a tame division of michigan.

i beem in gr, flint, troy, hamtramack, tha d, pontiac, saginaw,....
as a real urban fixture in a number of capacities.

michigan is not filled with racial prejuidice like tha chi.

i am the city heir of this city,..i know my city, joe.

U cant go by what an old white man posing as a black militant on a message board have to say about Chicago women....Chicago is a huge city....entirely too many women in this city to judge them as a whole.

Cus a lot of these men out here either look like Twista or one of them do or die nikkas them damn selves.

Now you're being silly.

Michigan is the home of the Michigan Militia. I grew up north of GR not too far from where Terry Nichols and Timmothy McVeigh were rolling around in the weeds training for helter-skelter.

Detroit is the home of "White Flight."

Mid-michigan is full of uneducated trashers that fly the stars and bars. I've only seen one Confederate flag since I've been in this city. ONLY ONE!

That isn't to say that Chicago isn't racist... but dude, you're a grown ass man. You need to realize that you're limiting your potential when you only associate with the brokeass black folks that you grew up around.

Black people in this city think it's acceptable to stand on the street and harass people for money. I've seen them bring their kids out there to help them pan-handle. Do you really think that minset is productive? Is only limiting yourself to that good for you?

I guess what I'm saying is that racism exists. It's a social dynamic present anywhere you go in this country. The sooner you get over it, the sooner you can maintain a job and become a productive member of society.
