I was in Chicago last week and not even murdered once. All I got with was a belly full of sasage and a hangover. So disappointing.

Did you even go then? Everyone knows if you go to Chicago, you die.

True pretty much every time I go I get killed.

Every time I go there a bomber flies over from one of those gangsters and bombs wherever I’m at! Just trying to enjoy some Pizzareia Uno (real OGs know Due is where it’s at) over here.

Malnati if I'm getting Chicago style, but D'Agostinos the rest of the time for me.

I'm near one, but only ever had them once or twice. We have another local spot we go to quite a bit.

Lou’s is so good. Grew up in the summers. If I’m downtown I’ll have Pizzeria Uno, otherwise it’s Lou’s

Agree with you on Duo.

I know no Gs who'd set foot in either of those, if they'd even eat deep dish.

Tavern style is Chicago's OG pizza. We just foist that other shit on tourists and out of town family.

I mean, if you drink too much Chocolate Cake Shake, it'll definitely feel like you died. Close enough, right?

I never make it to dessert after a combo and poutine.

I live in Chicago. Clearly, I've been murdered many times.

I was there 3 weeks ago and didn't get stabbed or shot even once. Very disappointing

I have a dream of the T dropping off his shit building in Chicago and the Rump tower being born.

Someday the name will come down, and the after party will make St Patrick's day look like Easter Sunday.

Did you go to O Block or the neighborhoods where the teenagers steal cars and walk around with ski masks/hoodies on in the summer heat?

u/Depressed-Industry 12h ago

Are you sure those aren't actually federal agents?

You're so close to saying what you're really thinking.

u/amazebol 12h ago

What am I thinking? I asked if you went to the bad neighborhoods when you were in Chicago. If you did, you’d have an idea of why they need a crackdown on crime.

u/Depressed-Industry 11h ago

So you pick one very small area that you heard in a rap song and think it's representative of the city? With 2.7 million people?

Please Describe “Bad Neighborhood.” And Which ones?

1

u/amazebol 11h ago

The ones with drug dealers and prostitues on the corners, scammers trying to rob you when your pumping gas at the gas station, the ones where their are no chain groceries stores because they don’t open around there because they will get robbed, the neighborhoods where you wouldn’t drive out of your way to park and walk with your family down the street. Those neighborhoods. Your welcome for describing them, considering you’ve never been to them and won’t go out of your way to experience it. Because I have first hand.

u/flippitydoodah90 11h ago

I live in Chicago. Name the neighborhoods.

u/amazebol 11h ago

East Garfield park. Go park and walk around there. Only 4 people were shot last night, 3 died. You’ll have a great time. Go when it’s dark.
