You live in a land of poo poo.

It isnt "cool". Stop living in loving fantasy land.

Youre not rap gangsters (who by the way are loving abhorrent people)

Youre not in some action film.

Youre in a loving garbage bin sucking dicks people threw out.

It's a wonderful city with some horrific parts. Running with the "Chiraq" theme, it's less like Baghdad and more like Greater Paris (under Chirac [this is a banlieue reference])

but gently caress Chicago; if you want to live in an urban area in the Midwest come to Minneapolis and not die

Pffft, a life free of the threat of death by both gangs and cops ain't a life worth living.

Chicago is awesome if you live 30 minutes away and can go there for very specific reasons.

That or if you hate cars and love the L. Then live there I guess. I'm not rich enough to live in any of the neighborhoods worth a drat so my opinion is skewed.

I've lived in the suburbs since I was 4, but I have been in and out of the neighborhoods from Marquette Park to Logan Square since I could drive. I've parked on the street overnight, walked at night alone, and never had a problem. I think you need to either a) not tremble like a chihuahua or b) just have an attitude that "lol, you can't rape the willing, motherfuckers".

It probably also helps that I drive lovely cars and never owned a pair of Air Jordans.

It's true. I don't want a hot dog sandwiched between a dumbass loving tomato or pickle. Likewise, Chicago pizza is akin to soaking a 8" tall pile of paper towels in oil and covering it in nasty ginzo sauce. Slimy, oily, gross fattening poo poo.

NY pizza supremacy. Zweigels supremacy.

Maybe I only think that because I don't know about your favorite pizza! I've only had Edwardo's/Giordano's and Uno's (Uno's is okay, but not as good as Edwardo's), never Gino's East or Lou Malnati's.

Don't kid yourself. Maybe the gangsters will kill each other, but the rich will be perfectly safe in their high-rise condos. I once saw a couple dozen police officers respond to a single mugging by Michigan and Randolph. Poor kid ran right past me - I saw a cellphone clutched in his hand. Two dozen cops to get a cellphone back! I can't imagine the response if some captain of industry's life was threatened.

Unless the pizza is cooked in a stone fired oven, it will always be a greasy fast food item.

It's so worth it to pay the extra 5 bucks or whatever, to get rid of papa johns, dominos, pizza hut, and the ilk.

Chicago is p cool and I like being sent there but I don't understand why anyone would relocate or get settled there. For pretty much the same cost of living you can live in the Northeast or California. The NE has all the cultural stuff Chicago has (except more and better), and so does California (with year-round nice weather). So it's not like HEY gently caress CHICAGO it's more like "oh ok chicago ya cool cya".

e: but then again I live in Boston which is also overpriced and thinks it's much cooler than it actually is so we're almost like Chicago's runt twin brother.
