Chicago doesn't like me. Something bad has happened to me everytime I've gone there. I mean, I lived in the suburbs for three months and every trip into the city was like asking fate to destroy me.

Your problem is that you lived in the suburbs.
The city doesn't like you people.
The first time I passed through Chicago, before I came anywhere close to living there, our car died on the freeway, forcing us to exit on the southside.
stupid tourists, not being familiar with a place they've never been to
I don't mind answering tourists stupid questions
Let's me pretend I'm intelligent
What does piss me off about tourists is the walking along, not unlike a pre-schooler, looking in every direction except the one they're headed in
It's especially frustrating when they drive that way

yeah, to be fair I am puzzled by how most tourists approach an area they're visiting
when I go somewhere I like to get off the beaten path and get a better sense of what makes that place and it's people unique instead of seeing the usual tourist hotspots
though sometimes they actually are worth seeing, but usually not

and doing that normally causes them to weave down the sidewalk so you can't get around the fuckers.
I don't mind answering questions where stuff is, but when you can see where you want to go, you shouldn't need to ask for directions.

Spent my whole life in the city, where the junk is king and the air smells shitty.
People puking everywhere, piles of blood, scabs and hair.
Bodies wasting with disease, people dying on the streets.
Suburban scumbags? They don't care. They just get fat and dye their hair.

At least when I make a thread with this same exact title down the road, you know I won't be a lying sonofabitch
All getting in your way. Standing in the middle of the sidewalk for no apparent reason.
Asking you where the Sears Tower is, when you can just look up and fucking see where it is.
If you like all the traffic, crime, and corruption Chicago offers and none of the cool stuff DC is okay I guess.
The city doesn't like you people.
How dare they.

None of the cool stuff? You're just being facetious now, right?

DC is a gentrified Baltimore.

ONE GREAT CITY!
there are free museums and a free zoo, perfect for broke college students

Ok you've got some monuments and a bunch of politicians that are better off dead. What else? Also you are really close to Baltimore.

Yeah, that is fucking awesome and worth it and I can go see those anytime I want. But to LIVE in DC is a different story.
I know people that live in DC proper, they do not approve. The history thing wears thin after 6-8 months.

the two days I spent in london last october cost me what I would spend in an expensive week in d.c.
I can never tell if people are being silly when they say this.
I am near London. Where the streets are paved with gold. Gold bought with the fucking life savings it costs to buy anything. Like a sandwhich.

Oh, to live there
Yeah, that would suck
