Chicago MMXII

Was looking for something and found this

Jenny, if I crawled inside of you and played fetus, would you abort me?

With relish.

I would abort you with relish. It is a new technique that they are using in Bolivia.

Is that recent?

His turn as a jr date rape wannabe/giant tool in his post-AD movies have made me pretty much indifferent to him as an actor.

I don't think I want to. Holding out for that being a look he cultivated for a 30-second tossed off joke in the Arrested Development movie.

people say he bears resemblance to Chicago Fire captain Logan Pause

Yes.

Things I noticed about that picture:
* his hands
* his foot placement/stance
* chambray shirt
* all the other things you probably noticed about that picture

Thinking specifically of Superbad and the comic book one where he dates a high schooler and then falls in love with a MPDG on roller skates. xp to self

huh, never heard the term MPDG before, that's apt

Guys, sorry for being obnoxious but I'm drinking an iced coffee outside. It is beautiful here.

Where? Are you still in Hotlanta?

I just got here!

I can't believe you said hotlanta.

This area where I'm staying is pretty boring though, all hotels and chain restaurants. If that makes you feel better.

I'll say it again: Hotlanta.

Friendship: off

Where are you staying, Nick?

Buckhead?

Yeah.

Are you near the train? You could go to Little Five Points and look at things.

Heed this MARTA man's advice:

Oh, look. That gif contains multitudes.

I'm not really going to have much free time. I'm just going to enjoy my free fancy hotel room and decent weather.

You know what's great? These things!

Not necessarily that brand, but egg rings in general, and especially the silicone ones.

I eat two eggs at a time. I think the system is failing us.

THEY COME IN TWO PACKS AT OUR LOCAL TJ MAXX!

If I can summon the energy to put on pants, I'm going to go run some errands buy two more while I'm out.

You can't cook an egg w/out a ring? What's the matter with you?

Phatlanta

I forget to whom I made the fairly shameful confession that I'm probably going to wind up buying this product

I can cook an egg without a ring! But it's so much better in a ring, especially since most of my eggs go on English muffins.

We eat a lot of eggs. Eggs are the life fruit.

I cannot poach an egg so the poachers are a little more appealing. Jesse did you know you can make an omelette in a ziplock bag?

xp - no, what? Tell me more.

those aren't egg poachers, they're OUT-OF-SHELL hard boiled egg devices!

The Horrors part of the commercial could be better, but still

Haha peeling all night!

Bookmarked, ty!

Crack no more than two eggs (large or x-large) into each bag and shake to combine.

Like hell.

May could get crazy:

Je55e, is this your old building? http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/chi-city-to-go-to-court-on-lincoln-park-highrise-without-heat-hot-water-20120126,0,6733131.story

That's where I used to live! So glad I'm not there now! That's some shit. The property mgmt company is generally OK AFAICT, but I'd be pissed at them if I still lived there.

EZ, I'm sure this spring in Chicago will be very interesting. And a mess.

Hmm. The douchebee gay-right-winger (Palin groupie) property manager seems to have deleted his FB profile? I unblocked him, but now I can't even find him on a search when I'm logged out.

I was hoping to see his opinions on the City's intervention. He despises "our Democrat overlords," as he called them when IL passed a law making landlords change or re-key locks between tenants.

"This isn't Elizabethan England," said Fr@ncisco Ben@vid3s, 32. "There is no way I'm going to heat up water and take it to the tub."

I LOLed.

Also this: "According to the city Buildings Department, the building is among many built before 1975 that is not in compliance with updated fire safety codes and has yet to submit a fire safety plan that lays out how it plans to comply" is really scary. That recent fire in the apartment building on LSD in which the woman was killed in the elevator didn't have sprinklers and was pretty much a giant death trap.

The manager of that property is kind of gruff, so I'm not surprised that in the (raw) video, the reporter who was not being let into the building said "these people are hostile when they come out." She's not the best public face for them. But you know, just like a strident lesbian.

She probably goes to anti-abortion rallies.

one of my former UCP colleagues lives in that building, fb indicates she is not happy with the situation

since i have been known to post pictures of terry gross, what do you think of her new look

Lol are you asking bc she's flipping the bird?

Amanda as I was perusing old ChILX threads yesterday I found a series of posts of you soothing me by pretending to be Terri Gross.

So you know how I was bragging about my iced coffee yesterday? I went to bed at midnight and didn't fall asleep until about 3. And I had to get up at 6:30. Karma.
