Cracker (about crime reports on EveryBlock): well what do you expect when you let "those people" walk around free? Of course I can't say that word because of the PC police.
Innocent Tyrone: golly what word?
Cracker: oh we all know who's responsible for all the violent crime...
Innocent Tyrone: ...oh! Men!
Cracker: no! No!
Innocent Tyrone: oh don't be shy I agree with you! Men are responsible for virtually all violent crime! You're so brave to battle the PC police and make sure we all know who "they" are!
Cracker: that's not what I said!
Innocent Tyrone: don't be bashful we need to stand up to them! What are you thinking? Registries for all men? Camps? Tracking bracelets?
Anybody else ever spend time on EveryBlock? I love the idea, the aggregation is good, and it covers the whole city down to specific neighborhoods.
My question is: will some other Chicagoans who aren’t frightened racist armchair reactionaries please contribute to community discussions? I think this site could be a useful source of information and community organization, but not if a small cadre of crackers dominate every conversation.
Listen up, you inquisitive members of society! We’ve got a mystery for you. Nine years ago, a Denver Post restaurant critic wrote a piece about his negative experiences at different local establishments (and they sound very negative, or at the very least he sounds kinda bitchy).
In it, he gives general descriptions of the restaurants and the names a few neighborhoods. A Washington Park bakery that serves burnt coffee. A Capitol Hill restaurant with an odd host station screensaver. A beautifully designed Northern Stapleton restaurant that likes to close up early.
Here’s the challenge: Restaurant critic Tucker Shaw never revealed where exactly these restaurants are. It’s a total mystery as to which restaurants he was critiquing. But, nearly ten years later, we want to find out. Like, really badly.
Do you live in those neighborhoods? Do you know what restaurants Tucker Shaw is talking about? Have you been there? Have you had a similar experience?
Do any of these restaurants exist anymore? I mean, it’s been nine years, chances are if these experiences are that bad then I can’t imagine they’ve lasted terribly wrong. Then again, you never know.
…Or do you?
If you do know these restaurants and you want to play this little guessing game, or if you know what neighborhood these poor excuses for eating establishments reside in, you should head on over to EveryBlock, a forum for neighborhood news. You really couldn’t ask for a better public forum to gab about your neighborhood establishment and how they made you wait for 15 minutes before even asking if you want a drink.
Or you could even post about your own terrible restaurant experiences! Get in touch with your neighbors and gossip about having burnt coffee, being told not to order sushi when it’s on the menu or waiting an absurd amount of time for a cocktail.
Well, what are you waiting for? Get cracking, little Sherlock Holmes-wannabes!
A call to peace and understanding - Let's remember Charleston, let's think of how to avoid this locally
Dear friends as I went to bed last night and I mourned the death of one of my dearest friends many thoughts passed thru my tired mind, Charleston(Which I was a resident during my time in the Navy) Humboldt Park, Riot Fest, Puerto Rico and my dear friend Benjamin. I want to say that I have a troubled spirit and spent many restless hours thinking. I finally asked The Lord Jesus through his Holy…
Very cool - I'm going to be checking this out ASAP but this sounds a lot like BuzzData which closed last year. There's also touches of the old EveryBlock, also closed for some time.
