Glass houses, professor. Glass houses.
Keep your sicko fantasies about 165 and I to yourself.
After many admonitions by [165] I've come to terms, even embraced, the lack of proper grammer [sic] on this board. Serenity now.

FYI: Tuman's is open again and has been annexed by the Lincoln Park crowd. For this, I shake my fist. They now serve food, too.
BTW: did'nt is spelled didn't

Yes, it interfered with his posengosity.
Crusty: 1) was your ride parked by the Xsport gym on saturday? 2) your thread has officially been taken over. :D

yeah, I lived right by there in Ukranian Village before rich whitey moved in all over the place. It's not gentrification, it is rich man's diarrhea. I grew really tired of all the 'new' construction. But I do miss those bars (Inner Town, Club Foot, Tumans, etc) that were in that area. ****ing goddam yuppies and their Crusade.
Tuman's looks all punk/hardcore kids to me. Didn't step in but it was all hoodies and all-stars. Club Foot is still going strong, still old school o n some night. Comparatively, the crap arse Darkroom that's just a little further west of Tuman's is ****e. They have an open non-raised, with get this - alcohol sitting low under a table.

Then maybe you have really left your mark on the possenger scene because I saw a ride that looked much like yours. As a matter of fact, it seemed to replicate much of the alterations evoked in this thread. I guess this means there are people following you, who is following the messengers. Does that make them posingposengers?

I don't remember complaining.
I offered brake (you were asking for dummy lever crap - figured you might throw a front brake on). You declined brake. I slept fine.
