Unpopular opinion; No one - literally not a soul - actually enjoys the taste of beer. Not a single human. Those who claim to enjoy beer, don’t actually. It’s really just a social ritual, a form of self deception… the impact of decades of stacked marketing to convince you that beer is anything but an alcohol delivery mechanism. You can enjoy getting sloshed. You can enjoy the social liberation that alcohol offers. You can enjoy the party. But don’t act like you actually like the taste of beer. You don’t. You might think you do. But you don’t. Because it tastes like it looks: bitter dehydrated piss, with bubbles. In the case of Guinness, like diarrhea, with bubbles. And you know it.
Ditka dies on Friday, White Sox are reverse swept on Saturday, the Bears lay an egg in Lambeau Sunday, and now the Pope has cancer. Hard not to take personally
You walk into a coffee shop in Oak Lawn and see 4 White Sox jerseys. The Jewel is a sea of Sox wear. Most Holy Redeemer Catholic school is out of uniform only if you wear Sox gear. St Xavier baseball moved practice today so they could watch together.
The South Side is alive.
