As the year comes to an end, worth reflecting on the many ways Americans totally won 2024. 🇺🇸🇺🇸

A couple of examples: 🧵

Oh, now it’s delayed. Great. Last three days trains have been delayed or having huge breaks. This is insane

[Nick Conant @drkshdupnrth]

@cta
You realize it’s rush hour and you don’t have El trains running for a 36 minute break. It isn’t the metra. This sucks.

[Nick Conant @drkshdupnrth]

@GregHinz @cta I took the redline home after Saturday’s Sox game, a women got off on a platform in the loop, dropped her pants and took a massive piss right outside the train doors. Then screamed at the people on the train. Next stop, a strung out guy just lit up a cig and smoked away.

@ChiPublicHealth Why wasn't the Chicago Covid Dashboard updated yesterday? Still showing Friday's data.

1/12 We - Russia - want to be a nation of peace. Alas, few people would call us that now.

[Nick Conant @drkshdupnrth]

@amyjo7777 @Delta Yes. We selected seats. Very annoying. This has happened to us twice.

[Nick Conant @drkshdupnrth]

@Delta split my family up. Said I should just ask passengers to switch so 3-year old can sit by mom. Tell the Department of Transportation there shouldn’t be a penalty for wanting to sit with your family. https://t.co/vugYmoIuSN

Update. They got us together, 2 and 2. They asked someone to move into the exit row. I was told that “many families were separated.” I’m watching families trying to get near each other. This needs a DOT fix.

[Nick Conant @drkshdupnrth]

For the record. We booked main class and had selected our seats. They then changed them unannounced. They then said they can’t just change other peoples’ seats. Even though they had done that to me.

“We’ve tested this hypothesis over and over. Given lots of kids cell phones. Given lots of kids cocaine. Just a gram each though, for safety purposes. The results are indisputable.”

@matthewjwille Porky’s is on Amazon prime.

[Chicago Teachers Union @CTULocal1]

Richard knows how this works. Or at least he should. We're not the boss. A union cannot put a mandate in place without agreement from the boss, and we cannot support something that the mayor and her team have refused to put on the table.

@GalenRoehl @VolbeckWasRight @Josh_Finestone Nonsense. American classic

[Nick Conant @drkshdupnrth]

@VolbeckWasRight @Josh_Finestone I reviewed this movie in college for the local newspaper: “The problem with this scenario is that Van Wilder bottoms out at the level at which I aspire to peak. To become a party planner who is chased by a beautiful school journalist is all I want out of life.”

[Nick Conant @drkshdupnrth]

@adamcarolla rewatching Master and Commander. The fact there is no sequel is a travesty to man kind.

[Nick Conant @drkshdupnrth]

@NateSilver538 Huge pet peeve of mine. I'm departing out of Chicago and everyone keeps their windows down. Doesn't anyone want to see the world anymore.

[Nick Conant @drkshdupnrth]

First the baby boomers steal our money with inflated benefits, now they’re keeping all the championships.

[Matt Viser @mviser]

This year has seen the oldest president take office (Joe Biden), the oldest quarterback win a Super Bowl (Tom Brady), and the oldest golfer to win a major PGA championship (Phil Mickelson)

[Nick Conant @drkshdupnrth]

@business Wait until they find out about our government debt.
