@Lupmagic @thescorechicago @DavidHaugh You sound like someone who doesn’t run marathons. The average marathoner finishes in 4.5 hours; the final wave doesn’t start until 8:40am. Add in all the travel time, and you absolutely have a conflict with the Chicago marathon, whether you are cheering or running.

@RapSheet This is such a pain in the ass - it’s Chicago Marathon day week 5

@mikegallagher @cvspharmacy Blame the corporations that are too cheap to schedule multiple pharmacists at a time. The law requires a pharmacist on site at all open times so they go on lunch, the pharmacy closes.

@legen_eth Most weeks she lives in NYC Fri - Sun, and Washington DC Mon - Thu. Two high cost of living cities. It’s quite simple to understand.

@KatieMiller Ah yes, let’s take sexual health advice from a man who has cheated on multiple wives and doesn’t know the difference between ovarian and cervical cancer.

@stoolpresidente It hasn’t been correct for over 20 years. One space after a period is the norm.

@MomOfDDSquared @reighleyc I love my brother and plan to leave whatever’s left to his kids. But I’m certainly not planning my finances around that. His grown ass sister is not a “dependent.”

@DavePrichard My high school allowed athletes to take athletic weight training in lieu of normal gym class. It helped add to training for sports and was for the duration of the school year rather than just a season so I think that’s a better approach than team practice time.

@muheediva01 First apartment was in Urbana, IL in 2004 and was $1650 for a 5 bedroom that I split with 4 roommates.

First apartment in Chicago in 2007 and was $1200 for a 2 bedroom that I split with a roommate.

@frankmorano I’d argue that the bars and restaurants are getting a boost from the whack job media and Swifties that are standing outside the security zone hoping to catch a glimpse. More so than they would have during a heat wave and on a weekend MSG wouldn’t have had events.

@stoolpresidente Maybe mama wants those miles

@lucky_louie23 @Dzikhead Look I’m a Rahm hater, but considering who his brother is, getting this ticket was likely a family perk and not a political grift.

@NFL_DovKleiman Brett Favre…questionable human but very fun to watch

@cfcjoe6777 @RachelTrue Got in my way - no. There’s no real harm caused. Ran over my foot - yes. The harm caused is more analogous to what happened at BAFTA.

@Redhead4645 She didn’t fall. Maybe shit your pie hole if you don’t know the facts.
