Holy shit, you better be careful Nish.

One of these days we're going to be playing never have I ever again.


I hope to actually participate a bit longer and hopefully with something better than 8 month old chocolate Sam Adams.

Quote from Nish
The big silver bean (officially known as Cloud gate) was created by Indian sculptor Anish Kapoor who's niece I once went to second base with.


I could've sworn India had a population of, like, several people. And yet the one time anyone on SP posts a picture of a sculpture by an Indian, you've made a move on one of his female relatives. The only logical conclusion is that Nish has had relations with most of the girls in Asia.

Who was the other one? You're also forgetting India has a LOT of poor people, but only a few elite social circles.

Hey dudes.
I got back recently from a trip to Chicago. I took a shit ton of photos over there, and it's a cool place.

I also took this cool photo when we were on top of the Sears Tower.

And here's the big silver bean. The place was always crowded.

It looks like you visited my home town... How did you like it?...I mean I honestly can't stand living in Chicago for so many reasons it's not even funny... Please tell me you didn't visit Navy Pier... It's a tourist trap that has nothing there at all... I been there for small events and field trips and still find that nothing is there at all... Plus I'm not sure if it's because I'm from the city that I can't find much to do in Chicago but I don't think there is much to do here besides the night life

Actually, there were a couple of stuff my mom was disappointed with, like how the staff on top of the sears tower seemed bored as fuck.
The museums were pretty cool though. The Science Museum was by far the most interesting.
But I know what you mean. It's like how the Alamo is San Antonio started to become less interesting as I started living over there.

We were gonna visit Navy Pier, but walking all the way over there would've taken a really long time.

Anyway, in the field museum over there, they have the only tyrannosaurus model ever to be 90% complete.
Since the head was so heavy (weighing more than a ton) they had to make a lighter replica to complete the model.

It's awesome to look at.

The beaches are plenty of fun too, and the food is worth a visit on its own. Plus an incredible music scene, especially compared to the surrounding areas.

I live about an hour west of Chicago, but it's still a novelty going downtown. Always a great time.

I can't work out whether or not that city's pretty. On the one hand I quite like the effect you get from so many buildings of that height (although I'm not so sure I'd like it from the ground), but on the other hand it looks so grey and concrete.


It really depends on which part you're in, most of the touristy stuff is by the lakefront and it's a beautiful area to walk around in with plenty of public art and displays. Then there's other parts near the south side that I felt very uncomfortable driving through when I was younger.

Oh yeah, the food over there is pretty good. They also have the best pizza I've ever had.
They restaurants are always super-packed.

It's kind of like that in Lafayette, Louisiana too. There's the one part of town that seems cool with the Hub City Diner and all, but the other side is pretty intimidating.
You can also get into a bad situation over there if you don't follow what you're doing.
Like when I was little and I was staring at this guy because his car looked cool, then it seemed like he was whispering threats at me.

It's funny I live in the south side... The west side of Chicago I don't feel comfortable around... Ironic it seems to me... But I can already tell which parts of the south side you would feel uncomfortable around because I know to stay away from certain places at night


Devi you look way to happy in that picture...

Happiness is life and happiness is death.
Happiness is sin and happiness is virtue.
But happiness is never too much.

:)

I tend to look like that in public, its a good way of saying "fuck off" to other people.
Also another perk being that I give kids nightmares.

I will first come out and say I'm glad you give kids nightmares... That is an achievement in life that you have earned

The other thing is I really feel happiness just got a new meaning from the beginning of what you said
