Natter 58: Let's call Venezuela!
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
But as soon as I heard about the possibility, "swallowed along with the rest of a human race in a black hole of our own making" immediately jumped into my top five ways to die ever. It is, as these things go, relatively quick, relatively mess-free, and is one of the few ways I can think of to die that will, eventually, cause an alien to exclaim "those crazy motherfuckers did WHAT?" Monuments crumble, technology rusts and decays, but a rip in the fabric of the space-time continuum? That shit is FOREVER.

Wow.
I was just guessing randomly, and then gave up....
More than 100 people mobbed the intersection of North Milwaukee and Damen Avenues around 9:15 a.m., jostling for position on the packed sidewalk after a conductor cleared the platform at the Damen stop. Some commuters sat for more than 30 minutes while a southbound train sat idle at the station.
The few taxicabs that passed through the intersection were already taken, prompting exasperated screams from those trying to get downtown.
That's the center of Wicker Park.
Exasperated screams, huh?
Good thing all those passengers weren't trapped in a train with a cougar....
fun Tommyrot!

Yeah, they had the intesection almost shut down around the Grand/Milwaukee stop about an hour ago. Cab driver said the problem started around Division, so whatever it is, it's growing.
Wow. I thought I was pretty hot with 13 out of 34.
I got the first 5 right just off the bat. I thought I could do no wrong.
Then the Font Game schooled me in how deluded I was.
Well, they're turning Southbound trains around at the Damen stop and sending them back North to O'Hare, so now that's where everyone has to get off....
