Beer? We have that.


One, we have different microbrews than you, and many of them are awesome.

Two, if you aren't a beer snob and just want to get drunk, our beer is cheaper.

Also, the company is pretty great. What, we have to drive down to Chicago to hang out with you, but you won't come hang out in Milwaukee? I'm hurt. I feel like i'm putting more into this relationship than you are.

Which you are basing on your memories of a broken marriage and a town in which you didn't get to hang out by yourself while being legal age. Silliness!


what's in Milwaukee that's not in Chicago?
Beer? We have that. Pizza? We have that, but better.

Yeah, but I'll tell you what is in Chicago that ain't in Milwaukee: Some of the worst fucking traffic in the country.

I don't know how most of you sorry fuckers deal with that bullshit everyday to get to and from work. Unless you work odd hours that avoid rush hour or you actually live near your job.

I would not be willing to put up with Chicago traffic jam commutes and would therefore rather live in Milwaukee given the choice.

From what I gather of your post you hung out on mostly the East side, so yeah that is pretty much what you are going to run into there, the farther west you go the more random things get... (also the more dangerous things get)

Jesus is this the truth.

I'll come out and say this right here, because it's true: we've toured through Los Angeles and New York City, and the traffic in Chicago is by far worse than the traffic in either of those two cities. No friggin' lie.

Especially right now. Two hours to get through Chicago on I-94 West? Two hours? Fucking insanity.

I'm not sure if you mean the crime in Riverwest or the chance of picking up VDs in Riverwest.

I would gather both are true.

That's true. The last time I was there I had my bike and just kinda randomly rode around town all night. We went to a bar with a bowling ally in the basement and bras hanging from the ceiling. I don't remember the abnormally large number of abnormally large pale people being so evident.

We did kinda end up in Douchieville. The place we stayed was right on the lake and we tried to limit our expedition to places within walking distance.

There's always a way around it. You'd have to be a real yabbo to sit in that shit.

Seriously. Itchy brings dates up here. You got no excuse.

Chicagoans! Come on up to Milwaukee! Let's "bro-down" or some such!
