Chicago

Chicago has many nicknames like the Second City (to New York), City of Big Shoulders and the Windy City. The weather sucks; it's sweltering in the summer and below zero most of the winter. The central business district (downtown) is called the Loop because the El encompasses it. Ethnic groups are spread nearly evenly throughout the city, except for the west side, which is mostly African American. We have two airports, two baseball teams, a corrupt local government and a lot of people from southern Illinois who are jealous of us. Contrary to popular belief (as seen above) the north side is not all white and the south side is not all black. Kanye West & the Smashing Pumpkins are two artists from Chicago.

Chicago is inaccurately misrepresented in this "URBAN DICTIONARY" thus far.

Chicago

Greatest place in the Midwest. A place where the street gangs are actually home grown unlike New York. No Bloods and Crips here, just Peoples and Folks. There are three sides, North, South, and West. The South Side is divided into Southwest and Southeast depending on the Dan Ryan Expressway. The North Side gets a rep for pussy ass white yuppies. The South Side and West Side is the real city aside from fancy skyscrapers you hear about. Chicago is a place dick ridden by people from Milwaukee, Indiana, Detroit, and most of all downstate. True capital of Illinois, home to the Sears Tower and birthplace of skyscrapers and the tallest buildings in the world.

People in Detroit don't like Chicago, because we actually have something to appeal to tourist. Many wannabe Chicago's in the Midwest, but there's only one.

west side chicago

The part of Chicago that gets the least media coverage mostly through television and film, unlike South Side Chicago, the North Side of town and of course, the Loop in downtown for some reason.

Movies on the South Side Chicago: Barbershop parts 1 & 2. Big Shots (a 1987 movie in South Side of town where a boy gets jumped by 2 punks in the beginning of the movie.) Save The Last Dance (2001) where a young ballerina moves in with her dad on, yes, you guessed it, on the South Side. I never see movies that happen on the west side of Chicago. Yes, the west side Chicago is of urban decay, but so is the south side.

chicago rosette

When a carpenter is hammering a nail into some wood and the head of his hammer misses the nail and hits the surrounding wood, it makes a small depression there in the shape of the hammer head. That is a Chicago Rosette.

1) Careful on that last piece of oak there boys, we don't want the customer seeing any Chicago Rosettes.

2) Who's the dumbshit who left a Chicago Rosette on that moulding?!
