you know the boner party is over when Robin Williams shows up.
when did he start showing up to one of my old bars in Chicago? when the fuck did Robin Williams go Chicago Hipster on us? when the fuck did that happen? did he go to the ‘get out of the hood’ Flosstradamus shows? did he tell people “yeah i know Curt and Josh” but when in reality he didn’t? did he used to sit in Filter and order the awfully bad drip coffee and smoke cigarettes (while you still could)? did he “hate Johnny Love” (as was the fashion at the time)? was he a Columbia kid or an Art Institute Kid? did he go to Heaven Gallery back in the day when it was still cool? did he declare Wicker Park “totally over” and then move to Logan Square (or god forbid, Pilsen)? did he date a Suicide Girl back in the day when that used to “mean something”?
lots of chicago hipster references for you all.
Okay, so I know all of those references. Don’t I feel special? Not really, probably because a lot of them are all gone now :( Like Wicker Park, which is beyond “totally over” and now bordering on Lincoln Park levels. There is a Marc by Marc Jacobs store on Damen.
Think about it.
Also, Filter is gone, replaced with a Bank of America.
Think about it :(
(Not even something like Chase, which is kinda more local, but not really.)
Wait, Filter is Gone?!!? When the hell did that happen?
