Sometimes I do walk up the escalator, and when I don't, I do stand to the side, but I honestly feel like if that bothers anyone...oh well. Sounds like a personal problem to me.

I don't care so much, but I also hate fat people, they always have some kind of problem...knees is one of the normal ones.
Come harder.

There's beauty in the solace of not giving a damn.

What the HELL is going on with the O'Hare branch of the Blue Line?
OK, WTF is going on with the O'Hare branch of the Blue Line? I thought they said all of the slow zones were fixed between Clark/Lake and Addison. There are now more and more slow zones such that during my ride from Irving Park today, the train did not travel at full speed during one single segment for the whole segment. It did get to full speed for a short burst during the Division to Chicago segment, and again just as it was approaching the Clark/Lake stop. Otherwise it just sort of coasted along or in some areas just crawled along. There were parts where I could have made better progress by riding on the back of a tree sloth. I know it wasn't just today because the trains are slowing down at the same spots every time. And they're not disclosing these slow zones on their most recent slow zone map either -- as far as they're telling us, everything is hunky-dory on the Blue Line until you get to Cumberland. Lying liars.

It was like that when I visited back in early June.. I thought they would've fixed that by now.
