Lol.

3.5% black is considered a "black neighborhood" now? How times have changed.

My friend taught me this at a bar on Saturday night. I was outside drunk singing it later on and a group of Poles walked by and started yelling too, haha.

Sto lat, sto lat,
Niech żyje, żyje nam.
Sto lat, sto lat,
Niech żyje, żyje nam,
Jeszcze raz, jeszcze raz, niech żyje, żyje nam,
Niech żyje nam!

lmao! According to Osito, it's a hard-core ghetto that (apparently this is synonymous with "ghetto" in his mind) has suddenly become majority black since the 2000 census.

Neighboring Beverly is way more diverse of course, but I wouldn't even call that majority black at the moment, based both on numbers and casual observation....

LOL, you should do stand-up! Now the South Side ghetto is 3% black!

Take a drive down 95th Street. Hmm, is the South Side 3% black like you claim, or overwhelmingly black like I claim?

No, Beverly isn't majority black; it's overwhelmingly black!

It's 2009, not 1969!

Wow, to hear Polish like that, you must have been way out in the sprawlburbs.

If you heard it on Milwaukee, it would go like this...


Estas son las mañanitas, que cantaba el Rey David,
Hoy por ser día de tu santo, te las cantamos a ti,
Despierta, mi bien, despierta, mira que ya amaneció,
Ya los pajarillos cantan, la luna ya se metió. Que linda está la mañana en que vengo a saludarte,
Venimos todos con gusto y placer a felicitarte,
Ya viene amaneciendo, ya la luz del día nos dio,
Levántate de mañana, mira que ya amaneció.

Dude, just shut up. It's obvious to anyone who is familiar with Chicago that you don't know a thing about it. Your certitude about all things Chicago is outdone only by your inaccuracy about all things Chicago.

Hahaha, now Osito is claiming that the whole city of Chicago is 95% black and all of the city is a ghetto!

Are you kidding me, Osito?

1.) Mount Greenwood = the entire South Side?

2.) Proof Osito?

No, I am willing to challenge Chicago homers with the truth (with citations), and you (and others) don't like that.

Except you cannot identify my alleged "inaccuracy".

In this thread alone, there are claims of Polish-speaking Mexicans, 3% blacks on the South Side, and great wealth on 95th street.

I am willing to tell the truth, and that obviously makes others uncomfortable!

Your "alleged" inaccuracies have already been identified and refuted by several others here and by me in a different thread. Adding denial to your repertoire of douchitude doesn't really help your case.

By the way, I happen to know a millionaire who lives just off of 95th Street. And it's a nice house.
