Poop Talk on Facebook Chat with Jen and Stacey
Jennifer: I think one of the weirdest pieces of workplace psychology is the workpoop. I just went to pee, and someone like, hid out in their stall until I left
Stacey: HA
Jennifer: Like they didn't want anyone to know that they were in there pooping.
Stacey: "NO ONE CAN KNOW THAT I POOP. NO ONE. IT IS A TOTAL SECRET."
Jennifer: That happens all the time. Or like, this one lady will hang out at the mirror, waiting for people to leave and then go into a stall.
Stacey: Ha! I also like that you have all the "secret work poopers" pegged.
Jennifer: I just think it's funny, because everyone has to poop at some point but people act like it's some terrible offense if you do it at work.
Stacey: Well, no one wants to be known as "that bitch who stunk up the bathroom and clogged the toilet".

Hey bike kids...
Or kids who want to be bike kids…
Here are TWO links to TWO guys in Chicago (one’s in Ukrainian Village and the other’s in Humboldt Park) who build/restore/fix bikes and make them snazzy and awesome. One (DB) I can personally recommend because I bought my bike from him and the other (Cog) I just learned of yesterday but the quality/workmanship looks pretty comparable.
