technically sure, but nobody outside metro Chicago cares. -- nm - mafic Jun 26, 17:23 16
- Correction: no one outside the city limits cares. - spamlet 🤦🏻‍♂️ Jun 26, 17:42 3
  - I care. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Jun 26, 18:04
  - Aurora is Illinois's second biggest city. Naperville is next door to it. -- nm - . Jun 26, 17:57
  - same in a lot of metro areas, I imagine. I know Vancouver and Toronto were like that. - mafic Jun 26, 17:48
- Still lazy. Will be interesting when they refer to Kenosha, a suburb of Milwaukee, as Chicago. -- nm - . Jun 26, 17:37 11
  - Kenosha isn't a suburb. Racine, maybe. Kenosha is just a city along the lake that used to make cars and underwear. -- nm - zunk takes things literally Jun 26, 18:40 1
    - Kenosha is considered part of the larger Chicago Metropolitan area and a suburbish of Milwaukee. -- nm - . Jun 26, 18:57
  - Everyone knows the Kenosha Kickers. Their big hit Polka Polka Polka -- nm - zeitgeist Jun 26, 18:08 2
    - Polka Twist is a classic from them. :-) -- nm - Krusty Jun 26, 21:31 1
      - they sold some 600 copies... -- nm - zeitgeist Jun 27, 14:02
  - Milwaukee's a suburb of Chicago. -- nm - mafic Jun 26, 17:38 5
    - Nope. Milwaukee is a completely different city. -- nm - . Jun 26, 17:52 4
      - or so they'd have you believe. -- nm - mafic Jun 26, 17:54 3
        
        No, Milwaukee is very much a different city. Different attitude, different culture. -- nm - . Jun 26, 17:58 2
        
        next you'll tell me Gary Indiana is a real place. -- nm - mafic Jun 26, 18:10 1
        
        I'm not sure people in Gary believe that. -- nm - . Jun 26, 18:15
