In my previous blog, I complained about bitches who dont say thank you when I open the door for them. It took a while to learn its a south side thing. I got more thank yous from my fellow southsiders than northsiders. Scott Podsednik for the World Champion White Sox broke down the mentality very simple when describing why Cubs fans are hating on the Sox. "Northsiders are uppity" And I have to agree, many have a bourgeois mentality. You have to consider not only is chicago one of the most segregated cities in america (most blacks live on the south side while whites live on the north) the north side is also upper middle class as well. Most black men who are born and raised here like myself see moving to the north as a major goal with the theme song of the Jeffersons running through our heads. The job field is also divided, the north side contains the majority of white collar work next to downtown while the south side is built on blue. It's definely hell for me to drive from the south side to the north but its what I gotta do. What kills me more is how the kids in the north burbs "overthug" themselves to make up for them living in a good part of the city. Anyway considering i believe i have the most but not all the north down do i do as the romans do, or bring along my positivity regardless of how im treated. If anything best believe one day i'll finally get that piece of the Piiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeeeee...

I do not believe there is a pie from which to get a piece, one of the great distractions of this world.
