Silly Sort
I ran across this comment on a Chicago discussion forum:
"I live on what is technically 'the west side' being that i live in ukrainian village/east village area, but most people seem to think that is the north-side and I don't feel like giving a chicago geography lesson everytime someone asks where I live, nor do I want to seem to be one of those silly sorts claiming any supposed 'street cred' from living on the west side, seriously, have you seen this neighborhood, it is about as gentrified as it gets in my opinion."
Given that I've been fashioning myself as a resident of the Great West Side lately, does that mean I'm a silly sort attempting to gain street cred?
Egad!
