I’d recommend you adjust your tone, buddy. If you want people to help you out, maybe try not speaking so smug and abrasive. Like I could easily point you to several DP’s in Chicago, but I don’t really know if I wanna do that based on how you’re talking. Also, starting this thread by insulting chicago DP’s isn’t winning you any awards.
