foxinsnow's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- why I hate Wilmette Just some background: Wilmette is one of the primarily white racist suburbs north of Chicago that comprise the North Shore. Despite all their money, most Wilmette (or "Thrill-" mette) residents know nothing about fine art and spend all their money on crappy pseudo- "abstract" garden sculptures and watercolors of trees. Charlie's Coffee Shop, for example (see previous entry "BOYCOTT CHARLIE'S COFFEESHOP IN WILMETTE, IL")advertises itself as "a place where friends can enjoy good drink (ie, not booze) and fine art" (ie, watercolors of trees, which I saw when I looked in the place while he was harrassing me). Anyway. The thing I really hate about Thrillmette is that everyone cops these big, "looking-out-for-number-one," big city (ie, chicago) attitudes when, guess what, crackas, we are NOT in a big city, we are a cushy, racist suburb that chooses to legally call itself a village (ie, the Village of Thrillmette). What really tuned me in to all this hatred of Thrillmette was Charlie and his submoronic coffeeshop, and all the dumb blonde preppy ex-cheerleader SUV-moms who live here. To quote Lou Reed, "you can all go take a walk." 6:15 p.m. - 2004-08-23 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
