Chicago Miscers, how does this travel restriction work?

Or anyone that has recently been to chicago.



Thinking about visiting my best buddy in chicago for an extended weekend, how is this travel restriction inforced?

Was thinking of making a thurs to sun trip. Should I just not buy round trip tickets and just book two one-ways from different airlines?

I live florida and its on Lori Lightfoot's travel 2 week quarantine list.

I'd just get a one way ticket, then if you survive the weekend... Get your return ticket. Wouldn't want you paying and taking what little you have left that would be going to your family. Think of your family.

yea my buddy moved there for work too.

Despite it being a big city he said the level of girls attractiveness is definitely lower than what we're used to in florida.

Also hes been tricked when bringing girls home after a night out during the colder times of the year due to their clothing layers. Concealed their bloat.

And that the attractive girls come out of the woodwork during the summer and vanish in the winter.

First thing I noticed when I got here was the mid-western girls are a lot uglier.

And that's true - being summer all year round keeps people honest in Florida.

In the midwest you're layered up half the year - great bulking weather though lol

Don't worry about the round trip thing, and don't worry about the L. You should be fine.

Do bring a mask and wear it on your face.

Yeah, Chicagoans get a little chunky in the winter.

One of my friends had to do a 9 month training in Minnesota. If you ask him how it was the first thing he mentions is how disappointing the women were. I noticed the same thing in Colorado. There are still some damn good looking women but the average is noticeably worse. I think cold weather is the reason since Arizona and California don't have this problem

Or you got duped into that Timmy idea that "hurr durr, aLl TeH hOt GiRLz R iN tEh CiTy".

Granted I'm not in the city all the time but I very rarely see any chicks that are THAT hot where I feel it's notable.

^^^Racist police officer who also cries about how racism doesn't exist, also cries reverse racism and typifies the stupidity of the racist right, referring to black people as "they" and regurgitating racist stereotypes.

I had zero expectations when I moved here and wasn't even single at the time but it was definitely a contrast

good to know, I appreciate it.

Gonna start looking for airline tickets, theyve been dirt cheap. My buddy has been harassing me to visit and now flights are like $50.

And I dont want to freeze my butt off so nows the time to go.

Depends....are you landing in O'Hare? then you're fine. All the ghetto urban youth are on the south and west sides by Midway.

They don't enforce the travel restriction.

What area does your friend live in?

They don't do anything about it. A bunch of my buddies over the past couple weeks went on vacation to florida or california, came back, and lived their life again.

It's all fear mongering.
