In years past HandsomeHwang and I would make the 45 minute drive out to Naperville to visit in promise of “naperthrills.” Well, each of those visits have always resulted in us either getting lost somewhere, or being clearly misled with the degree of “thrills” that were promised. The thrill-to-distance-traveled ratio was severely skewed. Funny thing is that we kept going back thinking, maybe this time would be better, only to result in us driving back to the glorious north suburbs at top speed yelling “NAPERVILLE STINKS!!” out the window.
And now, it has been confirmed.
Naperville Stinks; Officials Don’t Know WhyNAPERVILLE, Ill. — Naperville and portions of Aurora, Glen Ellyn and Oswego as well as towns as far east as Evergreen Park and Oak Lawn — stink, and no one seems able to figure out why.
I’ll tell you why, it’s cause North Suburbs>Naperville.
Just jokes folks. Naperville isn’t that bad.
But seriously, you guys. Take a shower or something.

yea yea ok those wings were pretty good…and jerrys send off was pretty good too…but id like to think that it was north suburbs that get credit for the sardines in meijers idea…. either way wings were good but im not sure if they are worth the drive. maybe if we won a lobster it would make for a totally different experience. i mean…lobster for 2 bucks!? but as far as im concerned at the moment…u guys need to figure out that stench before i come back

I concur. Two thumbs way up! Even though I am reading this years later, that’s how you know it’s true – when it still applies long after the fact.
