Chicago is called the Windy City because a lot of square architecture has led to wind tunnels, but they also serve as an extra purpose of breaking up big winds and not allowing room for tornadoes to bloom.
In fact, many tornados also don't occur towards the south suburbs sometimes because Chicago just blocks all the lake Michigan wind.
I expect that almost makes up for living in a dystopian shitehole
you know you can get away with insulting a lot of things in this city, cause we're a liberal town, but don't insult the sausage
It's windy here alright, but I can't not make the correction that it was called the windy city because our politicians are all a buncha windbags!
