Hall of Fame linebacker Dick Butkus may have stopped playing for the Chicago Bears long before the technology even came around, but now that he’s been verified by Twitter, Chicago is stepping up and taking notice of his hilarious Tweets.

After months of trying to get that little blue check mark, he reached success just a few days ago:

Shortly thereafter, he called out a sworn enemy to the north 😂:

He also seems to be learning fast about the social influencer game:

He’s also been doing some analytics:

He also seems to be planning to dive more into other emerging technologies:

Dick Butkus is on Twitter. Get used to it.

Message received, good sir. Message received.

Eric Kristensen is a marginally famous regional celebrity with 101WKQX. You can follow him on Twitter — @erickristensen. He would greatly appreciate that.

Florida residents used Facebook rather than 9-1-1 to report crime: report

January 29, 2022 | Eric

The Pasco County Sheriff’s Office in Florida has turned off their social media comments for a curious reason: too many people were reporting crime there rather than calling 9-1-1 or submitting tips through their website.

Sheriff Chris Nosco said that the step was taking out of fear that the agency could miss out on “life or death” information.

So….just as a reminder…call 9-1-1 for emergencies. Don’t Tweet.

Bad dog! A woman’s dog plays in the oddest way…

January 28, 2022 | jnettlebeck

Huskies are a breed that are known for letting you know what they want. This one obviously wants food, but he’s going about it in the wrong way! That’s ASSault dude! I would slap my dog so hard! Or at least, AT LEAST, hit him with a “NO BEG.” Bad dog… but also hilarious.

She donated a kidney to him, then he cheated

January 28, 2022 | jnettlebeck

30-year-old Colleen loved her boyfriend so much that she donated a kidney to him. He would have died without it. That’s love right there! Then, after a successful surgery, he CHEATED on her 7 months later. BUT for some reason, this woman is an angel and took him back. All is well now, right? Nope. He THEN, broke up with her 3 months after she took him back. Ugh, know your worth girl! He didn’t deserve you! The one bright side? She’s a TikTok star now… you go Colleen!!

A local train Karen, tells everyone she’s too attractive

January 28, 2022 | jnettlebeck

A packed train discovered a Karen aboard immediately after she started spouting off against the guy sitting next to her. Apparently, a man sat his “fat, sloppy, body next to her” and was not happy about it. Then she went further and told him that he thinks he has the right to disrespect her because she’s an “attractive woman.” This comment, to be fair, had even the ladies on the train cracking up. It’s public transportation… people are going to sit next to you Karen, that’s part of the deal, you hot, sexy, lady you.

Matt Eberflus is your new Bears head coach

January 27, 2022 | jnettlebeck

PerAdam Schefter of ESPN, the Bears have hired former Colts defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus.

This ushers in a new era of Bears football, hopefully one that is less awful than all pervious eras.

Am I the Jerk?

January 27, 2022 | jnettlebeck

There is no bigger hot button issue in Chicago than parking etiquette. There’s a proud owner of a (relatively) new Subaru who has their own spin on how to secure a spot and secure some safety.

Are they a jerk? The conversation lives on Facebook!

When they put the pool in the wrong backyard, D’oh!

January 27, 2022 | jnettlebeck

The job has to get done if the homeowner is there or not! You’ve heard horror stories of roofs being put on the wrong house, things being painted incorrectly, and you can add this to that list! Some guys started digging a new pool- in the wrong backyard! Yikes! They hilariously ask the guy in the video if he wants one too. Too bad for them, he does not.

IF Larry David was commissioner of the NFL…

January 27, 2022 | jnettlebeck

IF LD was commissioner of the NFL, he would get rid of the goal posts. “Kickers are not football players.” He’s right, why do they get to decide the game? Leaping frogs would be a better option according to him. “You’re playing to score a touchdown and you’ll be the deserving winner, the old fashioned way.” He’s got other ideas too. But given that several playoff games were decided in a game winning FG over the weekend, maybe he has a point!

This will change the way that you wait in line at the club forever!

January 27, 2022 | jnettlebeck

You can waste a lot of time trying to get into a club. Sometimes they’ll even start a line right when you walk up, as if something amazing is inside when they just want to give the illusion that it’s THE place to be. But sometime, it’s not the place to be, there’s just a long line to trick you! This girl has figured it out though. Watch her video and take notes!

Whose Karen Is It?

January 26, 2022 | jnettlebeck

This Karen is taking “take a penny, leave a penny” to a new level. It’s…see a mess, take some groceries. But in her mind, it all makes sense.

Where is this economically sensible Karen from? The conversation lives on Facebook!

What?! You can be a next level spy using just your phone!

January 26, 2022 | jnettlebeck

Assuming that you have AirPods, you can use this crazy feature. It sounds illegal, but it’s not. You can listen to conversations when you’re not in the room if you leave your iPhone there. It will send the audio to your AirPods live. Now hopefully, you’ll never be in a situation where you need to do that. But- just so you know, it’s there… Here’s a step-by-step tutorial on how to do it, you little James Bond you.
