Chilling Story of Woman Being “Hunted” at Target

A mother of two young children recently shared a chilling story of her getting “hunted” at a Target and she wants to raise awareness so that this situation doesn’t happen to other people. She noted while she was shopping that, “She began picking random aisles and walking around in an unorganized fashion, and every time, one of the three men would pass by her, making their presence known.”

The woman continued, “What I saw as I exited the store made me so sick to my stomach, solidifying all of my suspicions,” she said. “A white windowless van was parked in the lot directly behind my car … one of the men seated in the driver’s seat and the other two leaning against the side of the van facing my car attempting to hide out of view.”

Be safe, stay vigilant, Chicago.

Did Your Youth Sports Team Do Something Shady?

The 2014 Little League US Champions, exports from Morgan Park, have finally reached an end to their seven-year-long scandal. The manager and one assistant manager were accused of blurring residency lines and requirements. After the case was dismissed on Tuesday, the two coaches stood at a church just a few blocks away from the field where they played and proclaimed their “exoneration.” You know, normal Little League stuff.

Billie Joe Armstrong releasing new Audible Original series “Welcome To My Panic”

Songwriters don’t always like talking about the meanings of their songs, but that’s all Green Day frontman Billie Joe Armstrong does on his new Audible Original series, Welcome To My Panic.

He tells Billboard that the series, which also features re-recordings of some hits, shows “the history of where my head was at, what’s changed and what hasn’t changed.” One of his deep dives takes on “Wake Me Up When September Ends,” about which he says, “I think of [September] as being the new year in a lot of ways, especially [because kids are] back to school.”

Armstrong adds, “Sometimes you lose touch with people that you’re actually close to for two, three months because of summer vacation, and then you see them later and you’re like, ‘Oh my God, you look like a different person right now.’ It takes one summer to become a full-on punk rocker.”

Warning: Millennials Are Officially Old Now

After being the scapegoat for literally everything over the past decade – from being the reason for Hooters and their financial woes to liking avocado toast too much, millennials have officially evolved into the next stage of their journey. A recent Reddit thread has millennials sharing the moment they knew that they were getting old. The comments range from “Not something I said but I just stood out on my porch this morning drinking my coffee and someone drove by pretty fast and I thought “that’s way too fast” to “Had a riveting conversation with some friends about the best office chairs for lumbar support.”
