78-year-old Shirley Webb can deadlift 225lbs like it’s nothing!
We’ve all been there: You’re camped out on the couch with your laptop, a cornucopia of snacks, and a silenced smartphone. You get several episodes into a full-season Netflix binge session and then … a message pops up to ask if you’re still watching. It takes five seconds to click yes, but that’s five seconds you can’t get back! To banish this pesky question for good, The Next Web has shared an easy fix: the Flix Assist Google Chrome extension. (READ MORE HERE)Â
It’s not the 5 seconds that I care about. 90% of the time if I’m cleaning my apartment I’ll put on a marathon of 30 Rock or Parks and Recreation. When the “Are You Still There?” prompt appears the yes button usually is not available on my phone app which I originally started watching on my TV through Chromecast. I then have to restart another episode manually then pause it  to go back the episode I was on to continue. THAT’S the annoying part. If there’s a hack to fix this on Hulu, Netflix, HBO NOW and YouTube I’m all ears…Or eyes. Whichever is the best way to fix this bug in all of these apps!! – @marconibologna

So what if she gets blasted in the face bay a soccer ball? She got some great footage.
For the first time in 16 years James Iha, Billy Corgan, and Jimmy Chamberlin shared the stage. It happened during The Pumpkins’ L.A. show. Consequence of Sound has more HERE.
Obviously, a lot of crowd video made it’s way out. Here’s “Mayonaise.”

The pizza squirrel supposedly was seen scurrying out of an alley and up a tree in Ukranian Village Friday, according to a DNAInfo report, holding our favorite hangover snack—a slice of cold pepperoni pizza. (READ MORE HERE)
The photo was posted to twitter by Melissa Mcewen who is now my favorite person on earth. I really hope someone gets video soon or it will make this sighting harder to believe, but this really is the greatest thing to happen this week and my nonna turned 90 on Tuesday!! – @marconibologna
Jake Bugg killed it at the Metro for our Queued Up Artist Showcase! Spookyland was great too, check out the gallery of photos for both of them below.

The fourth annual Summer Film Series returns to Millennium Park, and we think this year’s lineup is sure to please most Chicagoans. You can see all your favorite Chicago classics and more this summer when the free film series returns to the lawn at Jay Pritzker Pavilion. Bring a blanket and catch films like Ferris Bueller’s Day Off  (READ MORE HERE)
Don’t get me wrong I love Ferris Bueller’s Day Off but I don’t know If I’m ready to join hundreds of others outside on a lawn to watch it. Though I will say watching movies in the park is kind of awesome in theory, but I think I’m more of a “hey let’s set up a projector in the backyard” kind of guy if I wanted to get the drive in movie vibe. I would however love if Matthew Broderick or Mr. Bill Murray had a Chicago film festival / tour of the city that ended with a pub crawl hosted by Mr. Murray Mr. Broderick. Just puttin’ it out there. I’ve got ideas and dreams! – @marconibologna
I can only imagine if you’re on the Cubs how hard it would be to keep your cool if you were terrified of mimes. – @marconibologna

To create contests that look more seamless, I created a template that styles this contesting module by stripping many “default” items. Below, this contesting module, has zero styling customization. This is how Triton intended this module to look.

For some of us, beer is the impetus for working out. But for brewers, it is a workout—and not just for the biceps (i.e. raising pint to mouth). As part of Chicago’s first West Town Migration Week (March 28-April 1), five days of tastings and dinner with rare offerings and favorites, Goose Island wants to show us how brewers stay in shape with an exercise class highlighting their daily tasks.

Finally a workout that gets me. Why can’t this be the new trend?? It has everything you need to get in shape, weights, cardio, beer!! – @marconibologna

The McDonald’s next to Wrigley Field is gone and a lot of people are acting it’s like the end of an era. It could be, or you could spend 8 minutes in a car and hit the one on Ashland. DNAinfo hooked up the video. They have more HERE. -Lou
Ever steal anything when you were younger? This kid probably has you beat. Not condoning what he did, but he does handle that huge truck pretty well for an 11-year-old.
