[-] Draghetta@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Fun fact: in Italian “Chicago” means “I crap in it”. Apt homophone for a city built on a body of water.

Another fun fact, there crap actually doesn't go in the lake. They built a canal a while ago to flush it down to st. Louis then down the Mississippi.
