A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

is that /s or have you never been to chicago?
i have been to Chicago many times and used to live in NYC… i’ve also used public transit in many other cities…
door-to-door in 20 minutes is absolute fantasy… you’re not getting to the train station in 20 minutes… especially not from if you have to take a bus.
oh and i used to live and work in manhattan and never pulled off a 20 minute door-to-door trip….
its not hard to live close to an el station that is only a few stops down. its one reason wicker park is popular. granted you could do it with a bike to at that distance as well. bus to train works fine as well as its a bus that runs often. lived in bridgeport off halstead and did that.
40 minutes door to door with that
not sure what you mean but as for bridgeport it was 20 mins door to door downtown unless there was something wrong with the el for me and im sure wicker park could do likewise. 40 if you combine both commute there and commute back.
I had a 20 minute biking commute from Lakeview to the very north area of the loop but it was 30 minutes on an express bus or 45 minutes on the L door to door. A 20 minute door to door transit commute is lucky.
curious was this before or after covid. the redline runs all the time. It surprises me the express bus could beat it. again though it does depend on bus if its part. Halstead while not quite as good as say belmont does have regular busses running. One thing though is I was using the bus tracker so headed out the first door based on not having to wait long.
I was a two block walk from where the 135 went express and my work was a two blocks from a bus stop. The red line took longer because is was a >10 minute walk on each end. The brown line stopped closer to my work but still took longer than the bus (without traffic).
I would usually check the traffic on LSD before heading home and if it was really bad take the L, in the morning traffic was usually not bad enough to where the L was faster.
makes sense. My job and where I lived where pretty close to the el or one of the often bus routes that had a stop at an el station.
