Deborah Quazzo, you are This Week’s Worst Person in Chicago.
And not even because of your misdeeds per se, but because your misdeeds are stressing me out. I’m trying to take at least a little bit of a break this week.

Happy New Year!
Other people I wish would shut up this week: Robbie Gould, John Kass, Rahm’s re-election campaign, Robert Blagojevich, Stephanie Neely’s pension, and the utter unusability of the latest iteration of the new Sun-Times website. I will get to you all soon enough.
