Water Cooler Talk
Someone wrote this in a comment in the Fauci post:
- Been reading the blog for over a decade. It’s your blog, you can do whatever you want and I’ll still read it everyday. But the consensus I’ve been hearing around the water cooler at work is go back to the bread and butter, department rumors and boss bashing.
What District has a water cooler? Or what floor at HQ?
Whatever, we appreciate constructive criticism from where ever to keep the interest of the readers.
But we did a rough count of our January posts and found out of fifty-ish posts:
- 3 open posts
- 10 crime posts
- 6 scandals - police and fire
- 10 posts on politics (local, state and national)
- 4 posts on illegals
- 5 posts on schools
- 11 posts on Department issues, FOP and safety concerns
We thought it has been a pretty balanced January all-in-all. We don't have a water cooler, just a coffee spot and a bar. And believe it or not, cops actually care about politics at all levels, especially when so many political decisions affect our kids education, our tax bills, our bodily autonomy, our district lobbies, etc.
You're welcome to skip the posts that don't interest you. You're welcome to submit stories and rumors for us to look at and perhaps write about.
Fair warning though - as the 2024 election approaches and the next "plandemic" is implemented and cops are expected (ordered) to perform certain functions (even Constitutionally questionable functions), we're going to be writing until they don't allow us to.

Rumor has it assman009 drinks a whole 5 gallon jug everyday before doing wall push ups while on his 78 smoke breaks.
I agree that theres to many non department related posts this time around…but its your blog and its my choice or not to read it. So carry on.
NOVEMBER 5th !!!!
Beat these BASTARDS !!!
To Mr Watercooler….then go leak inside information. If people have real, factual information, post it. Don’t lie. We want real stories to read. Although I think SCC is doing just fine.
To be fair you could file illegals and schools under politics.
Your House. Your Rules.
Post any thing you want. You usually have 3-4 posts, and up to six sometimes. I usually see something that really interests me in two or three posts. That's two or three more than zero, which is quite good actually.
These young coppers have their head in thier ass about current politics. Non-fricken wannabe YouTubersvis what they care about. Still playing video games is at the top of their list, not politics. Keep talking politics.
Probably some Cuck that caved to the illegal mandate and got the jab and all 7 boosters
If you don’t like the post, skip to the next post pussy.
Now that was polite.
Exceedingly, excruciatingly, most kindly polite.
Especially for this gossip craving noser.
Sniff out your own juicy gossip, you nosey noser you.
LT V Grand Central running afoul of leadership yet again.
Bad mouthing both roll calls claiming 95% of her officers would be out of jobs if not for her graciousness, “don’t worry about what time Susie leaves the station four times a week worry about yourself”.
Embarrassment + hispanic favoritism = “I have to talk at you all like you’re my fucking kids, be glad you’re not them.”
Thank you SCC. Love the content . Keep it up please. So glad you’re back .
Keep up the great job. Thank you for all you do to the water cooler guy. If you don’t want to look at it, start your own blog.
Keep posting whatever. Everyone I know loves your efforts, information and end results.
Thank you and all who contribute to this very important blog.
Why isn’t modern mengele, er falsie in front of a firing squad along with all the others who’ve destroyed countless lives, fleeced us all, and caused severe health and sanity issues?
Thank you SCC and all the real heroes. Without you risking everything by reporting and responding, we’d know nothing and the evil ones would not be exposed with their pants down, heads exploding and noses growing.
Blessings always!
Wow, look at here look at this headline;
Pritzker urges Texas Gov. Greg Abbott to stop migrant drop-offs in winter storm: ‘I plead with you for mercy’
https://chicago.suntimes.com/2024/1/12/24036176/pritzker-urges-texas-gov-greg-abbott-to-stop-migrant-dropoffs-amid-winter-storm
Says the multi billionaire who owns thousands of hotels, does not blame the democratic party, the Democratic president who has allowed all of this, does not blame himself for making us a sanctuary state but nowhere else in the state are they dumping the illegal criminals, except for in Chicago so he’s begging for mercy. Wow talk about a hypocrite. Put them up in his hotels if he’s so worried about it, why is he not bitching about Biden allowing all this? Why is he not bitching about the border? As a matter of fact, why is he not turning the buses around or sending the National Guard to the border of Illinois for lending them to Texas sending them to the border there to stop the invasion !
In the last 5 years or so, our country's culture has "jumped the shark". If you pay attention to current events, It no longer resembles what was deemed normal just a few years ago, and the freak show is escalating. This is by design. I think it's imperative for SCC to post articles on anything related to the downfall we are watching. And make no mistake, the corruption is worse than most of us could imagine. In another time frame, that sociopath Fauci would be sitting in a jail cell...or worse.
Totally agree with you all! You guys are brilliant and funny! Hard combination to come by.
Keep up the good work can’t please everyone
The blog’s definitely hit a stride in terms of insightful and informative reporting. It’s doing a solid job shedding light on the corruption and politics that are the real big-picture issues. Reading about incompetent bosses is a good laugh, sure, but what’s the actual outcome of it all? I’m curious if anyone’s looked into the recent Lieutenant’s exam. How come folks with family connections, like those spouses and siblings in that elite study group, managed to nail top 25 spots? Seems like more than just coincidence, doesn’t it? And it’s not just a one-off – we’re seeing the same thing with the Detective exam, where family friends of these connected players are also coming out on top.
Do you want to know what I miss, talk about people who get hurt during training then go on the medical for years. That's the good stuff.
That commenter sounds vaccinated.
You’re doing just fine. Don’t change anything. One person doesn’t speak for all of us.
SCC, great job, as always. Thanks.
Focusing on Fauci again, his actions, edicts resulted in CPD (and others) having to be injected with an inadequately-tested genetic material that was neither effective nor safe. Seems like caring about and taking care of your health, or attempted government control over same is table stakes.
Your blog is greatly appreciated, along with CWB Chicago and Chicago Contrarian.
"Don't go changing to try and please me
You never let me down before
Don't imagine you're too familiar
And I don't see you anymore
I wouldn't leave you in times of trouble
We never could have come this far
I took the good times; I'll take the bad times
I'll take you just the way you are..."
Personally speaking, you cover stories that don't get covered,local and national. Makes it more interesting and I learn something.
SCC...Keep posting, and let the bullshit stick where it lands. One comment/complaint does not constitute a cause for action IMHO.
The complainer sounds like a SJW to me...get back in the shallow end of the pool sluggo...
Thanks also, I cancelled my newspaper subscription over 20 years ago when I realized the "news" they were spewing were op-ed pieces. The nightly news is garbage too! SCC is great, don't change now.
Been reading the blog for over a decade. It’s your blog, you can do whatever you want and I’ll still read it everyday. But the consensus I’ve been hearing around the water cooler at work is go back to the bread and butter, department rumors and boss bashing.
Psy-Ops bait, clearly a fed/spook wrote this piece...
Next bullshit job order (like pumping gas on the west side), take a migrant family home for dinner. But the whiteshirtsbwon't have to.
I'm from a different state, not a cop,(friends of some) a long time follower and 1st time poster.
Your blog is a daily read to get view of what's happening in the 2nd city.
All your posts have some merit and just like going to a buffet, we all have different tastes, if you don't like broccoli, don't eat it.
Welcome back by the way, it would be interesting on how many views you get from outside Chicago
Since Illinois is a sanctuary state, how about drop some migrants in Springfield and East St. Louis...
SCC - thanks for all you put in to this blog to share the stories the puppet masters for the m5m (and political tools) want to keep hidden. Probably some shill/bot set up to try to discourage this blog and community.
Not LE, but really appreciate what the good ones try to do in the face of all the antagonism coming your way.
10 years retired. Don’t change a thing! Reading this blog makes me feel connected in a way

Like when he pleaded with Jenny Craig to stop sending him participation meals...
I support your expanded coverage! SCC 2.0 is on target !
[LIKE BUTTON]
I like the mix the way it is.
One suggestion I WOULD make, however is to disallow "THIS IS OFF TOPIC BUT..." posts.
The comments here are awesome but these hijacks are a pain in the ass. Most of the time they announce them but sometimes they don't.
I'd suggest you stop letting those through moderation and maybe do more open posts to give them a place to spout. They'll find the open threads sooner or later once they realize their off-topic rants aren't showing up under actual defined topics of conversation.
Keep doing what you are doing. Unlike the msm, your coverage is fair and balanced.
SCC, keep doing what you're doing. I've never been a LEO but am really tuned into politics as a life-long conservative. Your blog is the first website I hit every day.
From SCC “… we're going to be writing until they don't allow us to.”
Can you say who “they” are?
Retired,30+
OT and not sure if this was covered… but this is just typical of governor jelly belly….

As goes (D) politics nationally as goes Chicago politics. As others have said, what would have been unthinkable a few years ago is no pushed as mandatory. The insanity of the (D) border and sanctuary policy is enforced by a minority of agenda driven nuts and soft headed followers. It effects all citizens in the city just like the nationwide (D) pro-criminal policy.
We need to take the country back. This is why politics and policy needs to be called out here and wherever as often as possible.
I Eff’in love this Blog.
The blog is doing fine, just cut out the dumb nicknames.
“Blowie”?
“Sparklefarts”?
Are you 7 years old?
See the 10 posts on politics??? Yep, replace all 10. Our lives are surrounded by politics.. last thing I wanna do is come on here for more political commentary about Chicago. I’ve lived Chicago politics for my whole life. Last thing I wanna do is read more about it when I just wanna chill and relax. Cut out the politics. I don’t care about the mayor, the governor or the president.. let’s just talk about our rumors and good stuff. Yeah, Kim foxx, the mayor etc effect our jobs but we already know about it.. it’s beating a dead horse and getting annoying to where I normally only check here once or twice a week when I use to check one or two times a day..
How about a family tree of merit promotions and rest answers as a post
Keep up the good work!!! You’re doing a helluva job!!
Why isn’t modern mengele, er falsie in front of a firing squad along with all the others who’ve destroyed countless lives, fleeced us all, and caused severe health and sanity issues?
Because this current just-us department is politicized. I wouldn’t be too hopeful either if Orange Man Bad overcomes democratic cheating and wins for the third time. He didn’t do anything after he defeated the she-devil from Arkansas in 2016, after he said he wanted to “lock her up” during the campaign. Also, he is fighting against the RINO’s in his own party who threw up roadblocks to all he wanted to do during his term in office.
I think military tribunals are the only way we will see justice served.
Lt V thinks she knows everything but is afraid of her own shadow
What happens when they try to drop illegal criminals off in suburbs they get a police escort out of the suburb. Get the hell out this is the way it should be treated. Don’t worry Brandon they will come here because they know you’re a coward and you’re scared and you’re weak. All the suburbanites are enjoying this, but yet you being the big, dumb goof, you are our allowing all of this in our city, they know you’re a coward, Chicago police would be more than happy to escort these buses, the other way funny how the governor owned you without a doubt.
A bus transporting asylum seekers attempted to drop off their passengers at two Will County Metra stations yesterday afternoon. The first attempted drop off stop was the Manhattan Metra Station, where Manhattan Police were alerted to a large bus in the parking lot. Upon the first officer’s arrival, the bus was leaving the station, but a woman who got off the bus said they were leaving and heading to a different stop because the line that goes through Manhattan has very little service.
A second unit observed the train moving north out of town towards Joliet, where the police department was alerted to the arriving bus. When the bus arrived at Joliet Union Station, Joliet Police notified the driver of the city ordinance restricting buses from dropping off migrants with intent to discharge passengers without proper notification and authority. Learning of this, the driver decided to continue out of Joliet, with escort out of the city limits.
If you guys want to talk about something important we should be talking about medical insurance. How is it possible that someone who is 55 years old but only worked 20 years can get insurance and if you are 54 years old and worked 30 years you can’t get insurance when you’re retired. How’s that even possibly? Let that sink in guys!

SOOOOO True.
I start every conversation with a new person with "are you vaccinated?"
I instantly know that it doesn't make sense to spend time, energy, and effort with them because of their choice.
The follow up question is "what drugs have you tried?"
I then have them explain their choices.
the water cooler this guy/gal/it is referring to is the one around local propaganda news outlets in chicago, which is all of them.
They poach your stories when it's convenient, then trash your blog just to keep their pathetic jobs in fake news.
Red-light district street whores have more honorable work than news outlet employees in 2024 america. This is no CPD employee.

She's very arrogant and cocky. Sometimes I wonder if she has one. And said favoritism in that district is unreal - rookies working the desk, radio room and sdsc room.

Have you looked up the word Contempt?? Using these names shows contempt for the idiots. Just like they hole all of us, police and civilian, in Contempt. So, use your mouse and hit on another blog or news article you agree with. I love the name Mr. Potatohead, for that thieving puppet stumbling about the White House. I hold these imbeciles in contempt. They are not stupid, except for "Blowie" and Mr. Potatohead, they are doing this to this city, state and country. They are putting us in harm's way, taking our money and giving us the middle finger. So, again I say to all here, hold them in contempt.
Retired almost 28 years ago, moved out but still loved the city. My father was correct in moving us to the suburbs in 1953 because of the politics in the city. I crossed over the border and gave an oath to enforce the laws of the City of Chicago, County of Cook and the State of Illinois, just like most of you. Now, that city is a total loss, and I hold all of those responsible for it failing, in Contempt.
I love this blog and most of the people that comment here. We still care. We are not 7 years old either.

Do you proof read before you hit submit? Are you really that dense?
The policy says 55 years of age, not 54 genius. Doesn’t matter how many years after 20 you have if you are not 55 years of age when you retire. If you didn’t understand the policy when you left prior to 55, well that’s just a major league fuck up on your part!

Well thats at least 3 years away at a minimum. Stop fear-porning folks, last time that happened folks (and peoples) abandoned any sense of critical thinking and happily rolled up their sleeves and accepted a toxic hot shot for an illness that had a 99.9% survival rate.
As long as I get paid for the advice I give....

Those who were injected had to accept the government’s C19 shot.
Everyone knew about the exemption process, etc.
Sorry to trigger you with the harsh verb.

Hey, Matt, remember when you had no time on but got put in Cush spots? Now you have to push a beat car so blame your cowardice on a 110 lb woman. Not a good look.
I would love to see you bring back Chalkie! Other than that, no complaints.
