This week's issue of Time Out Chicago is built around the theme of dive bars, and while most of the content in this special report is disposable, they do have one incredibly funny list of things to look for to discern when a dive bar is actually a hipster bar in disguise. What's even funnier is that I know every single bar each of the rules are calling out.Also featured is the terrific Ola's, but so help me, if Time Out Chicago suddenly makes that place hip and popular -- the way Rolling Stone ruined Tuman's (although, admittedly, that place was a dive bar rescued by hipsters ... and then overrun by tie-wearing suburbanites before being sold and re-tooled into another faceless room for the affluent white kids in the area) -- I'm launching an all-out assault on their offices.
