I don't get why people who don't live in this area keep implying that it isn't livable or walkable now. Plenty of people live here and walk here, and we'd been doing it for well over a century before...

Oh, spare me.

Oh, there is no love lost between me and the Michigan legislature. I think they're about the sorriest bunch of dimwitted, bigoted, small-minded corporate stooges you're ever likely to find, and I...

Because God knows there were no such entities as opportunistic demagogues prior to the mid-1960s. The fuck?

So, based on the discussion here and elsewhere, it seems like this proposal is probably not going to pass. I guess my question for the "no" voters is, what's your proposed alternative to investing...

So your problem with Kym Worthy is that she spent money on educating her child that she could have given to Countrywide Financial instead?

Perhaps you're a recent arrival from outer space, but we...

It matters because this keeps happening, and the life span of these publicly funded sports facilities keeps shrinking. St. Louis and the state of Missouri are about to blow $400 million of public...

Of course he wasn't. I don't think he ever even pretended he was. He simply asked the city and state for a handout, and got one. Our public officials are evidently of the persuasion that giving...

Did you read her post? Her requirements seem pretty basic to me.

I'm hard pressed to think of a market niche for a commercial building with a leaky roof and nonfunctioning HVAC. What sort of...

That's not her point, though. She's not criticizing onerous government licensing regimes, she's criticizing speculative property investors who refuse to do basic upkeep or offer their buildings for...

In light of the fact that you're just posting the same words over and over again in a slightly different order, I guess my response is:

I'm getting the strong impression that you find this...

The USSR under Stalin venerated "Stakhanovites," whose strong work ethic led them to produce quantities greatly in excess of their production quotas.



Emphasis mine.

He's working his ass off day after day, depriving himself of sleep and ruining his health, and he's still exactly where he started. Meanwhile the factory owner who only knows him as "that guy with...

I don't recognize the world this article is critiquing. Or rather, I do, but only from reading scads of similar laments, many of them on DetroitYes, and feeling similarly baffled.

The Shinola...

Islamabad doesn't have a particularly large population of ethnic Arabs. Danny's suggestion is more akin to calling an Irish neighborhood "Little Italy" on the basis that most of its residents are...

I live here because I'm an evil anti-suburban hater who hates the suburbs. I don't really talk to most of my neighbors, though.

What/where are the fake Grand Rivers? I've never noticed them.

I have no idea how you managed to extract that from any of my posts. I didn't address that question in this thread at all, and don't remember having done so recently anywhere else either.

If you...

No, your opinions speak for themselves. I only found out in this post that you don't live in the city, but I was sick of your opinions long before that.

Yes.Going on, shit, almost nine years. I feel old.

This post is complete gibberish. I have no idea what you are trying to say. It's sad that your cultural pathologies make you insufficiently motivated to pull up your bootstraps and learn to express...

What about Detroit do you "like," if you think it's indecent and a dump and you're trying to think of ways to get rid of the people who live here? It doesn't sound to me like you like it very much at...

How can we get intrusive busybodies like Willi to go away and leave us alone? Is there a solution, a fix, a remedy, a way to get him to mind his own business?

Haha, I second the shit out of that.

This makes no sense. Sports leagues aren't competitive marketplaces. They're cartels. In the real world, the Red Wings aren't going to lose fans to the Blackhawks or Canadiens if the stadium isn't...
