Comcast customer service is pretty bad. The pricing games it plays are stupid - i have to call every 6 months like clockwork, spending at least 15-20 minutes on the phone, to get a "new"...

The one factor where Detroit competes in this area is overwhelmingly Cost Of Living. It is extremely cheap to live here. Rents in major cities are so high you have 3-4 people sharing 2 bedroom...

So...the city of Detroit filed for Chapter 9 bankruptcy. As a downtown resident since 1999, here's my take [[opinions are like assholes, but here goes anyway): BE PREPARED - THIS IS THE FIRST OF...

Threads like this are what makes internet discussion ABSOLUTELY irrelevant to all topics [[and I'm including "trending" on Twitter & other Social Media crap here too).

The moron who started this...

On another note, left lane entrance/exit ramps are such a safety hazard. Always issues exiting or entering - damned if you do, damned if you don't. Terrible design.

I believe that 95% of traffic jams and freeway car accidents are caused by people driving too slow in the left lane.

And spare me the "left lane exits" argument, ESPECIALLY on the Lodge. 9 times...

Honestly - while I am proud to live here, Detroit and its Metro is an ABSLOLUTE SHITHOLE!! We can't educate our children, therefore can't hire workers with hope of achieving higher standard of...

It's too bad in this case that City Council has proven to be so inept. Their total lack of credibility due to a proven track record of ineptitude is undermining what actually may be a sound case for...

Try the stairs at Joe Louis Arena.

For sprints - MLK High has a running track at its athletic field. Not sure if it's open to the public or not though.

I was on the fence about this because as someone noted previously, the campaign literature and more importantly the ballot initiative were SO POORLY worded. Ended up voting yes because art doesn't...

I would guess that over 50% of the young people currently in Chicago are from here. And that's just the young set. It's crazy how many people [[young people in particular) moved there in the last 10...

Not necessarily a perfect plan, but a GREAT start. Bold thinking is what's going to get things in Detroit straightened out. Maintenance of the status quo via either Consent Agreement or EM isn't...

I live in this neighborhood and it is certainly walkable...at pretty much all hours of the day/night.

However the MLK Apartments and the liquor store across the street are absolute magnets for...

So let me get this straight.... a group of people rent a party bus for the night so they can go out and NOT drink & drive [[pretty responsible), happen to have a 19 year old ADULT on board [[not...

The Detroit Edison Public School Academy's new facility is being built there. Next door to the existing facility.

I think we need to make the distinction between tourism and immigration [[that might not be the right word, but you get my drift).

As a tourist area, Metro Detroit sucks. There isn't a large...

Looking for a good place that offers drop in yoga in the downtown area. Preferably with bikram/vinyasa capabilities, but that's not a deal breaker.

Let me know if you can point me in the right...

Did it 5 years ago. Best money I ever spent.

Wore glasses from age 5, couldn't do contacts because I can't put my fingers in my eyes [[still to this day). My vision was terrible: -7 and change in...

The USA is sooooooo backwards/stuck in the 19th century on so many things - even though we are in the 21st. The religious right has a hold on the moral lawmaking of this country and won't let go. ...

Pugh's competence [[or lack thereof) aside...

His situation illustrates the BIGGEST problem in America right now. Homeowners far and wide are taking a HUGE bath on their investments. Nothing is...

We will eventually look back on this as opportunity squandered.

The cost of building infrastructure continues to rise prohibitively - Detroit won't ever have an opportunity like this again.
...

Bankruptcy, Emergency Manager...whatever. Nothing will change until we as a city, county, state, and country change the way we think about government and government's role in our lives.

This is...

I was at the game and it was LOUD!!!!! From start to finish. Spent most of the game standing...the whole crowd did. Incredible atmosphere. The Bears were clearly thrown by all the noise. Took them...

You're right - she handled it about as poorly as one could handle the situation.

Still - it's the county's compensation practices that need to be looked at here. Wonder if the feds are eyeing ...
