- Cancerkitty, on 07/09/2009, -0/+28It's great to see some positive things said about the D.
Now, how about that Monica Conyers? - jgopp, on 07/09/2009, -0/+23Even with all the crap that happens in Detroit I love living here. There are these micro developed areas which are home to the coolest music and the most down to earth people. It doesn't take much to find an awesome time in Detroit.
- diggabytes, on 07/09/2009, -4/+26Number 11 - It's not Cleveland:

Pro tip: nobody here calls it "the D". - steve89lx, on 07/09/2009, -2/+19Everybody calls it the D, except you it seems
- Cancerkitty, on 07/09/2009, -1/+17Funny, I hear it all the time.
- NBCLocal, on 07/09/2009, -0/+16Drooling over the thought of Vernors. Anyone know where to buy it in New York or the East Coast in general?
- cawpin, on 07/09/2009, -0/+13You obviously never been to Gary, IN.
- ToddIU03, on 07/09/2009, -0/+13Well, Baltimore was voted the city with the ugliest residents, so that's something to hang your hat on.
- cawpin, on 07/09/2009, -1/+14Well, since Canada didn't have prohibition, they're obviously talking about IN THE US.
- Tw3ek, on 07/09/2009, -1/+13I wish I could digg you down twice. I really do. Bet you've never even been there, ya jackass.
- KillTheAcademy, on 07/09/2009, -0/+12Vernors! holy smack Batman, I almost forgot, They use to make a Vernors and ice cream float at White Castle that was the *****!
- ToddIU03, on 07/09/2009, -0/+11I hear its so cold in the D.
- DeusNova, on 07/09/2009, -1/+12Dugg for Detroit Techno, most people think techno is cheesy Sandstorm crap...it's nothing like that. It's hard to get into but the genre is addicting.
' - adam1378, on 07/09/2009, -0/+10Its really not a bad place to go. It really has some beautiful architecture and a really nice parkway that was recently remodeled. And the Woodward Dream Cruise that stretches for 30 some miles and chances are you will see any vehicle you can think of.
- freeridstylee, on 07/09/2009, -0/+10Don't you mean sneezing over the though of Vernors?
- jattea, on 07/09/2009, -0/+9"7. Only City From Which One Can Look South to Canada"
O rly? http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&ll=43.019961,- ... - SMELLtheGluv, on 07/09/2009, -3/+12Do you even live in Detroit? Everyone calls it the D.
- freeridstylee, on 07/09/2009, -0/+8He's not doing a very good job.
- Tw3ek, on 07/09/2009, -0/+8See, now why'd you have to go and say a thing like that? Hopefully she ends up in prison where she belongs.
- uberbeast1054, on 07/09/2009, -0/+7His budget was cut.
- dmoney51, on 07/09/2009, -1/+8Tell that to FSN:Detroit
- Learn2Fly87, on 07/09/2009, -1/+8I see the Stanley Cup, The Larry O'Brien Trophy and the Commissioners Trophy, but no Lombardi Trophy... Gotta love those Lions.
- DearYou, on 07/09/2009, -1/+8Dugg for Vernor's. Best drink ever after smoking a bowl.
- sailadayaway, on 07/09/2009, -1/+8Finally a list of X things I didn't know about, that I actually didn't know about!
- samson7842, on 07/09/2009, -1/+7Born and raised there. We call it the "D" all the time. You must be from the burbs.
Ferndale, maybe? - jon0tan, on 07/09/2009, -0/+6Good to hear some positive things about Detroit. I get tired of hearing morons and the media talk about how bad it is here when they've obviously never visited.
- kenjura, on 07/09/2009, -2/+8Okay, so there's more than one city from which you can look south to Canada.
But in almost EVERY city we can LOOK DOWN on Canada. Mwaha, suck it, Canada! - llopez1223, on 07/09/2009, -1/+7Championships prove otherwise.
- sgtSlack, on 07/09/2009, -0/+5Also dugg for Detroit Techno and the Belleville Three. So much soulful and innovative music came from those techno all-stars! High Tech Soul is a must see for fans of real techno music.
- theghoul, on 07/09/2009, -0/+5Vernors rocks. True midwesterners dont sneeze or cough while drinking it.
Also, go try Faygo. Creame soda baby. - sfcaptainrob, on 07/09/2009, -0/+4You take that back!
- seNoj1, on 07/09/2009, -1/+5Detroit gets a bad rep, but if you go to the better places like Comerica Park, Greektown, Ford Field, Hockeytown. You can have some fun.
- stevenkmason, on 07/09/2009, -2/+6I live about 45 minutes away in Brighton, MI. I'm moving to Detroit in the fall for college (CCS!) and couldn't be more excited! This article was great! It's good to hear good things every once in a while, instead of all the negativity about everything!
- nick041, on 07/09/2009, -5/+9I ***** hate it when they call it "The D". I live in Michigan & living in a state where the media & celebrities constantly refer to Detroit as "The D" is just ***** embarrassing.
Thanks a lot Eminem. - bearcat8543, on 07/09/2009, -0/+4go screw yourself
- inactive, on 07/09/2009, -0/+4Calling it "the D" is not a hipster thing.
- specialbuddy1, on 07/09/2009, -1/+5DEMF was great until they started charging money. It was the biggest free music festival in the U.S.
- kenjura, on 07/09/2009, -0/+4Faygo Redpop could unseat Coke and Pepsi if sold outside MI.
- freeridstylee, on 07/09/2009, -0/+4Rock n Rye's good though.
- erisfreenici, on 07/09/2009, -0/+4I call it the D. I hear plenty of people who live in Cali call it "CALLIE" and I know several people in san fran who call it SAN FRAN. I think you people are just bein snobby.
- mrvociferous, on 07/09/2009, -3/+7And you're a ***** nugget.
Sincerely,
Metro Detroiters everywhere - adam1378, on 07/09/2009, -0/+3why bring her up...she is typically what is wrong with the State of Michigan.
- twollamalove, on 07/09/2009, -1/+4No no, insisting that calling it the D is somehow lame is a hipster thing. I live near detroit and not so long ago lived in it (it was a trial thing; I have a love/hate relationship Detroit); ***** place is crawling with those cockroaches
- snapcase, on 07/09/2009, -0/+3I think there's some online stores that will ship it to you.
- joshuaer, on 07/09/2009, -0/+3http://elovethiscity.com/detroit/wp-content/images ...
why did they feel the need to poorly shop a girl into the photo? - bmcnally, on 07/09/2009, -0/+3Yeah, that part was kind of weird. I had to look at the footnotes where it says "City as defined as 250,000+ residents'.
- bdbr, on 07/09/2009, -2/+5Its funny that they talk about the number of sports championships won...but half of those were just the hockey team.
- zaffir, on 07/09/2009, -1/+4It's so cooooooold in the D...
