Is there anything significant about your city that outright annoys you, and that you wish would change?

Our subway system.

The orange line broke down, the red line is on fire, the blue line is useless, and nobody can figure out where the green line got derailed and hit a bunch of cars while it was above ground.

There's a traffic light on the county road I drive on almost every day with a left turn arrow. There's a delay even if no one is turning left. That and traffic in general.

We lost the first bookstore we had in ten years after it had been open only 7 months, then it became a photographer's studio and now the place is sitting empty and probably will for who knows how long.

We also just lost our only video store which had been around for over 10 years so can't rent movies now except through the library and isn't that going to be fun trying to find new releases?

And I'd like to know who the wise guy is who decreed the bowling alley/arcade can only be open Wednesdays and Thursdays in summer, ta loca Wednesdays and Thursdays, what about weekends?

It's destructive ways? It's a madhouse.

The transit system it needs a complete overhaul.

The traffic, and overall congestion, here is abominable.

I don't know. It's hard to say, 'cause some of the things I'd change have to do more with the people - idiot drives and so fort - than the city itself. Probably the traffic, though - some areas are REALLY bad! We need some overpasses and changes to traffic patterns.

Ooh lawd.

Price of rent
Price of gas
Price of mass transit. I can remember when a token cost a dollar.
The number of potholes.
Our mayor.


NYC just ain't the same anymore.

The roads.

I would love to have this city be home to more progressive thinkers who are not sheep.

Same here. I think it is everywhere.
