Wrong.

Atlanta isn't majority-minority anymore.

Not at all true. Talking inside 285Virginia Highlands and Vinnings are still very nice. As are parts on Inman Park, Decatur, Druid Hills, Sandy Springs and Little 5 Points.


Forgot to add Midtown and West Midtown and I'll take
ALL those places over Buckhead. Sounds like Fire Dan hasn't visited since the 90's.

Lately they don't work for me either.

I changed some browser settings recently and wasn't sure if that is what did it, but now I guess not.

I saw it before you changed it, it was an Apollo gif. I thought you were talking about Real Housewives when the husbands went to strip clubs in Atlanta.

I can't post a GIF from Yarn or even see one from anyone else now, even if it's in an older post.

They just stopped showing up at all for me — if there isn't any accompanying text, the posts are blank.

Yarn images have always been weird/poor quality though.

Lou’s is good but if you want some good tavern style pizza, go check out Michael’s in Uptown. Great za.

I'm not calling you a liar, but I need some kind of stats/source/link to back this up.

I'm talking about ATL proper, not the MSA.

Yet somehow, commuter traffic hasn't gotten any better. It's weird. All these people working from home (including myself) and the rare instance I have to go into ATL during rush hour, it's just as bad as it ever was.


Dumb decision making and corruption keeps it that way. Gwinnett spent like 7 years building 3 overpasses on 316 to allleviate the traffic there, leaving 4 lights on 316. They fixed absolutely nothing.

Ten years later, the same 4 lights are there backing up traffic on 316 every single morning and afternoon. Meanwhile further down the road over in Barrow County, they threw up overpasses about one per year.

For 7 years I had to drive down 316 seeing 50-60 pieces of heavy equipment. In that 7 years, I can count on one hand how many times I saw more than one piece of equipment moving. shite, in Houston those 3 overpasses would have been done in 2-3 weeks.

Nope majority definition

More like a plurality.
