Rants: Hey, naked guys on Robson. This one's for you

To the Robson Street pink phone guys: Since you moved into a building which is at close proximity to the neighbouring building, your neighbours often find that on passing or looking out of their kitchen and bedroom windows, they are met with the sigh

To the Robson Street pink phone guys: Since you moved into a building which is at close proximity to the neighbouring building, your neighbours often find that on passing or looking out of their kitchen and bedroom windows, they are met with the sight of large naked male bodies, of various kinds, on the two decks. Now these are large decks, particularly the upper one, and they both face north, away from the adjacent building. Is there really any good reason for encroaching on the privacy of neighbours when you could situate yourselves towards the front of your decks rather than on the side which directly faces another building? Please show more considerate behaviour and more respect for the privacy of your neighbours. Thank you.

Ive lost track of the number of near-misses Ive witnessed at the intersection of Denman and West Georgia, where all the cars turning left off Denman toward the Lions Gate Bridge blast through, unaware that there is oncoming traffic with the right-of-way to go straight. People treat the green like it is a dedicated left turn signal which it SHOULD be. Having been the person trying to go straight, at the legally allowed time, through the charging two-lane traffic, I can attest to feeling much like the frog in Frogger. City, please put a left turn signal in, or a sensor light for cars going straight to sort it all out!

My, my, Granville Street downtown sucks big time. Trashy, dirty, grungy and posts every two feet. Shopkeepers are too darn lazy to keep the front walks and windows clean. Nighttime, these bad-ass kids with attitude take over. What a pathetic, disgusting, disgraceful cheap nightlife it becomes. So trashy. Parents, you need to get your bad ass to Parenting 101, and teach your brats how to behave in public. Shame, shame, on all of you. Wheres your dignity and pride?

Innocent Bystander

Construction everywhere downtown!!! Every summer pain in my ass!! Plus, new one-way-only on 900 block of Helmcken between Burrard and Hornby because of bike lane. Uggggg!
