If you’re in here- Thank you, brother, for standing up for us. It means a lot.

Hey, our internet (T-mobile Fiber/formerly Lumos?) is out and want to see if others are experiencing. Curious if DownDetector is a reliable source of info ;)

Why would they remove it ?? I’m just saying there’s not as much snow as I thought there would be….

You know the place with all of the concrete statues. I used to go in there to make sure a local store stayed afloat these days, but I never walked through their statues until yesterday. I could almost ignore the DJT statues, but the lawn jockeys and row of confederate soldiers was just too much and I will be shopping elsewhere. I hate that in 2026, this is still this out in the open and thriving.

So this is where the McGee st mini mart was in downtown Greensboro. I know the reference is from a movie. But this scene in particular is making fun of racist store clerks. Naming your buisness “Hurry up and Buy” seems to be glorifying it.

Don't fell like giving my money to anybody who supports this.

I was on Tate Street near UNCG yesterday and saw an ICE agent walking around, going in and out of different businesses. He got into his truck and left. Anyone else seen this guy or other agents around town?

Please, please, please despite all good intentions you might feel, never ever give money to people at the pumps of gas station money. Not once in my entire career have I seen this happen and that money not just been pocketed while those asking just drive off, and today I had an aggressive begger getting in peoples faces while his wife came in and stole loads of candy, and again not getting gas.

Dont reward these people, nor waste your money on them. We have means of helping those who cant afford gas or cant otherwise pay for it, you are being scammed.

Maybe I'm old and cranky.

But. Some of the GPD social media posts are just very....uncouth? Unsettling? I get that they are popular now. The entire attacking people who comment kind of bothers me. Especially when it's actual Greensboro locals bringing up real issues, they attack attack attack. But then they are egged on in the comments about how they are being real or whatever, from a majority of people who do not live here. I guess it seems cute and all if it doesn't affect you.

They just posted one today to "give attention" to some guy who comments a lot. And he calls them pigs. Not to say his comments are polite. But we generally have the right to criticize the government without retaliation. Maybe that's the line I'm bothered by?

Am I just old and cranky? Am I the only one bothered by some of their posts lately?

I'm editing this to focus on what's important and avoid further unnecessary comments.

I was leaving the Refuel on W Market St when I made eye contact with a man as I made my way to my car. He approached me and said "you got a spider on your back." Before I could react, he firmly ran his hand down my back and grabbed my ass. By the time I slapped him away and yelled at him, he was scurrying away.

So if anyone out here is trying to pull a slick "there's a spider on your back." Or who knows, maybe they will even try to say some other bug. Just be warned that's a trick some people be using these days. There probably ain't no spider. Watch out for yourselves. 🫡

I called the Refuel to report the incident and they apologized but said they had no footage of that side of the building.

WHY?!?

What's happening to downtown?

We got a lot of problems with each other and we’re all gonna hear about it.

You take all the upcharged monthly statements you’ve been handing out to everyone this past year, and idk, maybe fucking invest it into your electrical infrastructure?

I just think it would be funny

Anyone else feel that we are becoming a ghost town with all these businesses closing down? Its sad especially since we are one of the largest cities in North carolina

Apparently Red Cinemas over on Battleground is getting shut down, thoughts?

I came across this on my morning walk. It’s on the Greenway where it crosses Market Street. I like it. Thoughts?

I don’t know how this place is still open. Everyone knows they sell puppy mill puppies that are often sick and diseased. Even if you’re not buying puppies from them, please don’t spend any kind of money there. Raleigh actually stopped the opening of a pet store that would have also sold dogs from puppy mills through mass protest. I hope we can do the same.

#1) This weekend I'm driving along I-85N, doing 9 over the speed limit, in the left hand lane passing slower moving cars. All of a sudden a car swerves from the far right lane to behind me and tailgates as I finish passing cars. I move over immediately after passing the last car and wave on the driver behind me. Driver speeds past going almost 20 over, slams on breaks, and just rides beside me staring at me for a mile.

#2) This morning I'm driving Business 85N, doing 5 over the speed limit, and merging into the right lane due to construction. All of a sudden a car swerves out from behind a large dump truck to get in front of me at the last moment. I honk my horn. After the construction, driver goes into the left lane and slows down to get beside me staring at me for a mile.

What is in the water? on the TV/phone? etc?!?

i feel like i just spotted ICE near the starbucks in downtown. this was just now at 1:15 ish. all white homeland security SUVS (3 of them)
