Henchman of Santa posted:In Detroit/Windsor, there is a radio station called The River (93.9 FM). It's slogan is "Deep. Cool. Current." which does a fair job of describing the music it plays (modern indie rock). I only recently realized that all of those words are also meant to describe a river (although "current" would be a noun in that case and not an adjective). It doesn't describe just any river. It's the Detroit River.

Hirayuki posted:We've got a major road/state highway named "Gratiot" whose second syllable is pronounced precisely like "poo poo". It's fun when out-of-towners try to maneuver delicately around it until a local tells them it's okay to step right in it. As it were. All the French street names around Detroit are pronounced wrong. Gratiot Dequindre Charlevoix Dix Also "Detroit" itself.
