    I feel genuinely called out - I thought everyone likes poking holes in clogs and watching standing water drain out. Especially people who walk or cycle a lot and don’t like being splashed by cars

      Same. Sometimes when I go for walks in the rain I bring one of those little gardening fork things and clear out the drains. I imagine I look wild wandering the streets with a garden implement but it’s very satisfying and rewarding, especially knowing sometimes that water floods peoples houses.

      I spent an hour today unclogging a drain my rain gutter goes to instead of trimming the bamboo bullshit like I was supposed to. It was awesome when the water went down. The bamboo got cut but that was shitty. More holes please.

      Man I love going for hikes in the winter where there’s always a trickle of water along the trail, just asking for someone to scour a path off the trail with a boot or stick. Or a well placed handful of mud and gravel diverts the water

      ngl I’d proudly photograph the standing water for a few different angles and the thought of unclogging it would never cross my mind
