Well it wasn’t ideally designed or maintained then if it’s flooding, now was it?

Those aren’t potholes, but even if they were, it’s June. Potholes were filled in months ago.
But, they’re misspending it all anyway. We might as well get some decent roads out of the deal.
Can we, though? Hard to study when you’re sopping wet.
It’s the same kind of mentally that put New Orleans under water, way back when. “That’s too expensive, besides, what are the chances...”
Actually, it does. They know it’s gonna snow, and they know it’s going to be an unsafe clusterfuck resulting in injury and potential death. They just can’t be bothered. Not like they need to buy new trucks every year. With the amount they’d be used they would last forever with proper maintenance. Hell, the DOT…
They dig up roads on a whim anyway and piss away billions on countless amounts of nonsense, so yeah, if you want to be a world class city, fix your shit.
Taxes like you wouldn’t believe, and you’re right, weather is weather. It’s nothing new. How did it manage to sneak up on the civil engineers?
Well, now it’s international news and a black eye for the entire country. Canada works hard to keep up appearances, dontchakno?
Everybody makes mistakes, but most problems are solvable with enough money and engineering. Sounds like 100 years of complacency are keeping you guys under water. I mean, it’s been a while since I’ve been, but Florida gets hammered with rain worse than anywhere I’ve ever been. Like, pull over because the wipers do…
Considering the taxes citizens pay, you’re damn right. If you're going to build a city, you should have a vague understanding as to what the hell you're doing.
Perhaps the city should investigate why it’s infrastructure can’t handle rainwater in the dead of summer without creating huge pools in the street. What the hell happens there in the winter when the storm drains are covered in ice, snow, and debris? 20,000 leagues under the sea?
Sweet lifehack. Totally relevant to lifehacker.

One of my all time favorite movies.
Gotta get their attention so they don’t miss the finger somehow.
Someone out there designed the Captiva.
Fact: Submerge the wreck in salt water. It will safely discharge the cells, and will prevent re-ignition.
How about they try building a reliable car, while they’re at it?
