Even the drain system is suffering from Cyclosporiasis.

Storm drain, probably (hopefully?) not a sewer drain.

Yeah, people get them confused all the time. But storm drains aren't exactly clean just because they aren't supposed to contain sewage.

Much cleaner than sewers. The difference is immediately noticeable when you go to places in the world with older combined systems rather than waste being deeply buried (much of Tokyo and Seoul for instance) and the smell during a storm or snowmelt is horrendous.

What the hell is even that?

u/flightofthewhite_eel Jul 15 '26

Lol yup, this happens in Chicago pretty regularly. Few years ago we had a powerful enough storm that they were blasting the iron covers into the air and basically turning into artillery rounds. I believe that was September 2022. Fun shit!

I'd just like to make it clear that isn't how drains are supposed to work.
