Gothamist: Rain Screws Up Friday Afternoon Commute

It’s not completely their fault MissPink. The NYC sewer system can't handle the rain we had last night, so it overflows into other areas. Since the subways are underground, that’s going to be the first thing that’s going to be affected. Also when there’s heavy rain, raw untreated sewage usually overflows into the Hudson River. So if you’re thinking about taking a swim in any body of water in NYC, I wouldn’t recommend it.

The R and N were down, too, around 7 p.m. on Friday night- I ended up walking from my Astoria dwelling to Queensboro Plaza to get on the 7 train, so I could get into town. I am SO SICK of the MTA proposing all these stupid money wasting projects when the trains SHUT DOWN during rain. Couldn't they fix that first??

Crotch? I though that word had been long replace by the word "cooter"?

Nick, I'm not overly concerned with spelling and grammar. I wasn't defending Jen. I was pointing out that it is hypocritical to criticise another's grammar and spelling when one's own is far from sterling.

Lilitu - why does everyone use this defense? if you were actually concerned with spelling and grammar at all, you'd be criticizing every one of Jen's posts. stop defending her.. and michelle. ill marry you. im crotchety.

Michelle, you might want to look to your own grammar and spelling before attempting to criticise anyone else's. I will refrain from the sexism spewed by the other two commenters, though. I was trying to get back to Manhattan from Borough Hall and the 4, 5, and R trains weren't running at the time, either.

Kojak, LOL. Seriously Michelle, it's the weekend, try not to be such a hard case. You knows, you may even find a partner some day willing to tolerate your crotchetiness.

Michelle, you should do something about that sand in your vagina. I hear Vagisil and most Douche products can help make you less irritable and bitchy, especially towards other people’s bad grammar.
