Fuck you & your minor ass sob stories…
…cause some people in this world have real life shit that they have to deal with.
Cainta Rizal, Luzon, Quezon City, Pasig, and the rest of Manila.
A month’s worth of rain under 24 hours on top of 65mph continuous winds.
Do you understand that?
ONE MONTH’S WORTH OF RAIN. UNDER-TWENTY-FOUR-HOURS.
And you think you have problems, right? Right.
Drop your house and all your belongings into the sea & watch your family drown as they’re being swept away into a local river. Then, and only then, will you be able to relate.
“The worst-hit country, the Philippines, began the slow process of clearing up mud and debris Wednesday.
Even as they did so, Filipinos kept their eyes peeled on another storm looming in the Pacific Ocean.
In the city of Pasig — part of metropolitan Manila — enterprising residents used inflatable mattresses as makeshift boats to ferry people through flooded streets.
The government, which some people said did not act quickly enough, opened up part of the presidential palace for aid distribution.
Ketsana left at least 246 people dead as it passed over the Philippines. Another 38 people were still missing, the National Disaster Coordinating Council said.
The storm affected nearly 2 million people and forced the evacuation of 567,000. At one point, 80 percent of the capital Manila was under water after experiencing the heaviest rainfall in 40 years.
As the death toll rose, so did the collective grief.”
