News here in İstanbul in a.bit will report that torrential rain caused traffic all over the city, resulting in widespread gridlock.

No it didn't.

Selfish cunts who got in their cars in a day like this caused traffic.

I am in my second bus of the day, half empty especially given the hour, waiting for idiots in cars who would rather die and kill than let a drop of rain touch their stupid uncivilised heads.

And I had to get off the first one because it had practically stopped. I decided I'd rather try and walk to an alternative path that might be (and thankfully is) less gridlocked.

I might've even caught up with the same bus I got off as it's the same line and I had to circumnavigate a little impromptu pond of sewage that was impassable...
