My Most Hated Feeling In The World

guri-gure (56)in #steemit-webcomics • 6 years ago (edited)

It's official! Rainy season has started in our little part of the planet!

I just came home early this morning from my night shift work. It rained the night before I got out the office. On my commute home I got stranded in heavy traffic. Coming to a turn, the driver told us passengers that's as far as he can go because they can't drive through the road as it is flooded. What once was an asphalt road yesterday is now a muddy river.

Here's an actual picture I took with my old mobile phone. Please forgive the picture quality:

Just look how Derpina's morning is already ruined! And she's just starting the day!

With no other way to pass through, I decided to brave some part of the cesspool so I can go on and reach the next mode of transportation that will take me closer to home.

Ick! Ugh! Pheewwww!!!
The water looks just like poo!
And surprise, surprise! Trash float all around the place.
No wonder this happened!

After I got home, I immediately washed my shoes and took a warm bath.
I wouldn't want to catch leptospirosis! Oh gawd! That's one dead serious disease! No joke!

When I was a kid, my mother taught us to dispose of garbage properly. She thought us to be mindful of the environment. Even that small candy wrapper we peeled off from that frutos or tootsie roll, we were told to drop on the proper trash bin. If no trash can is in sight, we keep them in our pockets until we find one or get home.
No trash too small can escape!

She always said.. That small candy wrapper that you just throw on the ground, that piles up with all the other trash and will give us trouble later. So make sure you throw them away properly.

Honestly until today, I still try my best to do my part.

So now...

YOU! Who carelessly threw away that empty plastic bottle after taking that refreshing drink...

I BLAME YOU!

YOU! Who threw away that torn chippy foil on the ground after eating it with your friends...

I BLAME YOU!

YOU! Who just let slip that cigarette butt you just finished...

I BLAME YOU!

I BLAME YOU ALL!!! I BLAME YOU ALL FOR MY WET, SOGGY AND SMELLY SOCKS!

SHAME ON YOU!

Even something so small, will pile up and clog our sewers.
Please remember that.

I implore you all, please.. Let's all do our part or else that flood of poo water will get higher and higher every downpour!

We all live on the same planet. Let's take good care of it so it will take good care of us!

Unless you really want to swim in poo water!

Lol, that was a surprise twist to the comic. Unexpected! :P

Interesting lesson to this write-up! :O

I like your green passion here, and I like how you funnily expressed your frustration with litterers. :) I wish for some more lead up transition sentence/words between "Honestly until now, I do my best to do my part" and the "I blame you all" section.

Really like your work! Looking forward to your next post :)

Yeah, I know that feeling, it socks xD

In all seriousness, I agree with you. I also keep my trash in my pocket until I can find a trash can or I reach my home. And I can't even dare cross a flooded road because I can get allergies easily.

You mentioning conan and tootsie roll on your post, makes me feel young xD
