the thing that pisses me off most about umbrellas is that 90% of the time people are INCREDIBLY fucking inconsiderate with them. like, i think a lot of people who aren't normally inconsiderate become total dicks when they get an umbrella in their hands. i can't count the number of times i've been slashed in or around the eye by the edges of umbrellas if i wasn't quick, or, if i was, been forced off a sidewalk into a muddy flower patch to avoid said eye-slashing.
for fuck's sake, if you're short, that's totally okay, but either hold your umbrella extra-high or be aware of the people you're bullying by and move to the side.

In college I used to have to walk 20 minutes to get to school and when it rained enough I used an umbrella. It was a very cool one with a mean bulldog called Delmore at the end of the handle.
And lifted my umbrella for passer bys.

i just want to interject that this thread was not to be taken seriously at all because i came up with the manliness excuse to cover up for the fact that i am a dumbass who didn't bring an umbrella with him when he went off to lunch.

Then I can admit that I was actually pretty happy when I found that umbrella in my truck the other day, it will certainly come in handy on one of the 5 days out of the year it rains here.Baliset said:

I just like having my hands free, that's why I rarely use umbrellas. oh, and spending way too much on a rainjacket I feel super obligated to use to it's fullest.

every time i share my umbrella with a tall person they just steal it, or expect me to hold it and that's just impossible.

look getting your EYE SLASHED is worse than holding your umbrella six inches higher and getting hit with another six or seven drops of water.

I should point out that umbrellas are super deadly, for those who don't remember this story:

Flashback: Dissident's poisoning
Georgi Markov: Journalist killed by poisoned umbrella
The poison ricin, which has been found by the British police at an address in London, was famously used to murder Bulgarian dissident Georgi Markov in 1978.
Markov, a BBC World Service journalist and a strong critic of the communist regime, was killed in London when he was injected with ricin while he waited at a bus stop.
Nobody has ever been charged with the murder, but it is widely believed that the Bulgarian secret service and the KGB were behind it.
Bulgarian prosecutors said their investigation produced inconclusive results, and the case remains open.
The clever thing about ricin is it appears in hospital investigations as natural disease
Markov pathologist
Accounts of the incident differ. Some say a ricin-laced pellet was either fired or injected from an umbrella tip as Markov waited at the bus stop, on his way to the headquarters of the BBC's World Service.
Other accounts suggest the assailant used a syringe to inject the poison into Mr Markov's leg as he bent down to pick up an umbrella he had been carrying.
He experienced a sudden stinging pain in the back of his right leg, but despite pain continued on his way to work.
By evening Markov had developed a high fever and he died three days later.
Pathologists investigating his death said the poisoning could easily have been missed.
Crucial pellet
"The clever thing about ricin is that it mimics symptoms and appears in hospital investigations as natural disease," Dr Rufus Crompton told BBC Radio 4's Today programme.
The tiny bullet filled with ricin which killed Markov
Dr Crompton described how he used a pig to prove Markov had been killed by ricin.
"It had exactly the same symptoms. It died in the same way; samples of its blood showed the same changes.
"The remarkable thing about this poison is the high white cell count that it produces and there's no other poison that does this."
After weeks of research and experimentation, a coroner ruled that Markov had "been unlawfully killed".
Documents destroyed
It is believed that the assassination was supported by the technical staff of the KGB and may have involved some senior members of the Bulgarian secret police.
In 1992, General Vladimir Todorov, the former Bulgarian intelligence chief, was sentenced to 16 months in jail for destroying 10 volumes of material relating to Markov's death.
A second person suspected of destroying documents committed suicide, while a Bulgarian spy who was believed to be involved in the assassination died in a car accident.
Markov was an acclaimed novelist and playwright in Bulgaria prior to his defection to the West in 1969. He was particularly known for his harsh criticism of the autocratic rule of the then communist leader, Todor Zhivkov, and his broadcasts were seen as providing inspiration to the dissident movement in Bulgaria.
