It's one of the most realistic feelings I have experienced.
Don't even get me smurfing started on umbrellas
"I sweat a lot, so I have to keep my arms as far apart as possible."
I have a raincoat and an umbrella. I rarely have occasion to use them. I would like to use them more often because the umbrella especially is cute.
Signature by rubah. I think.
I want to hear Jiro's opinion on umbrellas that open using velcro.
Those non-britishislesian fairies obviously don't know real rain.

What's wrong with people using umbrellas?!
Because it's the most arseholish way to stay dry ever. Not only does it not really keep you that dry, because most rain doesn't fall in a vertical fashion, but it also redistributes rain onto everyone surrounding you. Additionally, you're waving a collection of spikes in everyone's faces (everyone's). It is the most inefficient and inconsiderate way to attempt to stay dry devised by humankind.
It keeps your FACE dry, atleast! A hood doesn't do that! Frankly, I'm not sure why you're complaining. Something that keeps you dry, wards off strangers to stand farther away from you and something you can use to beat the trout out of someone else? No, umbrellas rule.
Psh, who veers away from umbrella wielders? Decent folk just push that tit out the way!
