I have an umbrella named Jason. At night, after I go to sleep, he beats up kittens and old people.
Not all umbrellas are nice.

Living in England, one meets many umbrellas, many of which appear to be frustrated eye surgeons. Most of them also dislike wet or windy weather, and will fold up or blow away to get out of it as quickly as possible. I don't know where they come from, but wherever it is I wish we'd never colonised it.
I bet the umbrellas he spoke to said little but 'Kill, kill, kill'. They do not like people, and they are not in my country used for 'shade' (root ombre) but eyeball assault. Last conference I attended in Glasgow dispensed free BigPharma-labelled umbrellas, but I threw mine out. I've never used one, yet am still alive despite many years of being dampened by rain. It does not kill you, contrary to popular belief. It does spoil hairstyles, but who wants those anyway?
The click-whoomph of the action of a gent's push-button job is akin to the satisfaction of opening a well-made flicknife though. I can only begin to imagine the joy of owning one of those bulgarian poison jobs, let alone using it.

Whatever happened to the type that incorporates its own mini-precipitation system, so that when it's held over the head the user experiences their own private pluvial experience? This kind is quite common in cartoons but does not seem to be available to people like me, who enjoy the rain but are not particularly animated.
