Umbrellas
You know the scene, rainy days and Mondays. Everyone holds their umbrella above their head to protect it from the rain, and for some reason, still has the desire to squint their eyes and shrug their shoulders as if it will keep them a bit dryer. From now on, let’s try to keep our eyes open to avoid jabbing strangers in the face with our umbrellas. If you haven’t noticed, most umbrellas are roughly twice the width of your fragile, water-fearing bodies. This indicates that when walking near someone while holding your umbrella, you’ll probably have to move it to avoid a collision. This does not require you to get wet; it doesn’t even require you to try that hard. Simply tilt the umbrella so that the closest part near the on-coming pedestrian is now above your head. This will provide adequate space for the individual ducking and dodging your sword-stabbing tactics and still keep you dry.
