Yes, it seems like I use them so seldom that I forget how to open them and the parascoping ones, how to extend them. Then in exasperation, I finally figure out how to open it, force it open and almost hit someone. Trying to open an umbrella before getting out in the street in a revolving door has got to be the hardest thing I've ever tried to do. It won't open and then a car drives by and splashes mud all over you. So you're getting it from up and down directions.

yes, i remember when i was in highschool it was afternoon and the rain are heavy, the winds blows so strong but we need to go then time to go or else the dark of night catch us in the road, when me and my brother sharing the umbrella that our mother buy for us, we are trying to cover our body with the umbrella while walking from the rain and wind, when all of a sudden the wind blows strong and take our umbrella away so all we do is run for the nearest house nearby because the thunder is so strong too, that is so horriblr that time,, until now i believe my brother still trauma from that time,,, he is now a father of one happy little boy..

I brought my umbrella of trouble twice, once on the bus, outside the big rain, so I get off the train, they can not be opened umbrellas, that my whole body were drenched, and there was also a friend and I shared an umbrella, strong wind and the umbrella upward broken up, feeling very funny.

You still carried that umbrella home or dumped in the nearest bin.
