Umbrella people

I would like to think few things annoy me, though, I would also like to be an honest person and am not sure this is so true. I think a lot of things probably annoy me, actually I know they do. The one that got me again today, is the umbrella people. That is my name for them at least, now, I am not against umbrellas at all, they come in very hand, especially in a city where rain (light, misty, somewhat also annoying rain) is a common happening. Though I am still a much bigger fan of the rain jacket and shoes. I personally think I have the best rain gear... the only thing missing is a trench coat, though I am in no rush to get this. I have the two most wonderful coats, one a black arc'teryx (if this means nothing to you... you need to know it, and check out more outdoor gear). The other is a wonderful Barbour (if this means nothing to you... traditional British brand that you really should be aware of!) It is a dark forrest green with the most wonderful pink rose liberty material. Then there is the oh so wonderful black hunter boots (with neoprene lining, for added warmth and comfort). I mean, really.... what else do you need. Ok, I do have an umbrella, though when I am carrying it, I refuse to be an... "umbrella" person.
You are probably asking yourself what exactly what an "Umbrella person" well, let me tell you. An Umbrella person is one of those annoying people whom seem to have no concept of how much room their umbrella takes up. These are the people whom run into you, or collide with others carrying umbrellas, or possibly worst, catch you in between them and another umbrella person. Ugh! If it is barely sprinkling, are you really so precious that you must have an umbrella? Are you made of sugar and oh so sweet where you just might melt? Ya, for some reason, I just don't think so... so put your umbrella away!
Anyway, there is my rant, I recommend everyone just get better rain gear so you don't have to carry around a big awkward tent around with you! :)
