Umbrellas Are Antiquated

Yesterday, it rained very hard for a very long time. And as Lauren put it, I was one of the .01 percent of New Yorkers without an umbrella. As I was sprinting home with a jacket over my head (hard to do), I wondered, "How, in this day and age when we have things that can tell what song is playing on the radio, are we still using upside down baskets to protect us from the rain?"

I really think we could come up with something better.

  1. I am with you in that .01%. One time this lady let me share hers. It was bro-mantic.

    We should use shampoo that deflects rain. Or better yet, find an invention that makes rain extinct. Like dinosaurs are.
