People pay little enough attention when walking as it is but it is so much worse that we allow the blathering sheep to walk around unsupervised with the extended eye gougers more commonly known as umbrellas.

I'm above average height so it seems like every rain results in a contest to see who can remove my eyeballs first. I'm surprised we don't see a huge increase in eye patch use after a rain

Put your safety glasses on...

Seriously, I always wonder when I'm going to get my eyes poked out when it rains.

Where I worked in California in the early 80s there was a guy who ALWAYS wore large plastic safety glasses. Somebody told me that when he was a boy a car kicked up a rock which scratched his cornea.

The people around me don't need umbrellas. They take shelter from the storm in my greatness. You must be a manlet.

Doesn't rain a whole hell of a lot here in Colorado, although it's not rare, either. I honestly don't remember the last time I saw a person using an umbrella.
