<p>Umbrellas are not worth it. Don’t agree? Try this logic.</p>
<p><strong>Pro</strong></p>
<ol>
<li>1. Your head stays relatively dry.</li>
</ol>
<p><strong>Cons</strong></p>
<ol>
<li> 1. The below-the-knee portion of your leg becomes extra soaked because the water that would be on your head is dispersed to this area.</li>
<li>2. Having soaked feet is worse than having a wet head.</li>
<li>3. You always have a hand that can’t do anything except hold an umbrella.</li>
<li>4. You always have to concern yourself with the space the umbrella takes up or you will poke a stranger’s eye out and they will sue you (and rightfully so).</li>
<li>5. What do you do with the umbrella when you go inside? You create a trail of water for someone to slip on.</li>
<li>6. Ever used an umbrella on a windy day?</li>
<li>7. When you are not careful you pinch your fingers when you close it (which is often, because you are in a hurry to close the umbrella because you are inside).</li>
<li> 8. An open umbrella inside is bad luck. Do you actually want to carry something with you that could very easily be bad luck?</li>
</ol>
