We get it New Yorkers. You like your offensively large umbrellas. What could be worse than getting stuck walking behind an extremely slow moving pedestrian?(When you are already running fifteen minutes late for work.) Now, let's add something else to the mix. How about walking behind an extremely slow moving pedestrian carrying an umbrella the size of a small house? So fine, you want to stay dry...I get it. But at least, stay on your side of the street with your gigantic umbrella. Let the rest of us have a prayer of passing you.
Move it buddy, because you are blocking the way of the people in front, behind, to the right and the left of you. And oh yeah, another thing. Please close your umbrellas before you hit the stairs going up or down into the subway. I love it when the remnants of water are flung from your umbrella onto my head. As one subway car lets out, and people race up the stairs to get to work, another group of people try to make that same subway before it pulls away. This means that we are all using the staircase at the same time. When you are coming up the stairs, and your obnoxiously large umbrella is ALREADY OPEN, (c'mon we aren't even outside yet) you are slowing me down, and making me even later for work. Umbrella culture. Who needs it?
