Working in the city, I see my fair share of people walking around on the streets, as feet are the economically logical, and often times the most efficient way to get from point A to point B, inside of a city.\u00a0 Other times, it\u2019s street rats who can\u2019t afford cars, and have no other alternative methods of travel, but that\u2019s a different story.<\/span><\/p>\n It doesn\u2019t take a genius to know that for the second year in a row, it\u2019s pretty much been the hottest fucking summer ever.\u00a0 But unlike last year, which was mostly just numerous 100-degree weather days, at least is the case here in Georgia, it\u2019s just crippling humidity, day-in, and day-out.\u00a0 Regardless of how it\u2019s the hottest fucking summer ever this year, one thing that remains the same is the fact that there have been their share of really, really beaming sunny days.<\/span><\/p>\n In light of such sunlight, I\u2019ve noticed that people nowadays are equipping themselves with umbrellas, in order to walk around in the daytime.\u00a0 Seriously?<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Umbrellas exist to futilely protect ourselves from precipitation, mostly of the H2O variety.\u00a0 When did people become such pussies that they don\u2019t want to be out in the sun?\u00a0 I\u2019ve known pale freckled gingers who don\u2019t tan at all who would go about their business out in the daytime without the assistance of umbrellas, but nowadays, people seem to be afraid to leave their condos without umbrellas, regardless of the weather.<\/span><\/p>\n Look, I know that there\u2019s not much difference between an umbrella and a parasol, but the fact of the matter is that most parasols aren\u2019t made of the same water-resistant materials that umbrellas are.\u00a0 People aren\u2019t walking around with parasols, they\u2019re walking around with umbrellas \u2013 in the sun.<\/span><\/p>\n At first, I thought it was an Asian thing, as all the Georgia Tech Asians around me were shuffling around with umbrellas on sunny days, making me feel disgust towards them, but as time progressed, I began seeing people of all colors taking part in this sissy exercise.\u00a0 I know the Earth is clearly under attack by the evil UV rays of the sun and that melanoma is a legitimate concern out there, but still, it happens to a very minute percentage of the populous, and most of those affected are genetically dispositioned to be susceptible to the disease in the first place.\u00a0 I don\u2019t understand how people have learned to cower the sun to the point where they\u2019re walking around with portable shelter at all-times from something so beautiful.\u00a0 It\u2019s not like not having an umbrella would result in our skin, flesh and muscle explode off our skeletons like in\u00a0Terminator 2<\/i><\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Working in the city, I see my fair share of people walking around on the streets, as feet are the economically logical, and often times the most efficient way to get from point A to point B, inside of a city.\u00a0 Other times, it\u2019s street rats who can\u2019t afford cars, and have no other alternative … Continue reading Pussification of America: Umbrellas on sunny days<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[45,15,8,96],"class_list":["post-30539","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-brog","tag-fail","tag-og","tag-ohgeorgia","tag-weather"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30539","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=30539"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30539\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":30541,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30539\/revisions\/30541"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=30539"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=30539"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=30539"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
