With the National Weather Service warning us of flash floods and wind gusts of up to 70 mph, today was shaping up to be a terrible day for not only students, but umbrellas as well. Oh parasols protecting us from pernicious precipitation… we hardly had the chance to know each other. In fact, Bwog’s armchair mathematicians calculated that if the average umbrella costs $15, there is at least $270 worth of broken umbrellas in the pictures that follow.

@Anonymous personally, I beat my umbrella back into submission.
@Anonymous as it should be. once those umbrellas get too uppity, they’ll start demanding rights and we can’t have that.
