@RogerWilco my margarita scale is based on the dumbest thing Iâve done at max-margarita count prior to passing out. 14 was my limit (standard 6oz mixed) and I still have the Cigar Store Indian statue.
These umbrellaâs would be around 19 margaritas in, with serious liver damage and alcohol poisoning, when Iâd buy one.
@Woody1 They need to include a thing that looks like a Bluetooth speaker but actually holds the plastic bottle from this when you are using the umbrella.
And letâs be honest, pretty much everyone that buys and uses this will forget to air the umbrella out later and will go to use it again a month later to be assaulted with mold spores!
Considering I can never get an umbrella to go back into those nylon sock-thingies, I donât think this is for me. Every umbrella Iâve ever owned grew twice its (folded) size after the first use.
@TheFLP The large golf umbrellas do okay, you can pull the strap tight and it wraps up close to the original size. I started using those in college since it could keep my backpack dry, too.
@TheFLP, you could give it to your mother {i mean, on Mothersâ Day-before you jump on my ass}, so you can drive her crazy like you have since you were born [maybe]!
The only purpose I could see for this is to leave the bottle in your car so you donât toss a wet umbrella on the floor. Itâs easier to just use a plastic bag.
Iâm gonna buy this just as a conversation piece [or 2 pieces] even though most people will just think I have a water bottle, or an umberella & a water bottle. That said, whereâs the Purple one? I need to purchase some item since meh is charging me $4.99 for shipping, even when thereâs nothing to ship!Âż
itâs nice that they give the dimensions for the bottle but am I the only one who wonders how big the umbrella is? not that it matters, I have enough water bottles and umbrellas (single purpose for each btw)
This could actually be pretty handy for public transitâon a crowded bus/subway, thereâs no totally right way to hold a wet umbrella without getting yourself or others a bit wet. This will be a nice upgrade from stuffing it in a spare plastic bag.
The only application I can think of for buying this is to smuggle an umbrella into an outdoor venue like a stadium where you are not allowed to have umbrellas. âThis? Oh, thatâs just my water bottle.â
@goldnectar There is almost twice as much blue than red. Blue = 191, Red = 94. But then how much red is necessary before blue is considered to be purple? The bottle has Blue = 184, Red 66, but looks more blue than the umbrella does. Maybe it has something to do with the green that is added. Lucky for me, Iâm not a color scientist as I wouldnât perform well in that field.
OK that is a really silly item. Might actually be pretty useful. However, Iâm in the Pacific Northwest, where it rains all the time, or at least, it used to. Not so much anymore. And we donât use umbrellas here, at least the locals donât. You can tell the tourists by their umbrellas. Here we either use Gore-tex, or get wet and enjoy it.
this is actually a great idea. but, i have no use for an umbrella. (i prefer to just wear something with a hood or take an uber.) umbrellas usually only serve to get destroyed by the wind and/or hassle other pedestrians trying to get by.
We hardly use umbrellas in the island itâs too pricey n locals lives from farming n sea foods. We go mud slides during rainy days. Itâs so much fun. Or we go to the wharf & deep diving hhhh cheers everyone

I love purple.
@Barney, I love ribs!!
What the hell?
@phendrick Anyway, my insurance agent already said I have an umbrella policy.
But, finally, I have a way to carry an umbrella on my bicycle. My life is complete.
@phendrick, but do you have a bottle, not a water, or liquor bottle?
Soooooo⊠I drink out of this, yes?
@nolrak You can drink out of almost anything that holds liquid.
Let that moisture really become vintage in that water bottle
@thechinglish, aged=moldish!
Viola, no dripping.
Cello, no mess.
Bassoon, youâre safe from the monsoon.
@djslack Whatâs a little dyslexia amongst friendsâŠ
God yes. Absolutely need this.
/image supreme-tolerant-salsa
This will be perfect for all those times when I wished I had an umbrella that could fit comfortably in my cup holder
on the margarita scale, this one is alcohol poisoning.
@alacrity I want that margarita⊠but not this umbrella.

@alacrity @RogerWilco, especially if it opened up inside your stomach. Dam, that hurt just posting the 1st sentence!!
Instructions unclear meh caught in toaster.
Perfect âwater bottleâ for taking to office meetings. Handy defense if conflict gets out of hand!
/giphy but_why
@rileyper, why not?
And what in the hell are you supposed to do with the stupid plastic bottle that doesnât even have the clip on it while youâre using the umbrella?
@Woody1 fill it up with water, and quaff!
@Woody1 my first thought exactly!!
@Woody1 They need to include a thing that looks like a Bluetooth speaker but actually holds the plastic bottle from this when you are using the umbrella.
The purple one should be called Purple Rain.
And letâs be honest, pretty much everyone that buys and uses this will forget to air the umbrella out later and will go to use it again a month later to be assaulted with mold spores!
@savvysapphire mmmmmmâŠâŠ Spores.
Another silly solution to a problem that not only doesnât exist, but that no rational person would have even conceived of.
Bravo, Meh. You have now surpassed peak Meh and redefined the very parameters of Meh-dom.
@shahnm, yes, they have moved from meh-ish to your meh-dom!!
Considering I can never get an umbrella to go back into those nylon sock-thingies, I donât think this is for me. Every umbrella Iâve ever owned grew twice its (folded) size after the first use.

@KevinS10 @TheFLP, well, la-di-da, i mean, good for you!
@KevinS10
Hard to fit one of those in a bag (or backpack). If I canât take it with me all the time, Iâll get caught without it on a regular basis.
This is the perfect product for desert dwellers. When the water runs out, you know it is time to put the umbrella away and go indoors.
/giphy unmoving succinct tick
wait⊠nope.
You canât fool me Meh! I know the smell of an old soggy umbrella. I donât need to trap that scent in a bottle.
Stupid rain.
It rains here two weeks out of the year. And even then, most of you wouldnât even call it rain.
/giphy Soooooo⊠nope.
I was so close in buying, but I realized Iâd have to carry an empty bottle and an umbrella if I wanted to use it.
just want I want in my free hand not holding the umbrella, a cup for my umbrella.
Took me a few seconds to figure out what you meant.
Sounds like a great way to grow some mold
The only purpose I could see for this is to leave the bottle in your car so you donât toss a wet umbrella on the floor. Itâs easier to just use a plastic bag.
ââŠJust remember to air-dry the umbrella later.â
SO meh.
Iâm gonna buy this just as a conversation piece [or 2 pieces] even though most people will just think I have a water bottle, or an umberella & a water bottle. That said, whereâs the Purple one? I need to purchase some item since meh is charging me $4.99 for shipping, even when thereâs nothing to ship!Âż
@decoratedwarvet Theyâre calling the blue one âpurple gemâ
ÂŻ\_(ă)_/ÂŻ
@therealjrn, yeah, i found that out when i went to check-out. Damn, i wanted a Blue one!! The White one will eventually be Black & White!
/giphy phenomenal-overactive-dancer
I used these. Back when I was a super villian. But not anymore. Damn you Flying Mammal Man!!
itâs nice that they give the dimensions for the bottle but am I the only one who wonders how big the umbrella is? not that it matters, I have enough water bottles and umbrellas (single purpose for each btw)
@burckhartjack Amazon says 36x22. Waiting for a reply from meh.
@burckhartjack @RiotDemon 38" x 38" x 22"
This could actually be pretty handy for public transitâon a crowded bus/subway, thereâs no totally right way to hold a wet umbrella without getting yourself or others a bit wet. This will be a nice upgrade from stuffing it in a spare plastic bag.
@SadEthnicChild And if someone next to you is choking, you can offer them a swig of your delicious umbrella water! Win-win!
/image moldy water
@ddbelyea I mean, or I can just dump out the water and dry out the umbrella when I get to work/home.
@SadEthnicChild How does that help the person choking next you?
@ddbelyea Iâm commuting on crowded mass transit on a rainy day. Why would I care about the welfare of my fellow human beings?
Voila*
@adamwesv Oui, nâest pasâŠ
The only application I can think of for buying this is to smuggle an umbrella into an outdoor venue like a stadium where you are not allowed to have umbrellas. âThis? Oh, thatâs just my water bottle.â
Seems right for those sunny camp pickup lines, no mold risk involved!
/giphy adhesive-immature-knot
Is it just me or my screen? That âpurpleâ option looks blue af.
@goldnectar There is almost twice as much blue than red. Blue = 191, Red = 94. But then how much red is necessary before blue is considered to be purple? The bottle has Blue = 184, Red 66, but looks more blue than the umbrella does. Maybe it has something to do with the green that is added.

@cengland0
@cengland0 @goldnectar
Thereâs a new one - Pink and white or Green and grey? I call grey and green.
@goldnectar I love purple.

@pmarin
Ahh, you made me laugh! Born/raised in King Co. WA. Proud to say I still have my durable webbed feet and mossy back. LOL
this is actually a great idea. but, i have no use for an umbrella. (i prefer to just wear something with a hood or take an uber.) umbrellas usually only serve to get destroyed by the wind and/or hassle other pedestrians trying to get by.
Iâm thinking this might be a good choice for the âone itemâ you can bring with you on Naked and Afraid.
These are super dumb.
No
Has Irk always had BABY ARMs?
@kdemo I MISSED THE BABY ARMS!
@sammydog01 - They are back, baby!
Though I love the concept of the cased umbrella
, the quality of the umbrella absolutely sucks!
We hardly use umbrellas in the island itâs too pricey n locals lives from farming n sea foods. We go mud slides during rainy days. Itâs so much fun. Or we go to the wharf & deep diving hhhh cheers everyone
