  • In 18th century Britain, a man carrying an umbrella could
    expect to be pelted with garbage. But that would all change when one
    lifelong loser and chronic wedgie victim finally snapped. We're
    talking about Jonas Hanway: the insufferable dork who popularized
    the umbrella - through the power of violence.

    I wonder what is says that the most shocking thing about this to me was hearing someone with an English accent say they hated tea.

    Umbrellas ARE dangerous. Just ask the Penguin! Preferably when he's not holding his flamethrower umbrella...

    Not having an umbrella or a rain slicker in the coast may prove problematic..

    I can actually see the tea criticisms having some merit back in the day. Britain had to import tea from east Asia at great expense from countries that did not want british goods. This lead to a significant trade deficit & would be one of the causes of the opium wars between Britain & China in the 19th century. Was Mr Hanway thinking that far ahead? Probably not. My guess, he just didn't like it & somebody wrote down what he said.
