When it rains, what's better to use, an umbrella, or a rain coat? Cause every time I use an umbrella, I always look like a fucking retard trying to hold the umbrella steady as the fucking 15 mph winds are practically throwing it around like it's a fucking ragdoll and my ass is getting wet cause the wind is blowing the rain sideways. And it's always windy when it rains, so like I dunno. Help a nigga out. What should I be using?
>>
>>35065182
You made a post asking about which option is better. Two thirds of your post is you complaining about the umbrella. Zero complaints about the rain coat.

Why are you even asking?
>>
>>35065197
>Zero complaints about the rain coat.
because I have no experience with them you fucking retard

>Two thirds of your post is you complaining about the umbrella.
Did you ever think that maybe someone could step in and offer tips
on how to use the umbrella the right way or even a better umbrella?
WOW WHAT A CONCEPT THAT THERE COULD BE BETTER OPTIONS

>Why are you even asking?
FOR SUGGESTIONS ON WHAT I'M DOING WRONG YOU FUCKING RETARD
>>
>>35065182
When it rains, it pours.
>>
>>35065182
Crazy idea, both. Using an umbrella when it's windy is pretty dumb of you yeah.
>>
>>35066047
But it's ALWAYS windy goddamnit

Also what type of rain coat? There's many different kinds.
>>
>>35066047
I hope you ain't talking about those disposable trash bag quality pocket ponchos you get at Walmart
>>
>>35066047
>yeah use an umbrella
>no don't that's dumb
make up your fucking mind bitch
>>
>>35066084
So do some research and choose one that suits your needs I don't know you.
>>35066098
In what way is that a raincoat? Poncho /= raincoat.
>>
>>35066119
>I don't know you
But you do know me. I have loved you since we were high school sweethearts. Why do you look away when we make love?
>>
>>35066119
>So do some research
The fuck you mean research. I created this thread to find out what YOU would get.
How YOU would deal with this shit. This is about YOU not ME. YOU are the research.
>>
>>35066173
Oh well that's dumb and isn't going to be helpful to you.
>>
>>35066206
You keep saying dumb. Stop that. And you don't know what is helpful to me.
I have explained what is helpful to me and that's me hearing what you would do.
It is not up to you to decide if your experiences can or cannot help me.
That is my job and my job alone. Don't gatekeep your experiences from me.
>>
I don't use an umbrella because it's always windy where I'm from
>what type of raincoat??
The one you have with you
>>
>>35066394
No I need to know the one that YOU use
>>
>>35065182
When chat gpt exist who makes these kinds of threads to wait around for hours when you can get immediate ones? Oh right, bots, because this whole site is bots now. And you're a bot designed to maximize engagement, for whatever reason. A youtube video perhaps? Maybe just getting your small pp slightly erect? In either case, k**l yourself ni***r
>>
>>35066477
I'm not a fucking bot you retard. Just answer the fucking question. Jesus fucking christ, what the fuck is wrong with you people.
>>
>>35066477
ChatGPT is not a person you retard. It doesn't have personal preferences or wisdom that you can learn from. Holy fucking shit. How are you this dense?
>>
>>35066440
Oh, sorry. I use the one I have with me. I hope this helps.
>>
>>35066683
You're being an asshole by deliberately withholding information, thinking you're making some kind of a point.
You're not making any points, you're just refusing to engage with the topic because you think it's beneath you.
In which case you have to face the fact that you are not suited to engage in this thread and thus should fuck off.
>>
>>35066761
I just think you're an idiot with an anger problem, and entitled to boot if you want EVERYONE ELSE to do your research for you. What exactly are you looking for? You don't know, so how are we supposed to know? I needed a rain jacket, so I bought one I liked. You will like a different one, because you are not me, so look for one and buy one that you like.
>>
>>35066780
>you want EVERYONE ELSE to do your research for you.
Where the fuck did I say anywhere in this thread that I want them to do research? Nigga, how is you just telling me how you use your fucking umbrella considered research when all you have to do is just say what's in your fucking head?

>What exactly are you looking for? You don't know, so how are we supposed to know?
I've already explained to you what the fuck I'm looking for. Experiences knowledge and wisdom from people who have used things and know what you should and shouldn't get or do and shouldn't do regarding those things.

>I needed a rain jacket, so I bought one I liked. You will like a different one, because you are not me, so look for one and buy one that you like.
Which one did you like? What brand? Where did you but it? Online? In store? At what price? What material? How thin was it? How tall or short was it? How long did it last before you had to buy a new one? Would you ever buy that brand again? Why?
This is shit that you can regurgitate out of your fucking mouth without having to lift a fucking finger. But you're too much of a fucking ass to just simply share a story and enrich somebody's life because you think this is too much "work" for you. Fuck off.

>and entitled to boot
And apparently I have to teach you how to be a fucking human being. Fuck your ass.
>>
>>35066838
Ahahahaha
>>
>>35066862
No, it's not spoon feeding, you retard. All you gotta do is share your experiences. That's what people on this very board (/adv/) do all the fucking time. It's not that hard, anon. It really isn't. Grow up.
>>
>>35066892
Alright, my experience was that I needed a rain jacket and I bought one that I liked. You're on your own for the rest, big boy
>>
>>35066915
No one forced you to be here. If you don't want to contribute and you have nothing of value to give to the thread, that's fine. Just acknowledge that and get the fuck out.
>>
>>35066939
I was going to give you proper information then saw you're an entitled asshat, so this is what you get instead. If you can't figure this out for yourself, you're a lost cause
>>
>>35067038
It's not entitlement. I don't give a shit whether you post here or not. And I don't need your help to figure anything out. That wasn't even what I asked and you're too dumb to even realize that.
>>
>>35066042
It pours as it rains
>>
>>35071006
No, it pours as it rains.

Umbrellas are a problem when it is windy, yes. You need to keep them angled directly into the wind at all times. But most coats won't keep the rain off your face, which is annoying.

If you're going to buy a rain coat, I suggest getting something made from a breathable fabric like Gore-Tex. If you don't, then you're likely to get condensation inside the coat when you sweat, which will make you damp, even if it keeps the rain out.

As well as figuring out a way to keep the rain off your face, you also need to bear in mind that rain coats don't go down to your feet. Below the level of the coat, you're going to get wet. A long coat might be long enough that if you wear Wellington boots with it, you'll stay dry; but most aren't that long. So to stay completely dry, you may need to invest in some waterproof trousers (worn over your normal trousers) as well.
>>
>>35073128
Yeah, that's what I was thinking, even with an umbrella when it rains sideways in the wind, your pants always get wet, so ya gotta have waterproof pants in addition to waterproof shoes. But dang, imagine if you're walking to your white collar job in a suit. You would need a full on head to toe type of rain coat like you're victor von doom. Gore-Tex? What a weird name for a fabric.
>>
>>35073201
Depending on how bad it is, a large umbrella will often keep you quite dry. Look for a "golf umbrella" - something that's about 5 feet wide.

>Gore-Tex? What a weird name for a fabric.
It's a brand name. The way it works is that it doesn't allow liquid water to pass through it, but water vapour can, so your sweat can still evaporate and escape, instead of condensing on the inside of the coat, which is what normally happens. There are other similar materials now - look for something that is described as "breathable".
>>
>>35065182
Umbrella every time
Just get one with an ergonomic and elegant handle.
>>
>>35065182
Neither. Take the rain like a man
>>
>>35065182
In the US alone, umbrellas harm over thirty thousand people a year. More in property damage.
>>
>>35065182
Go naked if it's raining because judging by your picrel you need a shower.
>>
>>35074925
Mostly patio or beach umbrellas I'm assuming?
>>
>>35074907
>>35074946
lol
>>
>>35074952
I dunno
>>
>>35065182
> I always look like a fucking retard trying to hold the umbrella steady as the fucking 15 mph winds
Use a smaller umbrella. Don't buy the cheap ones. The cheap ones break, pop inside out, and flap around in wind.
>>
>>35065182
If it rains straight down - umbrella
If there's wind forget about umbrella, it's gonna break pretty much immediately
>>
>>35081517
There's always wind. All the fucking time.
>>
>>35082163
The fucking time
>>
>>35065182
Work your forearms out you pathetic faggot. Never in my life have I had trouble stabilizing an umbrella regardless of wind speed. Use your flabby wrists for something other than maneuvering cocks into your mouth.

If you are struggling with umbrella when there's also wind, I assume you are pretty slim and lighter. Light enough that wind can push you back with its trapped force in your umbrella. I can't suggest one, but I don't suggest wearing raincoat because you'd look like Bateman if you choose transparent one. So... maybe you should wear pink latex suit with green latex trousers?
