It just strikes me that Rhianna would be slightly less popular today if she had to sing that. I’ll leave it up to you to decide if that’s a good thing, or a bad thing.
The Nubrella, in case the picture wasn’t painfully obvious, is a full head, hands free umbrella, whose main purpose is to eliminate Umbrella Blow Out, the painful situation that occurs when your umbrella inverts from a gale force gust of wind. Instead, the Nubrella will crush your head into a dewy, ultra carbon dioxided mush.
JK, guys. There's no evidence to suggest that sticking your head in a plastic tent during a rainstorm will cause any sort of hot, steamy mess to form around your face. Just my own natural intuition. Anyway, here’s the official shpiel:
Nubrella is no ordinary umbrella, it stops rain, wind, snow and extreme cold- and keeps your head, face and shoulders drier than ever. It offers more protection, guaranteed! Yet, nubrella went one step further and is changing the game forever. With nubrella’s new patent pending “shoulder straps” and “offset handle” you can now be completely hands free! Yes, nubrella is the first true hands free umbrella in the world. You are probably already imagining all the times you wished you had a hands free umbrella, well now you can. So the time is now to add nubrella to your arsenal of weather protection gear and stay outdoors! Nubrella exploits the fundamental flaws of today’s traditional umbrella design. Many will believe nubrella is a “better mousetrap” for more inclement weather conditions.
As far as I can tell, the Nubrella comes in a variety of colors, including red, brown, black, and “Seriously, no, I’m not retarded, this is just my future umbrella.”
I really, really, really want to see someone ride around on a Segway while wearing one of these. [$59, Nubrella]
