"A regular lightsaber is normally used to attack someone but put the word 'rain' in front of it and you have an umbrella.
Just an umbrella. All is not lost however, since sturdy umbrellas may also be used to attack man and beast when the occasion beckons."
Via BoingBoing.

We had a thread on something like this once, right? Fighting w/ umbrellas and such.
-
I want a glowing umbrella, not least because it is very cold and grey and rainy out.
-
So much for gun control.
-
I have a child-sized umbrella whose handle is a plastic Darth Vader figure. Should I not have admitted that?
-
Those umbrellas with the glowing handle/rod that they had in Blade Runner looked pretty cool.
-
Indeed. As long as one doesn't fill it with napalm...
-
...sturdy umbrellas may also be used to attack man and beast when the occasion beckons Or beastly men, if necessary. *exit old GramMa in saggy print dress, flowered hat, and support hose

An umbrella with a hidden weapon... John Steed did it so much better.
-
Watch it, Wendell, you're dating yourself. I'd have dated John Steed in my youth, or rather in his. And Dianna Riggs was hot.
-
Umbrella Lights, for those dark, rainy nights.
-
I have a man-sized condom that I wrap myself in when it rains or when I start to ooze.
-
$85 is a little much for an umbrella, even if it does sport a shadowy Darth Vader figure. I spent $3.99 last night on a Darth Vader with a spinning lollypop coming out of his head (he also raises and lowers his lightsaber, very slowly) and I think that's gonna be it for my personal star wars related consumer spending index.

Idunno -- those Darth Vader helmets with voice-changing action are calling to me. Slap on the helmet, and staff meetings are bound to go much better. "Layoffs are coming... search your feelings, you know it to be true." Things may tighten up a bit here, once I start choking staff's tracheas with my mind.
