Why do Turks turn umbrellas into lethal weapons.
I was poked twice in the face this morning by unlicensed umbrella users.
There should be a new law: Anyone shorter than dmb should not be allowed to use an umbrella. |

great thread.... 
speaking of umbrellas, when i told my students to keep working they told me of the turkish expression: you can't open an umbrella when it's up your ***.
it took a while for me to get the meaning....
consider yourself lucky dmb |

This could turn into a rather naughty fill in the blank type activity.
btw has anyone ever not bought a brolly of a guy on the street when it has started raining and you have been caught short(of a brolly) |

I was attacked by a taxi door half an hour ago. Quite innocently walking along the pavement and Bang- I had no chance.
So are Turks born with no spatial awareness regarding people within a metre? |

Yes, that's why they stop in doorways or stop suddenly on a crowded pavement.
It may also explain their inability to queue. |
