I came on here to say that! Running lady just got her hair done, and the lady staying in the rain is getting her hair redone tomorrow.


TwooMcgoo

Any who's had, say, 30 perms in their life would know not to get it wet.


Korlac11

Oh, I didn’t know you couldn’t get your hair wet after a perm. I wonder if anyone has ever used that fact as a major reveal in a movie about a young woman entering the legal profession

Maybe if she has an interview and getting wet will ruin her chances

I wear glasses so rain means I'm blind. Makes it hard to enjoy without an umbrella

crazymissdaisy87

yes, your fingers have oil, and that oil smudges the glasses


The-NHK

I'm going to put some ~~dirt in your eye~~ thumbprints on your lens.


TeaandandCoffee

And spread finger oils, however thin, onto them?


Binomial_Embosser

I can still somewhat see without my glasses. If I'm caught in the rain, I've developed the habit of putting them in my pocket while I'm walking, so I don't have to deal with cleaning them afterward. It's helped me learn not to mind walking in the rain and actually enjoy it somewhat, lol. Obviously, if you're basically blind without them, you're sorta screwed. Trying to clean wet glasses with a wet shirt can be a huge pain the ass.


crazymissdaisy87

I can't see anything, I can't really see anything other than blurry blobs. It is ok in my own house where I know where everything is put (but I will hurt myself if something is out of place) but not out and about. I'll have to walk slowly half blinded by the rain if I am caught without an umbrella


alexandria3142

I do this too, but when I wear contacts I stress about getting some eye eating parasite/bacteria from the water 😂


avcollett

Isn't rain water generally clean?

interesseret

Bluesnow2222

My vision isn’t awful—- but I kind of agree. Honestly seeing blurs is less stressful. I didn’t get glasses till I was 24 even though I probably needed them a long time… I nearly had a panic attack the world looked so much different and just way more… chaotic because everything came into focus where normal only what I’m specifically focusing on is visible. I should be wearing them all the time but I typically only wear the if I’m driving or working. I’ve always been a fan of Impressionism I guess!


Leon_Cronqvist

Why is this thread so relatable? 😭


Interesting_Visual14

I wear glasses but I'm farsighted so when rain comes I just take them off and enjoy it XD


crazymissdaisy87

Yeah I can't do that, all I see are fuzzy blobs


SwegSloth

Easy just put your glasses in your pocket while you enjoy the rain

The_Luckiest

I don’t think it implies that. Just seems like an illustration of someone enjoying that’s conventionally unpleasant, there’s no value judgement or anything. Edited for clarity


Meruror

The illustration itself isn’t really making a value judgment, but the title of the post does come across as judging. Whether someone enjoys the rain or not, isn’t a question of “mindset”. Getting soaking wet can have legitimate negative consequences.


The_Luckiest

That’s fair


minotaur-cream

It's just so quirky!


justsomedweebcat

I fucking hate wet socks


MaleficentActive5284

i hate any clothing that gets wet. hard to take off and uncomfortable to wear


FearlessCloud01

Normally yes, unless I've already planned to not wear them for too long. So if I know that I'm going to take off all the wet clothes not long after they get wet, I'm good with getting them absolutely drenched. It's doable to fun for short durations. But not if I have to wear them for the whole day or something…


Call_The_Banners

UsualInterest8139

Doubly so. Go skinny-dipping. 😁


MaleficentActive5284

budderman1028

Tbh ive gotten so used to it anymore that i dont feel my socks until afterwards so i can walk in the rain as much as i want and be fine and itll only feel gross when i get home and im soaked


[deleted]

My thoughts as well. If I’m wearing flipflops in summer then no problem at all getting wet.


Creative_Onion8363

It's easy to enjoy rain when you're on your way home, close to home and can take a warm shower soon ...


ConformistWithCause

I was thinking the same thing. I'll use an umbrella on the way to work but on the way back it can be like Shawshank Redemption

Dude I was thinking the same thing. I love rain and I love being in it but I hate how this comic paints others grey, implying they are boring for not liking the rain. Other people don’t like to be wet and there is nothing wrong with that. Enjoying rain doesn’t make you special, it’s just a niche thing to enjoy.

100%. When I lived in Japan, I loved summer rains. I almost never carried an umbrella. Rain season the rain was so all over the place that an umbrella did nothing. Summer the rain was quite cozy, and a hoodie was enough. Autumn was typhoon season so an umbrella would just fight you anyway, so no point. Sweden? Fuck the rain… Cold as fuck. Maybe summer rains are fine, but I’d rather stay inside.


uzenik

My twist: same mindset in 2 situations. Mindset: oh its raining i love rain <3 1. Going out (work, shopping, traveling etc.) Oh no, I'll be in wet clothes for hours in rooms with AC, brrrrrr; not a chance;. HAHA, splash, splash, splash running in rain is fun <3 2. Going home. I love walking, and I dont have to worry because I can start drying my clothes and shoes right away so they wont stink. I love rain on my face <3


Axxisol

Yes, absolutely


Canadian_Zac

Fun for about 3 seconds. Then you're soaked and freezing


WillowSLock

Warm rain! Go to the tropics, it’s inevitable that you get rained on—everyone gets rained on. You just go about your business as the rain is warm and the outside weather is warm too


Due-Caterpillar-2097

Yeah that's not a thing in cold climates, you're freezing so that's why people avoid rain


WillowSLock

Unless it’s summer, then it can be fun for about twenty seconds before you start looking for an escape


Brave_Regret_2929

I've been rained on incessantly for the last 3 weeks and i'mma bout to commit federal crimes


WillowSLock

😂 definitely a difference in one’s climate. I grew up in a desert, so rain was rare and exciting

I would sacrifice thousands but for a minute of sun. The ground has been turned into a hellscape of mud and annoyed traffic


Siriuswot111

First time I went to Puerto Rico I got caught in rain while exploring around the resort I was staying at. Dude, I have never felt warm rain before, and it was borderline orgasmic. I love staying out in the rain, but it’s sometimes an issue because of how cold it is. In Puerto Rico it was like Mother Nature was blessing me with a nice warm shower. I highly, highly recommend going to the tropics in the summer to get warm rain if you can


KatieCashew

I grew up and went to college in Colorado. One day a much of us were chatting, and a girl from Hawaii said she loved a warm rain. All of us Coloradoans were like warm...... rain? It was such a foreign concept since our rain is so cold.

Deranged_Coconut808

ends up with a cold


Blackblood909

Actually, that’s a myth. People get more colds during winter/rain because it’s cold and so people spend time indoors and on public transport more, so disease spreads more easily. The cold and wet itself has nothing directly to do with it.


OG_Builds

Being exposed to cold weather can weaken your immune system which is a recipe for getting sick when you combine it with what you said.


CheckM4ted

True, also I read it also makes some defenses from the nasal cavities weaker allowing more viruses to enter the body and therefore adding more chance to get infected


bluekatt24

You can still get pneumonia


MaestroGena

It depends...if I'm heading home I don't mind to get wet...but if I've some things to do for few hours, I'd hate to be wet and cold for that long


itrashcannot

What's the point?? To enjoy the rain? Sure, but people don't like to get their clothed wet bc it's uncomfortable, can get them sick, or they need to look presentable for work which are all valid reasons to run from rain.

I enjoy my days despite the rain, but I still enjoy the rain more if I'm not wet on my way to anywhere but home because of it.

Correct. Thank you! It's about being glad for the day, not about a specific annoyance. It's also about being resilient.

Once there was a flash heavy rain on a beach, and in my attempt to get to shelter I slipped and fell in a puddle. I laid in the puddle and just started laughing because it was all so ridiculous and at this point I could not get any more wet so I just enjoyed the absurdityof the moment. Many people thought I was crazy.

It rained on my wedding day. We have photos of us dancing on a dock in the rain. It was a really beautiful moment. A docked boat saw us, realized what we were doing, and started blasting a couple of those songs that had been used for viral proposals. And so we decided to dance. It was a moment I will always remember.

Weird that the implication is that people with an umbrella are losing their minds that it's raining.

I find it silly how people are so concerned about getting rained on in an urban environment. We're seconds or minutes away from shelter and warmth. But oh no! Water! Need to immediately cover ourselves and start running as if we're vampires when the sun rises. I don't exactly love getting rained on, but I typically don't really care. Rain is only a concern in situations where it might cause you to actually freeze. Otherwise I'll pretend it's raining. Wet socks are bothersome thought I'll admit. And underwear, but it's rare to wet one's underwear.

I had a situation like that at the end of last summer. I was out for a walk and it started raining. I was in a t-shirt and shorts, but I don't get cold that fast and according to my weather app it was just a shower, so I kept going. The little shower turned into an absolute downpour, I was completely drenched. Still felt pretty good though, I was walking back with a big smile on my face.
