A random question that crossed my mind the other day while walking in the rain (and excuse to play with the poll feature):
☂️ Which hand do you hold an open umbrella in?
(If you, like my parents, start your answer with "🧐 It depends on [insert a ton of variables]", please choose what you would consider your most common/default approach.)
...also I just realized that I seem to only have 4 options. Well, now I know.

Wish I could've specified left-handed in left hand, left-handed in right hand, right-handed in left hand, right-handed in right hand... but it is what it is at this time. Thank you for your participation in developing our understanding of umbrella-handedness lol

@maiji@mastodon.art I'll have to pay attention the next time I'm out in the rain, but I think I like to switch the longer I hold it. I grabbed an umbrella just now and my dominant (right) hand was my first choice, so I went with "ambidextrous, in right hand"
