New rule:
If you live in Seattle you can still be a local even if you use umbrellas*

@mawr It's true, a soggy plush is no fun, unless you're running one through the laundry cycle. :-P
@mawr Addendum: some plushes /are/ just waterproof by design. Like @Oneironott !
@emanate @Oneironott True! There are some forms of mawrplush that are waterproof, but that doesn't mean I'm not going carry a colorful accessory that I get to twirl around. :D
New head-cannon from aforementioned new rule:
All Seattle folks who use umbrellas and clearly know where they're going are secretly plush :D
