Haagen Duhhh

So there's a group of us sitting under the picnic table umbrellas in front of the fancy Haagen Daz next to St. Regis Hotel. It's a nice day, but then it starts to sprinkle a tiny bit. We decide, oh hell we'll just sit here, who cares if we get a little wet. Then a waiter rushes over and starts closing all the umbrellas.

"Hey, what are you doing?"
"It's raining."
"Yes. If you haven't noticed, that's why we're sitting under the umbrellas so we don't get wet."

He starts to close the umbrella over us.

"Are you serious? Why are you closing our umbrella?"
"Because it's getting wet!"
"But aren't umbrellas supposed to get wet. What the hell are you doing?"
"Sorry, my manager told me these umbrellas can't get wet."

He continues to close the umbrella.

"If you close this umbrella, we'll all get wet, and then we can't sit here and order our ice cream."
"But the umbrella will get wet!"
"Who cares? It's an umbrella!"
"But it's getting all wet!"
"Has it occured to you that it will still get wet even though it's closed, since it's already sitting here in the rain?"
"Yes, but it'll be closed."

So we all get up and have to leave.
