People run into shelters and wave umbrellas about the place like the water's going to kill them, or the ecosystem has a vendetta against them or something.

What I really dislike is warm sun right after a good rainstorm, esp. in the summer, so that all the lawns and roads start to steam and the air is chokingly humid. blech.
If I'd discovered twee music in high school, I would have been so damn twee, listening to The Sundays while looking at the rain, but instead I listened to shoegazer bands, Portishead and Joni Mitchell, which is pretty good in retrospect.

I do like really really heavy rain though, when it comes down in sheets and the drains can't cope and everyone gapes from their windows. Mostly we just get regular rain though, with occasional drizzle and the odd shower. Interspersed with smir.
Smir, is anyone outside my family familiar with that word?

And I still ADORE rain, even now, having experienced rainfall in the past 24 hours. Driving in the rain can be a pain in the ass, mostly because people around here have no fucking idea how to drive in any sort of precipitation at all, but that's the only drawback to rain I can think of. Gimme lots and lots and lots and LOTS of rain, I say! Let it POUR down!

I really love getting soaked on the way to work and then sitting for a whole morning with trousers that are absolutely wringing/heavy and chafing. It's a rare delight. I also love standing at a bus stop that doesn't have a shelter in the rain for half an hour in Glasgow in December and subsequently having a bout of asthma that keeps me up half the night. Also I love being splashed by cars that have driven through a large puddle that was caused by rain, staining my newly dry-cleaned trousers.
Fuck is wrong with you people?

i do agree that getting heavily rained on is no good. but that feeling when you come home and get dry/warm it rather heavenly.
