For those of us who have a serious hankering to stab a Bulgarian defector but don’t dig the poison kick, here’s a pretty arousing alternative: a lightsaber umbrella. Well, to be more accurate they’re essentially replicas of the umbrellas weilded by hordes of sketchy neo-L.A. denizens from Blade Runner, but apparently I’m more amused by the prospect of assassinating a political refugee with a beam of concentrated awesome.*

*Incidentally, if you are assassinated with a lightsaber umbrella, try and clench your butt-hole as you die. I’m pretty sure that’s what lets you come back as one of those “don’t fuck up, kiddo” ghosts.

And believe you me, they’re well worth it. Yes, I bought one. The build quality of the Um would make Mary Poppin confident to fly through a tornado and kick Chuck Norris in the balls.
Truly, it is an umbrella to love.

I’ve always wanted to hold lightsaber fights as I twirl Gene Kelly like around lamp posts in steamy afternoon storms. Now I totally can!

well the word “stabbings” originally caught my attention, but to possess an item such as this it would make the owner…. a permanent bad-ass.
