Mnemonic Stories

A condom is a little umbrella designed for one body part. It has to be a perfect fit to be safe when you use it at the main entrance.

Under the massive corporate umbrella, there's only one true entrance to the executive suite. You have to be a perfect cultural fit to get the key.

The truly depraved may find that there's one entrance in their body that they can fit a whole umbrella in.

"I'm not sure it'll fit," she whispered, looking at the one massive... item... he wanted to bring through the back entrance. It was a golf umbrella and the door was tiny.
