In the middle of a downpour these people would believe they no longer needed their umbrella because they havent gotten wet recently.

We just had a downpour (COVID-19) and many of them were trying to blame it on umbrellas.

Yes and then they get drenched and track it all over the house causing others to slip and get hurt.

...and then blame the unused umbrellas.

I'm pretty sure they blame the others for not being more careful and that they if only they slipped and fell more often it wouldn't hurt so much.
