Jerry does know how to sling the slang, we'll give him that. In fact, his patter is always more amusing than the Violently Ordinary Rejoinder, something which never gets commented upon in these little vignettes. Anyway, here we learn how the Violently Ordinary Rejoinder affects umbrellas.

Thus the mysteries of the Violently Ordinary Rejoinder are gradually revealed.
