The umbrella is a lie

A phrase originating from "the cake is a lie". It is based on the Animal Crossing fanfiction Among the Umbrellas. The reason for it is because Mabel lures the characters Lucia and Shannon into her trap with an umbrella.

Lucia: "Wow, Mabel really got us."
Shannon: "Yeah. One may say the umbrella is a lie."
