Mummers are on

Say what? Is that some kind of coded language? Would it happen to be related in any way to January 6?

Could be a mistake out of spell check.

Drunken men dressed as women, and drunken women dressed as monsters or clowns in the most garish costumes imaginable.

Putting crap like those fliers in a mailbox is a federal crime. Good on the mummers who celebrate today!

I’m a little disappointed in the turn out. Anyone that is familiar with the mummers parade understand it is huge. Many people spend countless hours preparing their costumes and practicing throughout the year. I saw zero instruments and zero string bands. I suppose they took off the year. God bless those that did turn out.

As Barr and Durham would say "Nothing to see here. Everything's normal."

Need a lot more Americans to stand up and give the tyrants a middle-finger wave. If it offends some, they can just pretend that they are waving with their whole heart.

Listen to the song “Mummer’s Dance” by Loreena McKennitt. Sublime.

I saw zero instruments and zero string bands.

They were probably afraid of violent confiscations. Police are all over the streets. The clown clubs have the cheapest costumes and can run the easiest.
