    Everyone should help by striking a mime.

    These mimes are in support of the Chinese protest against censorship. Go mimes!

    Apparently these mimes aren’t good enough to be able to make it look like they are holding signs without actually holding signs.

    On strike? That would imply that somebody was actually employing them to begin with.

    You know, I’ve never talked to anyone who actually knows a mime. I mean, really, does anyone actually talk to a mime? Is there a mime club somewhere? Who stands up for mime rights and mime wages? What are the statistics of mime crime? What is someone is out there murdering mimes? OMG!!

    I think the collective noun for mimes is a “gesture”. As in, "a “gesture” of mimes has gone on strike for visible wages".

    We have/had a Palace Theater. It was used for a stage performance and less than a week later the ceiling collapsed. The owner donated the remains to the city. The city has made it into an outdoor theater.

    If mimes went on strike they’d be shouting so loud that people would pay them more just to shut them up!
