Lasso street mimes with a(n invisible) rope and drag them away, kicking and silently screaming; make a big pile out of them. Now watch as they're all scrunched up trying to get out of the big invisible box.
Cartoon: Mime Interrogation
http://www.gocomics...sequitur/2010/01/16 A comment on the same page as the cartoon asks, "If you shoot a mime, do you have to use a silencer?" [Vernon, Jul 19 2017]

For added irony, place the box in the front garden of a School for the Blind ...... |
|
|
hehe+ (do you think they'll *say* anything about it?) |
|
|
"Oh dear - it looks like the box is getting smaller..." |
|
|
What about all those "human statues" ? |
|
|
Break off their arms and bury them in the sand. |
|
|
So the Venus de Milo *is* a fossil, after all. |

I think it would be great fun to actually put them all in a giant glass box whose walls pressed in via hydraulics. We could then video tape this, edit out the wall seams and hydraulics and of course, edit out the screaming (unless they are really true to character). |

As a professional mime myself (see www.serioussilliness.com), I should explain a couple of things - which I think I can do without violating the Sacred Mime Oath... |
|
|
All mime boxes are equipped with special egress portals, which can be accessed using a special invisible key that all professional mimes are issued at the end of their training. This was required by the Consumer Products Safety Commission after some nasty asphixiation incidents at children's parties. We also carry small invisible chainsaws, acetylene torches, and lasers. Let me put it this way: We can't do *everything* a toon can do, but we can get close. |

I think mimes would secretly love this. Ok, I'll go
for it anyway. |
|
|
There neeeds to be thumbscrews and battery acid. |
|
|
Oh my god. I didn't see this till now. Oh my god.
Now I remember why I love the bakery. This is
priceless. Five buns and a fake glittery star to
place on your nose.+ |
|
|
I love that there is a category for this. |
|
|
Why wouldn't there be ? After all, given the choice between watching a mime and losing a foot to a mine, the majority of the audience will cheerfully accept the traumatic amputation of a portion of a lower limb. |
