Reality Check by Dave Whamond for November 28, 2020

The Pied Piper brandished a banjo?

Maybe the Pied Twanger is better with country rats than city ones.

Looking for a comment, then it occurred to me, what if the Pied Piper was a bagpiper? He wouldn’t be leading the mice, he’d be driving them away with the infernal squalling.

Just can’t string ’em along like he used to!

Did you notice some of the rats are wearing earmuffs?

Bound to pick up the children of the country and western crowd though.

It could have been worse…he could have switched to the accordion.

Steve Martin in tights.

The Pied Piper realized he had competition on the other side of town. Dueling banjos!

But if he’s staring at his phone screen, then whatever instrument he’s carrying, he isn’t playing it. Sorta defeats the purpose.

Wait, maybe he’s attracting the rats by making video calls to them. He’s the Pied Skyper!
