To mess with people by laughing at something you feel totally serious about, usually improvised by a group of female friends. The original Nuclear Beauty Parlor was group of Art Punk chicks in San Francisco back in the eighties. They started out getting arrested protesting nuclear weapons and then did street theater dressed in pink beauty parlor smocks and looking good so they wouldn't get beat up by cops. Then music producer Bill Graham liked the lyrics to their theme song and funded the 45 vinyl single recorded by members of The Tubes because the Nuclear Beauty Parlor was not a band. The record is archived at Swarthmore College as an artifact of the nuclear freeze movement. The lyrics to the Nuclear Beauty Parlor song are sweet, look them up.

A perspective on the world inspired by the art of movement, parkour. After training Parkour for a time, traceurs begin to see the obstacles of the world as opportunities. Instead of seeing a railing and a wall, they see a vault and a wallpass. Eventually this “Parkour Vision” can effect other portions of a traceurs life, and they begin to see other obstacles as opportunities. It is being creative and truly adapting to the environment and the ability to see unique and efficient movement opportunities in the environment. In a sense it can become Parkour ADD.
As the traceur walked through the city he could not ignore his Parkour Vision, as it was too over powering to disregard.

Get the parlor snake mug."Parson Brown" is the term used to talk about a typical angelican priest of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. "Parson Brown" is not an actual person (though he might have been at some time), but a figure of speech, like "John Doe" is an unidentified male and "Charley" is a watchman. "Parson" by itself means minister.
The classic line from Winter Wonderland:
"In the meadow we can build a snowman
Then pretend that he is Parson Brown
He'll say 'Are you married ?', We'll say 'No man,
For you can do the job when you're in town.'"
Sure, it sounds like some kind of sexual reference, but its not. It's just a priest asking a couple if they are married. They reply that they are not and that they will wait for him to "do the job" of marrying them when he comes to their town.
