American and never heard of this stupidity. But homecoming, as its aptly named, is about alums coming home for The Big Game once a year.

FYI for my fellow Americans and also for the foreign horde: this homecoming mum nonsense is not American at all, it's Texan, Texas being a quasi-functioning parasite nation the USA absorbed in 1845 under the rationalization that access to Texan coastland, oil and cattle was worth tolerating the existence of Texan people and culture.

It's funny to me that a state born from the failed revolution and failed economy of a failed republic which went begging to the US government for economic and military security in secret meetings now begets people that stomp around and shout at anyone within earshot about how badass they are and that nobody should mess with them.

Can we cut to the most important issue here: how old are those girls/women? I need to know whether the people who would shag them are normal or horrible monsters.

Apparently the tradition started with a corsage featuring a live flower, usually a mum, worn for the homecoming dance. Then "everything's bigger in Texas" happened, and now the poor girls need a neck strap to wear their monstrously mutated corsages.

so i had to fuckin google it as gbs service level is at usual low. Wikipedia it says :

Home cumming aka hoe cumming is the tradition of welcumming back students of a school. It is a tradition in many universities and high :420: schools in the United States, Cumada and the Phallostines[1]. It usually includes activities for students, such as water sports, cullingual events, and a gay parade through the streets of the city or town. Home cumming aka hoe cumming should not be confused with pron, as they occur at different times of the year. Home cumming aka hoe cumming usually occurs in the fall, and pron usually occurs in the spring

The tradition is more or less the moms and daughters do it unless you have a "different" sort of family but lets be real gay parents wouldn't let their child wear a mum and if you have a dead mom you're probably in a whole different place mentally to accept it. So for the unbroken white bread the escalation is actually a competition between moms to outspend and 'beat' other moms on the audacity of the mums they staple to their daughter. At least that's how all the ladies at michaels explained it to me who were buying 500 yards of ribbon before homecoming.

They are actually pinned to the shirt and so you have to pin the loving things to your bra strap so they don't weigh your neckline down past the dresscode length. All of those girls have at least three mums on them, although there ARE "triple mums" in the shape of a heart... anyway, you get them from your mentors in your extracurriculars sometimes, and from the people you're going to the dance with and all that poo poo. It's like letter jackets, but stupider somehow.

the boys wear "garters" if you want to google some good poo poo.

Look closely, the ones in the op have neck straps. It's basically an apron made of foofoo.

This is a US thing? I'm like 70% sure I live in America, and have no idea what this is. I mean I know that Homecoming is a thing that high school kids who don't have any weed go and do, but I'm assuming that stapling Koala bears to your tits is an Australian thing.

It's a very, very Midwestern / Texas thing. I'd never heard of them either until I lived in OK for a brief time. Mums are a huge deal to the cheerleader types, they keep them for years afterwards. I remember going to one girls parents house for dinner and her Mom had about 6 of them up in her crafts room. They were flabbergasted that I had no idea what a mum was. I was about 26 at the time so her mom had kept some of them for almost 10 years, it was kind of creepy.
