Feeling a little dense - I'm not getting the joke. Sink de Mayo? Tilt de Mayo? What am I missing...

Ok. Now can someone explain "Edgar Allen Poe Poe" posted by @RadishRose ?

Po Po is slang for the police. Usually more than one. Po would be one, Po Po, more than one.

LOL
When I see "De Mayo" my brain reverts to my NY roots: "hold dee mayo(nnaise)."
Not my 50+ years in CA where it's Spanish, and refers to the month and is pronounced "duh my-oh."
Probably was also thrown off by the capitalized D.
Thanks for the explanation.

Exactly! As Karen Karbo says in her book Yeah, No. Not Happening: How I Found Happiness Swearing Off Self-Improvement and Saying F*ck It All—and How You Can Too, "…[T]he [winter] holidays…[are], as my friend Connie says, 'an annual festival put on by women for the enjoyment of men and children.'”
