There are few silver linings to COVID-19, but it's good to point them out when we can find them in the face of overwhelming despair. That leads us to this delightful, yet bizarre video:

As you can see, it's two dudes (self-described "pranksters' Caleb Simpson and Irving Salazar) driving around the streets of New York City in go-carts while dressed up as Mario and Luigi.

That’s cute. It’s like something you would see during a big Thanksgiving Parade. Mario and friend driving about on those scooters. One tip: If Mario is going to scoot around at night, he needs to put some headlights on.
Otherwise, have fun. Keep a chain lock or something so no one steals it while you run into a store.

The stores on Fifth Ave are no longer boarded up. That video was taken right after the rioting and looting took place.
