Note
A regular plural that gathers up very different things: long narrow flags and paper strips hung for a celebration, newspaper headlines running across the top of a page, tape drives that back up data, and services that stream content to an audience. The ending gives no clue which is meant, so the surrounding words do the work. Paper streamers hang from a ceiling, while streamers in a data or media setting move content.
