Ah ha! it is flippers!
I myself am from OH and when we wish to say fuckers or fuckin' and we don't want to be quite so rude, often we'll spit out "flippin" (maybe cause we're somwhere like a funeral) or if you happen to be opening a childs new toy, you may say aloud "Why are there so many flippin' staples in this box!"

Hence Maynard thingking to himself (about his family and loved ones)
"ignorant flippers in the congregation,
gather around spewing sympothy, spare me."

Note: the spewed sympathy is not nessasarily(SP) false, he just wishes to be spared the gestures that consolling people often wish to extend.
