Can we take a vote, and make him change his name to something more appropriate?

Me. Havent been to a parade in years. Nothing but trouble out there.


Such bullshite. No problem with not going to parades (especially if there are no kids in the family), but 98% of the people out there are nice and having a great time.

He already saw the doctor and the doctor said he treats depression, but he can't do anything about the small penis.

What's fun about collecting beads and drinking in excess? I can drink in excess anywhere. I don't need to drive to New Orleans for that. I don't be need beads.

Also, somebody said they don't like it either but they aren't going to be a dick about it. please show me where I was a dick about it. If anyone thinks I'm a dick for saying I don't like Mardi Gras, you're simply a whiny bitch.

I probably drank too much today and didn’t catch one bead

It’s actually not about the beads at all.

It’s a celebration with friends and family. It’s a festival. It’s a social gathering. It’s music, costumes, role playing, festival,etc....day drinking for 2 weeks straight....how can you not have a good time??

What do folks do with the beads in two weeks?

Are there ever collectibles?

Re. your over consumption... I'm not babysitting you anymore. Today was a blast, but you start too much trash talk. There is a difference between the fun here and real world... thunder gums.

Some people collect them, some people re throw them in other parades, some people recycle them.

honestly i'm curious how much of the allure of Nola gets shredded if you remove alcohol

people always bring up esoteric terms (like "soul" or "culture") to describe the positives of Nola, but those typically can get broken down into "drinking a bunch and creating reasons to justify drinking a bunch".

my point in real time

*with alcohol

quote:

"etc" = alcohol

drinking for 2 weeks straight.

what it really is

what if you don't drink and don't like being in one of the most violent areas in the entire US?

the question wasn't "will anyone miss SFP if he doesn't show up?" it was "how can you not have a good time?"

My wife and kids don’t drink and they love Mardi Gras more than I do.

Actually they are the only reasons I live in this city.
