When did this happen? There’s a few Asian monks in the Quarter trying to hand bracelets to tourists and then aggressively asking for money. Gotta dodge them, gutter punks and the “I know where you got your shoes from” folks.


I usually just keep my AirPods in at all times when walking down there. They mostly keep people from talking to me. If they try I just point at the AirPods and keep on walking. Works well

But can they spin “I bet I know where you got them shoes” into a zen mantra?

Also, this thread title sounds like a shitty live album of Red Hot Chili Peppers in NOLA circa late 80’s.

I know I’ve been out of the city too long when these guys and other scammers try to target me.
