I’m confused.. we're ashamed of Latoya actually doing something?


No, we are ashamed that resources need to be deployed from other, more effective uses...

Ah hell what am I saying? It's not like these workers would be doing anything better with their time...

They don't "need" to be. Moist vaginas such as yourself can't seem to stomach the idea that some people put in the effort to set up a spot.

lol it’s fricking Mardi Gras.

Go to Disney if you want a polite happy safe space.


Befoe Katrina, this wasn't an issue.

Heck 10 years ago, it wasn't nearly as bad as it is now.

We CAN have Mardi Gras without people acting stupid. Raise your standards, Chad.

Why is this allowed at all?


It used to not be allowed, but City got lazy and stopped enforcing rules, and people got crazier.

There is a very easy solution to all this....go back to running the streetcar up to 2 hours before the parade, and starting back 2 hours after (and for Endymion, only stopping the Canal streetcar the morning before) like it used to be. That would make poeple move.

what?!?! Setting up on the neutral ground on orleans?

You’re a fricking idiot

A NOPD officer helped my mom let out the air in someone’s tires that parked in our coveted and rare driveway this was like 1997

The officer also got the vehicle towed pretty quickly

Our dogs would go after the chicken bones people would just throw. I got off the bus from school the week before on orleans and Carrollton and people would have pissing contests

It’s been bad for about 40 years

There's an even easier solution. Mind your own business.

Your easy solution would put pedestrians in danger of being run over because you can't handle people setting up spots That's insanity

You’re the one that started the thread, Karen from Kenner

Just stay at the corner of David Dr and Vets and enjoy your daiquiris.

Set up a spot before a parade comes... cool

Set up half a block and rope it off with ropes, tied laddders, fencing, blankets, ice chests, and leave it otu there for a week... not cool

I don't know why this is so hard for your simple mind to understand, except for the fact that you probably are indeed soeone who is obnoxious and doing this all yourself.

Point me in the direction of me defending this a-hole behavior once, and you may have a point.

Endymion has always been like that on Orleans Ave.

Now, I'm talking about Carrollton, Canal... oh and ALL of the uptown parades.

The ladder people that setup right on or near the street are the worst.

I hate mardi gras, especially in NOLA. Seems to bring out all the trash. We go skiing.

NOPD does a very good job of keeping ladders 6' back, at least where I go.

So if you are not defending this behavior, why are you in this thread?

Have I triggered you that much?

By the way, your rent check is due Thursday, don't be late, again...

He's just mad he can't stroll up to a prime spot and be right up front as the parade gets there

I grew up on the Endymion parade route (80s/90s) and it was difficult to walk our dogs with people setting up crap the week before
Let the dog take a shite right at the base of their ladders

Bro, you have a serious inferiority complex.

I think maybe you should go out of town for Mardi Gras this year.
