People have said these things about that :

**mixes up some hurricanes**
**begins work on Thundersluts Gone Wild**

Good work making those beads look like a monkey face. eep eep.

True Mardi Gras story; I once got kicked out of a bar called "The Game Cock" in New Orleans (it was raining, ye speculators!) for pretending to lick my rather homophobic friend's ear and having him, in return, upend my barstool with a roar (with me on it) and sending me careening across the floor.

I did, however, retain the wherewithal to tack a fraternity brother of mine's business card on the mysterious little bulletin board near the door before being ejected into the street.

Show us your tits, indeed. Any other True Tales of Mardi Gras Hijinx?

I once hit on a New Orleans prostitute, without realizing she was one. Her pimp let me know pretty quick.

Another time in New Orleans, I threw up. How's THAT for hijinx?

Waaaait a minute. You mean tits for beads is only a Mardi Gras day thing? Shit.

You want Mardi Gras stories? Oh, I got Mardi Gras stories, baby.

Posted by: ColdChef on March 4, 2003 11:08 AM

For instance, just yesterday...

Posted by: ColdChef on March 4, 2003 11:15 AM

That's right. I chose booze over boobs. I was just happy to find out later that the anthropomorphic bourbon bottle actually existed and wasn't just a product of my pickled brain.

Posted by: ColdChef on March 4, 2003 11:16 AM

That bottle looks kinda flummoxed, Chef.
Where's your other hand?

Posted by: dong resin on March 4, 2003 11:42 AM

I'm pretty sure Chef just guaranteed himself a part in any future Cannonball Run movies.

Posted by: kafkaesque on March 4, 2003 11:44 AM

And that is one kickin' lid, CC.

Posted by: Fes on March 4, 2003 12:09 PM

SoCo is not bourbon, CC. Gawd, and you call yourself a drinker...

Posted by: jonmc on March 4, 2003 12:13 PM

Sorry. I usually stay away from the dark stuff. I prefer lighter fare.

Like Vodker:

No Mardi Gras stories myself, but here's one for you:

My boyfriend's band played out this weekend and their sax player, who's all of 24 or something, thought he'd get into the Mardi Gras spirit and bring some beads along. So he's walking through the crowd before the show, going up to women and saying "Here, have some beads." The bass player stops him and says, "You're not supposed to just give the beads away." Sax player thinks about it for a minute, walks up to the next woman and says, "Here, have some beads. Now give me $5."

Kids. They're so cute when they're innocent like that.

Hello all,
To be honest I'm primed and ready to go for more Mardi Gras. I just came back from lunch at the closes place you could find in Dallas that reeks of real Creole, Nate's restaurant. The thing that sucks my bosses stayed...it started at 10:30pm and the first thing the waiter said was, what two beers would you like, so I'm on my way already to feeling it...

Posted by: Thomcatspike on March 4, 2003 01:56 PM

CC, I couldn't help but notice you got an awful lot of beads there, pal.

Making no value judgements, but -- nice work, pal.

Posted by: Chico on March 4, 2003 01:57 PM

I can't see pretty chef pictures! SO sad.

Posted by: readymade on March 4, 2003 02:47 PM

Um... I still don't see any tits...

Posted by: jpoulos on March 4, 2003 03:37 PM

( . )( . )

Posted by: readymade on March 4, 2003 04:09 PM

Good god, man! Look at what you made me do! I've sworn that I would never make emoticons--especially the dread "tits" emoticon--and I've gone and done it.

*hangs head in shame*

Posted by: readymade on March 4, 2003 04:11 PM

[thom looks at bead collection; finds, aimes, throws, loops around readymade's hanging head of shame, pours shot into shot cup dangling from the end of her beads]

Posted by: Thomcatspike on March 4, 2003 04:31 PM

Boobies Boobies Boobies. Had to say it.

Equal opportunity oogles, my dear jpolous. When are we going to see some trou dropping for beads?

Posted by: romakimmy on March 4, 2003 04:36 PM

I'll be attending this pub crawl tonight. So tomorrow morning when I'm all hungover and cranky, I'll be expecting some dancing and love to cheer me up. Have a good one all!

Posted by: ufez on March 4, 2003 05:12 PM

I have to say that although I've seen a ~goodly sum of penises in my life~, I was completely unprepared for the sheer number that were waved at me or in my immediate presence at Mardi Gras. And we're not talking goodlooking phalli either. These were the male equivalent of the gerontic titties at Sturgis.

I was shocked and a little bit traumatized, truth be told.

Posted by: cowboy_sally on March 4, 2003 05:13 PM

I'm saving myself for marriage.

Posted by: jpoulos on March 4, 2003 05:44 PM

Put away those emoticons, folks. Think of the adults.

Posted by: liam on March 4, 2003 05:44 PM

Adults? Where? Shit!

*clumsily stuffs emoticons back in shirt*

Posted by: Chico on March 4, 2003 06:08 PM

Here ya go guys...mardi gras boobs. Not good boobs mind you...and not *my* boobs...but mardi gras boobs, none the less. ;)

Posted by: dejah420 on March 4, 2003 06:16 PM

yay boobs!

Posted by: jpoulos on March 4, 2003 07:06 PM

It's mardi gras. I'm sitting in my chair. I have a can of beer nuts and a beer. I've seen no tits today. As we drove home tonight the streets were deserted.

I hate suburbia. I hate that I'm from there. Why people like it, I don't know. The city is full of people who are from the city and either lov it, love/hate it, or hate it and want to move here. Or their people from small towns who want to come to the big cities. Or wild ass rich kids from wherever living it up. But I ain't a member of any of those fuckin' clubs, so there ya go. Hell, maybe I should just get with the fuckin' program, buy an SUV, go to college, work in some office park, get a mortgage on a fucking McMansion, right? I must be nuts for not wanting all that right?

Don't mind me, I'm just surrounded by so many "nice" mashed potato people that I'd like to starngle half the time.

Aargh. Where's my fuckin' meds.

Posted by: jonmc on March 4, 2003 09:09 PM

Dude : travel! It's the cure to all existential malaises, or if not the cure, at least a mighty enjoyable placebo. There are some wacky-ass foods (and beers) out there, too, so you don't have to give up your hobbies!

Posted by: stavrosthewonderchicken on March 4, 2003 09:20 PM

Yes! (error cleanup)

*looks up, confused, with moutfull of colorful pills*

Posted by: adampsyche on March 4, 2003 09:33 PM

wow. you guys said a moutful.

Posted by: yhbc on March 4, 2003 09:34 PM

0h, and I can't see the MardiColdPartyChefBoobiesGras pictures, either.

Dammit.

Posted by: yhbc on March 4, 2003 09:36 PM

hey, it's hard to spel wen u hav swallawed a heep uf zoloft.

Spelling is hard.

Posted by: Mardi Gras Barbie on March 4, 2003 09:50 PM

Debauchery. Hey, there are worse hobbies.

Posted by: tizzie on March 4, 2003 10:10 PM

Apparently, I've reached my daily limit on free photo views. You might check this thread tomorrow.

Oh, and be sure to check out the photo of the penis between my wife's boobs. (sorry...apparently this photo won't load until tomorrow either)

Posted by: ColdChef on March 4, 2003 10:28 PM

fuck me, it's 1 in the morning, i'm back from the pub crawl (and then some). Alarm will suck. Please pray that I get to work before 9:30. Thank you all. Keep me in your thoughts, and please dance for me in the morn....

Posted by: ufez on March 5, 2003 02:11 AM

Howdy all...a fine Ides of March to ya...

Thanks, stav for the article, more excuses for me to be drbunk. Honestly I can relate to the article, yet, nor have I enjoyed the results of it.

PS, I have no idea what I just linked, yet it's sure to make a monkey laugh/dance instead stabbing oneself 12 times listening to Julius Caecar, in latin.

Posted by: Thomcatspike on March 5, 2003 11:11 AM

I'm pretty sure the Ides of March aren't until March 15.

Posted by: Mars Crash on March 5, 2003 11:17 AM

whoops, why did I think the 5th...now to go brush up on my latin since 8th grade, damn pod buddies.

Posted by: Thomcatspike on March 5, 2003 12:35 PM

Can you folks see the pics now?

Posted by: ColdChef on March 5, 2003 06:08 PM

Yes, and you look almost exactly like one of my best friends in Sydney, Australia. Got a lost branch of the family down there, by any chance?

Posted by: stavrosthewonderchicken on March 5, 2003 06:35 PM

There are Chefbabies scatterred throughout the Southern Hemisphere. Like seeds on the wind. Or something.

Posted by: jpoulos on March 5, 2003 06:50 PM

Can you folks see the pics now?

Yes I saw them even after it was posted you couldn't, ???, maybe I just was lucky.

Let me tell you about it CC, they looked marvelous...the boobs that is.

Go Stars...see ya' all.

Posted by: Thomcatspike on March 5, 2003 07:05 PM

I'm still getting little red x's where pictures should be. Perhaps our monkey bandwidth is just too much. ;)

Posted by: dejah420 on March 5, 2003 07:25 PM

You forgot to hit the "resize" button, migs.

Posted by: anathema on March 5, 2003 08:32 PM

Also, the "woman" knobs and switches shouldn't be labeled.

Posted by: ColdChef on March 5, 2003 11:33 PM

heh.

Posted by: anathema on March 6, 2003 12:31 AM

The "resize" button was on the woman's side, anathema, and I was frightened.

Posted by: Miguel on March 6, 2003 01:31 AM

How about another tired gender joke, like how women move into your apartment and immediately clutter it with all sorts of shit?

Posted by: witchstone on March 6, 2003 08:54 AM

Okay, okay. I admit it. That's MY collection of crystal unicorns. But don't they catch the light in a magical way?

Posted by: ColdChef on March 6, 2003 09:24 AM

How about another tired gender joke, like how women move into your apartment and immediately clutter it with all sorts of shit?

Heh! That is soooo true!

Posted by: pardon me on March 6, 2003 09:29 AM

There's this hilarious one act play called For Whom the Southern Bell Tolls (by Christopher Durang) which is a parody of The Glass Menagerie. The main character, Lawrence, collects glass swizzle sticks. "And this one I called blue, because it's blue."

Posted by: witchstone on March 6, 2003 09:31 AM

Men like beer and football.

And women, they love to shop.

Posted by: jpoulos on March 6, 2003 09:53 AM

Yeah, that's so true! I love shopping! I could shop all day!

And men don't ask for directions! Ha, ha, ha!

Posted by: witchstone on March 6, 2003 10:05 AM

Women can't do math. And men scratch themselves and fart all day.

Posted by: ColdChef on March 6, 2003 10:14 AM

Women are evil, vindictive hags who only marry for money and will cut off your penis when you fall asleep.

Men like beer and football.

Posted by: jpoulos on March 6, 2003 10:50 AM

Women don't fart.

Posted by: ColdChef on March 6, 2003 10:52 AM

You know what I don't get? The men-will-fuck-their-buddies-over-for-a-Bud-Light thing. Remember the commercials where the guy hires a bouncer to protect his six-pack from his roommate? or digs a spike-laden trench around the fridge? or pisses in the last bottle, so he doesn't have to share?

what's up with that? do they not realize that they sell 'em on the corner for $3.99? no need to threaten your friends for them.

Posted by: jpoulos on March 6, 2003 10:54 AM

Childbirth hurts less than a kick in the nuts.

Posted by: ColdChef on March 6, 2003 10:55 AM

What's a woman?

Posted by: jonmc on March 6, 2003 11:00 AM

Yeah, and women don't make you strip naked and sleep in the crawlspace every night for a year until its clear that you have been bent to their dark and inimitable will.

Posted by: kaf on March 6, 2003 11:50 AM

And then, the bear suit.

Posted by: kaf on March 6, 2003 11:57 AM

I can't even talk about the bear su--

I can't even say it.

Posted by: witchstone on March 6, 2003 12:20 PM

I can't do math, but that's because it bored me to tears when I was a kid, and never tried. I don't primp, don't shop professionally, I'm a pretty decent slobs, and while I do have a fondness for tchotchkes and knick-knacks I think we can all agree that monkey paraphernalia, of which I have a great deal, is above reproach. I own nothing pink, I have no doilies, and I find shows like "The Bachelor" and "Joe Millionaire" ten tons of painful for reinforcing the notion that women are a bunch of air-headed fools who just want to find Mr. Right and have no personal interests beyond finding a MAN.

Even though that's how I met my husband. But we don't talk about that.
