CynthiaWVirginia -> Um, why do we need necklaces for a Mardi Gras play party? (2/10/2012 11:48:18 PM)

It's in West Virginia and we're supposed to bring necklaces. While shopping around I saw masks and coins and stuff. I've never been to New Orleans and know nothing about this, and somehow I think reading what vanillas do might not be very helpful.

Has any of your munch groups thrown a Mardi Gras party? What happened? Do I need to get those coins? Why do some necklaces have crowns on them? Was it wrong if I found some Mardi Gras colors on fat chain necklaces and bought them? Am I only supposed to buy certain colors? Cooking. WTF to bring??? Recipes anyone? Are we supposed to dress up? Someone from NOLA once told me about latex paint worn as clothes...no farking way, okay? Not even for a million bucks.

I could go ask the organizer or hostess but I thought asking here would be more fun. Links to anything in CM archives would be welcomed but hearing from people who are here NOW would also be nice. [;)]

Don't send me to Google. I flunked Google...

Thanks in advance.

(I might be late coming to this thread, possibly not until noon Sunday, cuz of the munch's pre-Valentine's Day play party. Anybody know WTF might happen there? Y'all don't do no weird chit I should know about...right?)

At Mardi Gras they throw beaded necklaces to get women to show their titties. The beads are usually green, purple and gold.

the knecklaces for your purposes are part of a tradition in the french quarter on boubon street that started a couple of decades ago, you shake your beads at a would be recipient, they show you thier tits, you give them the beads.

the knecklaces for the purposes of mardi gras come in all shapes and colors. the variety is to signify the different people you've interacted with and places you've been at mardi gras. This is the real tradition of mardi gras. Most college students and vacationers go to the french quarter thinking bourbon street is "where it's at" but this is simply not true. The parades and celebrations of mardi gras dont even go through the french quarter, it's everywhere else. What you seen on T.V. and internet is not where the really cool shit is.

Although if you are drunk and horny the french quarter is a great place to go, it's where all the strip clubs and dive bars are.

If it's a real mardi gras theme, don't forget the crime -- the muggings, assaults, robberies, etc. During mardi gras, there have been tales of people being stabbed to death in the crowd and then being "carried" another half block before anyone realized the person was dead.

A guy on a local radio show here said he was assaulted, knocked unconscious, and then casually stepped over by bystanders who either didn't know he'd just ben knocked out or didn't care.

What the hell is a "knecklace?"




Endivius -> RE: Um, why do we need necklaces for a Mardi Gras play party? (2/11/2012 12:43:19 AM)

it means poor spelling and a total lack of care.

Thanks, littlewonder.

This spawns a new batch of questions, lol. I'm not bi...is giving a necklace being flirty?

Guys don't count in the titty department or other dangly bits?

Can a woman keep all the necklaces of folks wanting to see her titties...but keep her shirt on? [:D]

So I'm to go around putting a necklace (or more?) around the necks of any naked person I see, or only the naked ladies? Hand them over? Drop them in some hat or basket at their feet?

Men buy them, women earn them. They show the tits, get the beads, then move on. It's not a promise ring. It's a plastic necklace.




littlewonder -> RE: Um, why do we need necklaces for a Mardi Gras play party? (2/11/2012 12:49:26 AM)

Usually men or well...I guess women lol...will dangle the beads at the women and wait for the women to flash them. If the woman flashes then they throw the beads to the woman.


I've never heard of it being done for men but hey when everyone's drunk I'm sure it happens.

Seeing as you're going to a play party I'm guessing they're just expecting everyone to be naked anyway and anyone can give anyone beads for whatever reason you want. I dunno. Those are questions for the play party sponsor I'm guessing.

It's a product of...my slave's f*d up keyboard loaded with crumbs I cannot shake out...and...from bleary eyes suffering from sleep dep and a four hour drive through falling snow.

It's almost 4 a.m. guys, gimme a break.

Is it REALLY down to criticising spelling ? Let he who is without sin etc........
My old man always said that there is only one way to go through life without making a mistake and that's to do nothing. But that in itself is a mistake.
So she put a 'k' where one wasn't needed...............I reccomend she learns what a 'PITA' is and ignores it

Not sure why you're replying to that message. You spelled it correctly.

Thanks again.

Everyone was told to bring beads, not just the males. I don't know what an old friend of mine flashed in NOLA, cuz he said he got lots of beads... I cannot imagine a BDSM play party being the same as in the streets of New Orleans. (I never went there, though mom and my sister did. Said the streets reeked of piss and alcohol, lol. Neither made it to NOLA for Mardi Gras.) I doubt we will be painted in latex, drunk, and pissing all over her living room. [:D]

The last play party I went to was my first one. There was no theme and I only saw one person naked...but there were some lovely corsets and someone wore a black lace body stocking under hers. I left after maybe two hours because my pain levels were too high and I wanted some alone time with my boyfriend/sub, maybe everyone got nekkie after I left. [;)]

I stayed away from munches and play parties because of distance (believe it or not, when you live deep in the sticks there are sometimes no munch groups within a three hour drive) and because I was doing just fine on my own. I'm a curious sort though, and now that we have three groups to go to...YAY! I have a lot of catching up to do.

It's interesting meeting other people in groups, but I dislike not knowing what to expect...so this is why I am asking. Some of you have been going to munch groups since before I had my epiphany, and I hoped to hear about past Mardi Gras themed BDSM play parties.

So teachers should pack it in and stop trying to teach people? I mean hell, what's the point of teaching when people clearly don't care anyway? The thing that blows my mind is when people defend bad/lazy spelling. And where the hell does "sin" come in?

Sounds like new orleans alright. Even when it's not mardi gras season, that city has a distinct, rather horrid smell.

Oh dear.............did somebody ruffle your little feathers diddums ? Not everybody had the superior education that you obviously had maricon...............cut them some slack and just look at the meaning behind the spelling and instead of looking for the faults, help with them

Thank you. :)

It sounds so fun! I've always wanted to go see the sights in NOLA during Mardi Gras and that talk of piss was true but...also sour grapes. The only thing I know about it is what an old friend told me years ago...and I'm sure my memory has failed me on a lot of things. He was also the type who hung around Burbon St., lol, and only showed me pix from there and nowhere else.

This late at night...I almost typed Mardi Gras as Mardis Gras. Repeatedly. Aargh.

I am still recovering from my glee of having to look through scores of Valentine's Day cards at our local Dollar Tree earlier. Another requirement of a play party. Anyway, deciding between cutesie Dixie Cup type jokes, Valentines that folded up into paper airplanes, Harry Potter ones, etc., I finally decided on Pirates of the Carribean(sp?) for my boy and...mwahahaha...I cannot believe I did this but I completely dropped my dignity at the door and bought some scratch and sniff ones for myself. Banana splits and stuff like that. [:D] I couldn't find any of those fold over ones with the lollipop inside, as was requested. Gah.

How do you help with faults by ignoring them, "maricon?"

I was probably being unfair about quoting their description...New Orleans is on or near a swamp, right? The gators might be stinky. [;)]

As for the part about muggings and horrible things...I am sad to hear of these as it reminds me of how dangerous it was when I lived in Los Angeles and later on in the San Fernando Valley. We try to be as safe as we can be...and if ever I'm in NOLA for Mardi Gras, I will keep this in mind and try to find better areas of town.
