Talk:996: Making Things Difficult
Commenter VaguelyCreepy had a few notes on Mardi Gras beads that are probably good to keep close to this page:
- A few notes on the Mardi Gras beads:
- They come in all colors, so pink isn’t particularly unusualy, though it could still fit if the doctor specifically chose that color for that reason.
- New Orleans natives really frown on that kind of behavior, and you usually only see it from tourists who think Mardi Gras is some kind of excuse to do whatever you like. The entire thing is a celebration, but if you act like an ass, people are going to hate you for it, and you may very well get arrested. Also, the beads, as well as a variety of other memorabilia, are thrown to everyone, including the women who keep their tops on.

I'm removing the line, "In this case, the beads are pink, likely a reference to the Pink ribbon campaign related to Breast cancer awareness." The beads aren't pink, they're clearly purple. 67.253.239.15 19:21, 20 July 2013 (UTC)
- I have an app which identifies them as pink (I'm colorblind, so I can't personally pass judgement). The pink beads would definitely make sense. 108.162.219.202 06:33, 30 December 2013 (UTC)
