Laura: Where'd you get the Mardi Gras beads?
Adam: They were handing them out at the coffee shop.
Laura: You didn't...
Adam: It's the tradition!! And they also gave me the name of a good self-tanner.
the thought of adam flaunting for a couple pair of 98 cent beads appalls me, it is another of those you can’t unsee.
(and i’m sure a lot of other people)
What is this “tradition” and why is Laura upset in the last panel?
The tradition is “flashing” a float in order to get large or unusual pairs of beads. Technically illegal, of course, but little effort is made to control it.
Aren’t your TEETH tan enough for the rest of you?
Susan, I’m not completely clear on it, but whoever gets the most beads wins (something) and in order to get the beads they have to show their boobs, and men throw beads at them from the balconies. Something like that, as explained to me by a guy in our office who used to go to Mardi Gras every year. He’d give us beads when he got back, but all I showed him was his pay check.
I agree with Lyle. Why do you keep bringing up his teeth color?
Maybe you’re new to the strip but there’s been more than one instance of him brushing his teeth and instructed Clayton how to do it within the last year.
I’ve already explained it. It’s simple, and Lyle is just another insulting person who thinks he owns the comments. Maybe you keep missing that too.
Sorry, skywalker you are the problem. You come on here and insult this comic and you blame us. He does not have brown teeth.Stop it. If you dint like it read something else. I was gonna say something but Lyle beat me to it. Go away.

I went to elementary school with Marty Gross. He was an odd fellow.

I remember reading a Nancy Drew mystery set during Mardi Gras - no flashing for beads.
Funny tag line and last panel.

Nancy was there when it was the real Mardi Gras…not the drunken mess it is now.
Addam fits right in now.

That takes care of any desire I might have had for breakfast.
I on the other hand have no need to flash for beads.

Maybe if he’d washed his nose, he would have gotten
more beads!
