Journalist Joel Stein suggests an alternative: Slut Day.
  • Carnival

    Carnival is just a pre-Lent celebration same as Mardi Gras. The ‘carni’ in Carnival comes from all the meat you get to gorge yourself on before Lent starts.

    Personally I’d rather party on Mari Gras – I don’t think it’s cool to be all slutted out and wasted on a night when I know the streets are going to be full of kids. If it dosen’t bother the kids it for sure kills my mood.
