If you call a New Orleans mana Jelly-bean he will probably grin and ask you who is taking your girl to the Mardi Gras ball.

Answer:

Memphis will pull out a rope from his hip pocket and hang you to the telegraph pole and New Orleans will grin and ask you who is taking your girl to Ma-rdi G-ras Ball.

Explanation:

Jelly Beans is a sla-ng that has been introduced in the coming-of-age movie "ATL" in 2006.

Vincent Joseph Monteleone defined the term 'Jelly Bean' as someone who is a weakling and a coward, in his book titled "Criminal Sla-ng: The Vernacular of the Underground Li-ngo."

According to F. Scott Fitzgerald, who in his short story titled "The Jelly Bean" wrote about jelly bean, described the difference between the responses of Memphis and a New Orleans on being called a jelly-bean.

He wrote that Memphis will pull a rope out of his hip pocket and hang you to the telegraph on being called a jelly bean whereas, a New Orleans will grin and ask you who is taking your girl to Ma-rdi G-ras Ball.
