Ice Cream Truck

DH and I had a random conversation about this yesterday. Hearing the ICT coming down the street in the summer time as kids was so exciting! I wouldn't even dream of hitting up one of the creepy ones that come down the street now (I see you, Fat Bald Guy Named Larry About To Head Back To Your Mom's Basement And Spend All Night on Tinder In A Dirty Wife Beater With Bag Of Cheetos And A 6-Pack Of Pearl Beer ðŸ˜³), but it used to be a fun thing!

Anyway, what was your go-to from the ice cream man? I always, and I mean ALWAYS got a big red/white/blue bomb pop! All of my neighborhood friends got some big trumped up concoction, but me...bomb pop! My sister always got an orange popsicle and my dad was always like, WTH? ðŸ˜‚

DH surprised me today with a box of bomb pops from HEB. Sweet of him, but not the same at all! ðŸ¤”

The ice cream man has come by about 4 times since 2000....I'm in Pinehurst....not sure what the problem is. So sad for my kiddo. One of the times she was about 5, she was running like Usain Bolt to catch him...it was hysterical! I had no idea she could move that fast! Lol. When I was a kid, I liked orange push ups or fudgesicles. I like ice cream sandwiches now.

Let me first say that from my name here you can tell my background. Next let me say that my favorite binge series during COVID was Ozarks. You need this info for the next exchange.

Just 2 Sundays ago there was an ice cream truck coming through A Shores. Let me just say at the rate of speed it was traveling through the streets there was no intent to sell ice cream. My 28 year old, fresh from the Marines nephew says to me -- "That is a front." My response was -- "They are laundering money!"

I hope that gave you a good laugh.

But seriously -- I wouldn't want my grandchildren going out there to buy ice cream. I wouldn't trust it. Just saying ... times are different now and it is sad when you cannot trust an ice cream truck.

@DAccountant : Are you saying you don't trust the ice cream man because he was driving fast and your nephew said it was a front and you think he's money laundering?

I don't understand ðŸ¤·ðŸ¼â€â™‚ï¸

@Daaaaaave : I don't know how you got "son" out of my post. Just saying ... I didn't mention anything about a son. Also if you never watched the Ozark series on Netflix ... you probably can't understand my post.

@brightlights : Favorite ... Banana Popsicles!! For some reason, my mom never bought these from the store. Don't know if they weren't available or what. Even now, I LOVE Banana Popsicles (even though they really don't even taste like banana). My smoothie of choice is also Banana. (I just finished one 10 minutes ago.)

If someone is driving down the street at 35 - 40 MPH do you really think they intend to stop? Just saying ...

@brightlights : Oh and I still panic when I hear the ICT. A million thoughts running through my head .... :"where's my money and will I get out there in time?" ... "Will I look like an idiot, being the only adult running after the ICT.?" ... And now especially, "Will I make it out there, limping along with my prosthetic leg, without falling flat on my face first?" All these thoughts within the first 3 seconds of hearing that chime.
