So, who wants shit-sprinkles on that small plastic cup of room temperature spoiled milk.

Why no massive protests FOR the plan? People don't protest for frozen vanilla yogurt. and months later, at the apparent 11th hour, there is STILL no "plan"

We were led to believe hopeful that there would be a sundae.

With three flavors of ice cream..real ice cream..and there would be chocolate sauce, whipped cream, strawberries, and maybe even a sliced banana at the bottom.

We've been promised at least many of us thought we would eventually be promised (and delivered)this sundae for a long time..you might say we have craved it......and it has never come to pass. Not everyone will want the sundae, but millions do. Some have never had a sundae.

We've seen other people eating sundaes, and we want one so badly we can almost taste it. We voted for it last year, and thought we would finally get our sundae.

No one could agree on the three flavors, so a compromise was reached..vanilla ice cream. That promise went away and frozen yogurt was suggested as a compromise.

Frozen yogurt may taste "like" ice cream, but it's not.

There is some doubt about whether there will be any "extras"..certainly the chocolate sauce is out, as is the banana (too expensive). Whipped cream is out of the question. .."There's a war on, dontchaknow"
There will be no cherry on top, so don't even ask.
The new soda jerks did offer some brown sprinkles.. (they ain't chocolate)..and of course we do get to keep the nuts.. LOTS of NUTS.


Just when we had almost come to accept the "less than" sundae, protesters are suddenly saying "Not even frozen yogurt for YOU...we won't hear of it..and if you even try to tell people they have one coming, we'll shout you down."


Why is "our side" not eager to counter-protest with the same "vigor"?

We are not all THAT excited about a shit-sprinkled bowl of vanilla frozen yogurt, especially when even that will probably end up being a small plastic cup of room temperature spoiled milk.



disclaimer for the <0 people without a sense of humor.. I KNOW it's NOT ice cream we're worrying about..and I know that some of you might be lactose or otherwise intolerant, some are nut-sensitive, and that some of you will say ice cream is high in fat & sugar and not a "bit good for you"..buy hey.. work with me here
