So I said, ‘You mean somebody actually called the police on the ice cream man? That’s un-American.’”

Funny, someone narcing on the ice cream man is actually the most American thing I’ve heard of in a long time. :allears:

My dad always told me they play music to let kids know when the ice cream is sold out.

It doesn't matter. If the jingle of an ice cream truck and the happy shouts of children running up to grab a treat bothers you enough for you to call the cops, your soul has expired and it's time for you to depart your wretched flesh prison.

You missed out. The best ice cream comes from trucks, the best candy comes from vans, and the best drinks are pre-opened and given by smiling strangers. I had more wisdom to give, but I can't remember it for some reason and I have a dull ache where my kidney used to be.

And if you took your milkshakes outside, boys would bring milkshakes to the yard, instead of the other way round.

I mean, kind of? Durian is delicious. But eat it with a clothespin on your nose, and for God's sake eat it in private.

Reading the article, not surprised at all this was in Elgin. Never underestimate how pissy and petty people can be in the suburbs. I once had the cops called on me when I dressed up as Alice Cooper for Halloween and was sitting out on my front stoop handing out candy claiming I was doing some devil stuff out front. I had an idea who it was and if I wasn't in my knockoff straightjacket, I would've flipped her the Dio horns.

There are YouTube videos of people retching once the tin is opened so I'd guess Surströmming.
I never smelled either though.
