You are BASIC CABLE. You're on in every airport. You want me to pay to view a basic news feed for a current event?
Okay even though this is a nerf I kind of dig this as flavor. You don't wanna put the guy who has to kill constantly in a steel box with a bunch of dudes.
@docrods.bsky.social - In the same fine tradition, we've got Vermin Supreme on this side of the pond.
You've somehow recreated Bill Fisher from Church of the Cosmic Skull from first principles.
If you win hard enough, Peter Dinklage plays you in an Adam Sandler movie.
There's so many different ways you could do these up if you got bored after the first one. But I know my favorite.
like compare it to the York State Fair what about this actually looks fun
Gonna wrap this up with the all-rounder. You have eaten so many of these. Anyone you did not grow up with will not agree with you on what they're called. They're still what you want after you've run through the sprinkler or gone down your neighbor's Slip 'n Slide.
Also very local, the Baltimore Snowball. STILL NOT A SNOW CONE. It's what snow cones wish they were. That's marshmallow fluff there, and they only get more fun from there on out.
Some local favorites deserve to be here. This is Philly Water Ice. You may scratch your head because all ice is water isn't it? But no, this is a specific thing. It is emphatically not a snow cone. Confusing, but recommended.
A rocket pop, also known as a bomb pop. You see them painted on the sides of ice cream trucks. I'm not sure I've ever seen someone buy one? Kind of a party trick, since the sections almost never taste different.
I want to stress here, a Push-Up is cowardice. Tasty cowardice, but cowardice nonetheless. Does nothing that other popsicles didn't already do better. Will I eat them? Sure. I'll just feel weird about it.
I was gonna pour one out for the Choco Taco, gone too soon. But hey, they make them again! I guess we can have nice things. And sure, they're Drumsticks assembled differently. I don't care. THEY'RE CHOCO TACOS. THEY'RE UNSTOPPABLE.
There are a million different characters that have been done this way. They always look better on the package. They're always kind of cursed when you open them. The eyes may not line up, but they see into your soul.
The ice cream sandwich in its most basic form. You've had one. You probably have never had one that's worth writing home about. Would you have another? In a heartbeat.
The Strawberry Shortcake Bar. We've left the realm of chocolate! Does not taste of real strawberries. DOES taste of childhood. Save the stick for arts and crafts.
The Chipwich. Similar benefits to the drumstick, in that it has a "safe" spot to hold it at, a sort of natural wrapper. That you eat. Arguably has more chocolate than either the Klondike or the Drumstick.
The Drumstick. This has a lot going for it. It gives similar flavors to the Klondike, and adds nuts, sometimes caramel. It has a convenient handle. You can eat the handle. A+ execution.
Frozen treats: a thread in no particular order The Klondike Bar, depicted here in its Krunch variant. You can see the shell is almost entirely intact. These do not exist in this condition. Has to be eaten very quickly. Is generally messy. You will attract ants. Otherwise delicious.
