It’s here! The Great Mofo Delurk!
The day has come, my friends. It’s time to make your voice (yes, you! Over there!) known to your kind host.
Far be it for me to leave you hanging out there without something to say, so tell me. The ice cream truck has pulled up outside your residence, which treat would you go for?
1) Fudgsicle Bar
2) Bullet Firecracker Pop
3) Choco Taco
4) Vanilla Ice Cream Bar
5) Rainbow Sherbet Push Pop
6) Giant Ice Cream Sandwich
7) Nutty Buddy Sundae Cone
8) Creamsicle Bar
9) Banana Chocolate Bullet Pop
10) Chocolate Chip Cookie Sandwich
11) Lemon Slush
12) Rainbow Snow Cone
9 times out of 10, this girl would go for the Nutty Buddy Sundae Cone. Okay, now you!
I’d maim anyone who got between me and a Choco Taco. They have a fried ice cream flavor that uses a delicious cinnamon ice cream inside. Heaven.
I’m all about the classic ice cream sandwich…
Choco Taco, all the way.
Back in senior year of high school, when I had something vaguels resembling a metabolism, we were allowed to eat off campus, so every Thursday two friends and I would have Taco Bell Thursday. I’d order a bean burrito and nachos, then go back up after that was all ingested and order a choco taco for the road. Driving back to campus in my old 4-Runner with the sunroof open and Choco-Taco dripping down my arm is one of my few high school memories that didn’t involve feeling like an alien being from the planet Nerd.
right now, given that i’m dying of thirst and too lazy to talk down to the kitchen to get water, i’d have to say the lemon slush. normally, though, i get the creamsicle.
My childhood favorite isn’t shown– the Screwball (great name, huh?)- a lovely cone shaped thing of sherbet, with a gumball in the bottom. But my choice now would most definitely be the Chaco Taco. I’ve been craving them my whole pregnancy!
I’m delurking, by the way. Love your blog! And I LOVE hair Thursdays obsessively. Never stop! :)
choco taco. werd. i de-lurk all the time. :)
Creamsicle. It’s been sooooo long since I had one.
The Giant Ice Cream Sandwich – because the ice cream sandwich is the most perfect ice cream treat in all the land. So simple, so delicious. Make it giant, and I’m SOLD.
On the off chance they are sold out of the Giant Ice Cream Sandwich, then I go for the Bullet Firecracker Pop. Delish.
And also, Banana Chocolate Firecracker Pop?? WTF?? That is just… NO. Just the idea of it makes me throw up in my mouth a little.
(Additionally, consider this my official de-lurk. Love your site, love your hair, etc. Hi!)
We only have a couple of those treats in Canada, so I haven’t tried them all. I would go for the #8 mmmm….
I read, comment sometimes…keep it up!
DUDE!!!! FORGET THE DESSERT, 245 COMMENTS!!!!
will you still be my friend?
Chocolate Chip Cookie Sandwich or the Choco Taco.
Won’t be back again until next year!
delurking, though I do think I’ve delurked before, I just don’t comment a lot. Sorry. i love your site and your hair blogs. You rock. And you have the best name in the world so how can I not like you?
I pick number 7. I love sundae cones. mmmmm
The Bullet Firecracker, baby. I’m Lyndsay – been reading you since your first post and count your sister as one of my best friends.
The Banana Chocolate Bullet Pop. Or the Vanilla Ice cream bar. Or the ice cream sandwich. Hmmm… I’d have to take a poll of everyone in line first, and then see which my friends were getting (so I could have bites!). But actually, I’ve seen too many rusty gross looking ice cream trucks parked in those self storage places. Could we pretend that we just walked to the milk store for a treat like I used to? Okay. then I’ll have the scooter crunch!
The bullet, though I prefer when they’re red on the bottom, so I’m not walking around with a blue lip for the rest of the day.
Always, ALWAYS, the chocolate chip cookie sandwich.
No doubts about it – I’d go for the Choco Taco!
Mmmm…snowcones. Nothing beats hitting the snow cone shack for a cinnamon snowcone…or pink lemonade…or pink champagne…or the ever thought provoking “tiger’s blood”. What flavor is that supposed to be anyway? But, in the absence of a snow cone shack, the generic snowcone from the ice cream truck will work too.
My name is Meridith, and I am a daily lurker.
de-lurking for the day … love your blog!
chocolate chip cookie sandwich (or as i so familiarly refer to it, “the chipwich”) ALL the way. mmm. so yummy.
delurking a little late, love your blog, you are very talented & I want your hair…
the rainbow sherbet push pop!
As a kid I usually went for one of the bullets (that sounds kinda strange); as someone else mentioned, we called them bomb pops. Now I’d definitely go with the nutty buddy, one of my fav’s.
Mom of three and frequent lurker here. Love your blog and your shoe collection on flickr!
MMMMMMMMMMMMM . . . definitely a dreamsicle!!!! that’s what creamsicles were called where i grew up . . . oh my gosh . . . i LOVE them!!!!!!
and we called the bullet thing “bomb pops” too . . . and screwballs . . . man . . .hadn’t thought about them in YEARS!!!!!!!
ok . . . i’m now wanting an ice cream truck to drive by . . . and it’s midnight, so any ice cream truck coming by now would be scarier than heck!!!!
i’m also REALLY fond of the lemon slushie thing – we get them at the state fair . . .
ok . . . i’m off in search of cold frozen sugar . . .
Giant cookie for sure!!
Delurking to throw in my vote for the giant ice cream sandwich — yum!
Also, confessing that I have never ever purchased ice cream from an ice cream truck. I grew up in the sticks =(
Uh. I’m honored to be #274. I mean, you know, what’s better than TWO HUNDRED SEVENTY FUCKING FOUR?! Christ, woman.
I’ll take a fudge bar. But seriously, that’s a no-brainer. It’s chocolate. Goes nicely with my red wine……
Well, seeing as how my son is DEATHLY afraid of the ice cream truck… I would have to walk out there dragging him behind (yes he loves ice cream, but the ice cream truck music is like the Halloween theme song to him) And they have these new Jolly Rancher frozen ice thingies that are DELICIOUS!
And wowza, you have WAY better lurkers than I do. LOL I guess they think I will bite *shrug*
Hands down: creamsicle. There is nothing like a creamsicle on a hot day. Yum!
Hi! I’m a lurker. I love reading your blog! You’re such a cool person! I would choose the Choco Taco :)
choco taco lookin good!!!! ‘
delurkin from SC… xox
The sundae cone all the way. They usually have chocolate in the tip of the cone, and that’s the best part.
choco taco!
Only 3 people delurked for me…I’m kinda sad.
I’m also delurking here as well…as per your command. ;) I’ll go with the cone, although a chipwich is always good as well.
Love your blog and your weekly hair polls. I’m tempted to submit my own…
Delurking… finally. I’ve been an avid reader for about a year.
The giant ice cream sandwich is what it’s all about for me…
I’ll have a Chocolate Chip Cookie Sandwich, thank you.
Definitely the Nutty Buddy Sundae Cone.
I am a lurker, thanks for helping me come out of the shadow!
Oh, hard! Gotta go with the Creamsicle – fond childhood memories.
Hi, I am reen and I’ve been thoroughly enjoying your blog for the short while since I found it. I don’t think I’ve commented yet, so I guess I am indeed a mofo. :)
Vanilla Ice Cream bar. Definitely.
Creamsicle.
Another question: Hypothetically speaking, is 2 PM too early for wine?
The fudgsicle. No doubt about it.
A little behing over here….definitely the sundae cone. YUM! (the were drumsticks in my youth…oh so far away! lol
fudgecicle
Hells bells, I’m a day late. I do read you devotedly though, even though I never comment. As for The Good Humor Man, I’d take a chaco taco. Mmmmaybe a vanilla ice cream bar. Aw, just give me one of each.
WHAT? No screwball??? You know, yummy the sherbert-ish in a plastic cone that you eat with a tiny wooden spoon, with the nasty gum ball out the bottom? Bummer…
I go for the #2 then.
You’ll be hearing from me soon for some Hair Thursday. I’m a frizzball with a six-month old. Also, I live in Charleston, SC (Humidity!!)
Sundae cone!
OK, since you’ve asked nicely I’ll de-lurk for today. Would comment more often if I had something interesting to say! Would be the Bullet (I remember them as rocket pops, early 80s in Southern Ontario?) or the Fudgsicle, although in this paranoid age I’d be reading the ingredient list first, and probably have a big internal conflict on account of artificial colours (sorry, Canadian), artificial flavours (sorry), and carageenan or guar gum. Whenever I crave a green popsicle I experience some regret at the loss of my age of innocence. Popsicles never used to be bad for you right? Of course in the days of my grandmother’s childhood, apparently chewing tar was not bad for you, nor was it considered simply bizarre (before chewing gum? in rural areas? I don’t know, maybe they were just nuts).
I’m late, however I would purchase something different for each member of my family (even the new baby)just so that I could try a number of items. That is one SWEET ice cream truck! We’ll have a number 4, 8, 2, and 6, thank you very much!
Chocolate chip cookie sandwich. Sometimes I buy those from the grocery store – love ‘em!
Ack! Late to the party! Any ice cream left?
I’ll take three sundae cones, please. Because, you know, they are kid-sized and I’m an adult. That’s logical, right? OK, fine. I’ll take two.
I always go with the Bullet Firecracker Pop, it quenches my thirst and last longer. I´ve been an avid reader for more than a year now!

Oops! Forgot to de-lurk yesterday! Anyway, I always go for the Nutty Buddy Sundae Cone. For me, it’s all about the chocolate at the bottom. Yummy! I’ve been know to even hide a couple in Fish Stick boxes, as no one else in my home eats fish..shhhh!
