Ya got a cone up yer arse?
Oddly, I could see myself getting irked by that!
So, is it still Neopolitan if all three flavours are swirled together or do they have to be separate?
This is one of my pet peeves.

Hahaha, I just realized its “Neapolitan” not “Neopolitan” there, OB.
Nice one!
Oops, forgot the quote
“Marge! We need some more vanilla, chocolate and strawberry ice cream!”
The people who think it’s “Napoleon” are likely the same people who spell out “your an idiot” lol oh!The irony is beautiful
The Nova Scotia education system strikes again.
I only like hard chocolate ice cream – sans chips, goo, bits of knobs, etc. Just good old fashioned hard chocolate ice cream…
Now I keep hearing my Sister singing Waterloo by Abba, Thanks OB….JEEZ.
2 scoops of Idris Elba for Mr. Meaty. In a waffle cone please.
*Sharp eyed readers will discern that I ,also, made a Napoleonic reference*
Wasn’t Napoleon a Neopolitan?
able was I, ere I saw elba
Oh, a palindrome!
What about, “Madam, I’m Adam.”
Je suis Neopolitan!
I keep it simple. It was always “3 Flavour” growing up 😛
My friend still calls speghetti – “sketty”. It’s a little pathetic but kinda cute and endearing. When I was a kid, leotards were called “leertards” and fools gold was “floris gold”. Cajun spice chips were called “Chazzan spice”.
pusgetti and underpits are our family words. maybe the customer was making a joke about the name. like asking for a martoonie
^^ Just like Here Comes Honey Boo-Boo.
Mary, your French is excellent. I just gave you a “like.”
I got a friend who calls aluminium , Al -You- Min -E -um

Don’t let a couple scoops of napoleon ice cream ruin yer day ~;p
