Today, my husband and I went to the store. Because we have no car, we had to walk four miles in the 115 fahrenheit weather. It didn't click until we were standing outside the door with a metric shit-tonne of ice-cream, that we'd have to tear ass back home to keep it all from melting. FML

I agree, your life sucks

You deserved it

4 miles for some ice cream? Now that's determination

So, you purchased 1000 kgs of ice-cream (plus whatever the difference is between a shit-tonne and a regular tonne is), with a distance of 6.4 kms needed to travel, in an environment of roughly 46'C, which gives you an estimated time of 10 minutes before it's melted beyond consumption........Interesting.
I guess the only question I have to that is, can you and your husband maintain a running speed of no less than 38.4 km/h, with a tonne strapped to your combined asses, for 10 solid minutes?
Because if not, you may not have thought this through very well. :)

10- But then they would have NO ice cream, and that would be a sad, sad day.

After eating as much as you can, have an ice cream fight!

PrimeEvilTahir | 23

#4640269 - Monday 2 July 2012 6:49

There are several solution to this:
Taxi/cab
Bus
Use a friend to drop you
Rent a car
Borrow a car

If none of the solution provided is readily available, talk to the store manager to allow you to keep the icecream in the freezer till you comeback with a car. I'm sure you can find SOME sort of transport faster than your two legs...

#4639777 - Monday 2 July 2012 4:30

then probably gained it all back eating it.

Yeah well, ice-cream is so totally worth it!! Especially if it involves chocolate :D

#4640036 - Monday 2 July 2012 5:39

If it melts re-freeze it? I mean might be a little frozen burnt but totally worth it.

You'll never make it. My best advice would be to sit your ass down on the curb, grab a spoon, and dig in. Feel free to share what you can't finish. Then you all can send thanks to whomever the genius was who invented ice cream in the first place.

I'd say they may as well take their time instead of walking four miles in 115 degree weather unless of course they want heat stroke.

In the wilds of Suburbia, I can imagine Survivorman advising viewers to use ice cream to survive the blistering heat on that trek.

Instead of ice cream you'll have milkshakes.

No. It just has that faint moldy texture, makes you wanna taste and that's whats tricking you .

Is "shirt-ton" a new measuring unit that I wasn't aware of?

"shit-ton"

kyleekay | 25

#4639390 - Monday 2 July 2012 2:28

It was "shirt-ton" originally. The mods probably edited it.
