What A Conehead, Part 2
I’m a customer with my grandparents in an ice cream shop. We are sitting on stools near the counter when a man walks in.
Customer: “Can I have five scoops of vanilla in a cone, please?”
The woman behind the counter smiles and starts putting one scoop on a cone and then repeating the action with four others.
Customer: “What are you doing?”
Employee: “You asked for five scoops, sir.”
Customer: “Five scoops on the same cone, you idiot!”
His voice escalates rather quickly.
Employee: “But sir—”
Customer: “What? Can’t a man have an ice cream?”
Employee: “Well, sir, for you to have five scoops would be impossible. Our cones, even the extra large, couldn’t hold that amount.”
Customer: “This is ridiculous! How hard is it to get a proper ice cream round here?!”
At this point, he has grabbed the attention of a manager.
Manager: “Can I help you, sir?”
Customer: “D*** right, you can help me! This woman isn’t serving me. All I want is five scoops of ice cream on one cone!”
Manager: “Sir, our cone sizes cannot fit five scoops on them; you can easily see that.”
Customer: “So?! I want my ice cream!”
The manager pauses for a second.
Manager: “Sir, have you ever been to an ice cream shop where they sell five scoops on one cone?”
Customer: “Well… er… no, actually.”
The guy is less angry now.
Manager: “Then I’m sorry, but we can’t help you.”
The manager walks away along with the serving girl.
Customer: “I deserve rights to ice cream you know!”
The man then left in a huff. We started laughing and finished our ice cream, while the manager and employee smiled and carried on with their day as usual.
