Capitalism rules no matter what. That may just be the attitude of some northeast Harris County neighborhood ice cream men.
I was on the scene of a very tragic death Wednesday. Dozens of people were standing outside near the remains of a 15 year old female student. She was run over by a school bus. Many of the victim's classmates were crying and breaking down. Then out of the blue comes what? A man pushing an ice cream cart. He started asking distraught people if they wanted to buy an ice cream as they wait for their friends body to be peeled off the street. Come on dude, now is not the time for you to try and make a buck. What do you think?
very insensitive, but ice cream often helps me cope.
ReplyDeleteWhat about all your idiot cohorts Isah (Maybe, you too included?)
ReplyDelete"I know your friend was just killed, how do you feel?
"Looks like your house just burned down, how do you feel?
etc etc
Comfort Food perhaps?
ReplyDeleteNot saying it was right. But ol' boy was just trying to get his hustle on. lol. Little did he know one sentence "Wanna buy some ice cream?" would get him a prime spot on The Insite.
