That’s not very nice, trying to scam a kid out of their cool leaf for a measly ice cream.
In an effort to teach my kid about money, I offered to give my kid $1 to buy the rocks in their pocket. They said yes, but took my dollar and tried to walk away. After wrestling the dollar back, it became a uneasy truce where we both hand things back at the same time.
And halfway through, my kiddo said this was dumb and gave me some of his rocks if I left him alone.
There’s no meaning to this story.
That’s a dumb story. I give you my upvote. Now leave.
If they try to stay will you wrestle your upvote back?
Truly wonderful, the mind of a child is
I mean, he learned haggling? Usually that happens BEFORE the exchange of money but… It’s a start I suppose
he learnt theft and bribery.
She knows what she’s got.
I ain’t takin any low-ballers here!
A cool leaf for a bomb pop is highway robbery. That’s worth an okay leaf at best.
Do we have a kidsarefuckingstupid community? We should
Edit: I guess people haven’t heard about the joke sub that posted silly stories about kids doing illogical things. Ya know, kids being kids.
I’m willing to settle for c/kidsarefuckingadorable if there is no similar community yet
Okay, yeah, funny story, but are these the bomb pops that you can buy in a box of 20 for like $4? Or do ice cream trucks get something different? I need to know.
The ice cream they sell at my local public swimming pool has “not for individual resale” written on the packaging.
Depends on the size and the truck. The ones when I was a kid had the big 'uns. I don’t know what size you’re getting when it’s 20 for $4 but I imagine it’s one of the smaller ones. The flavor is the same though.
It doesn’t matter to me, though. The orange sherbet Flintstones push ups were superior in every way.
If your favorite ice cream isn’t a screw ball (with gum on the bottom) then you are wrong. 2nd place is one of the cartoon character heads with gumballs for eyes.
If you’re not getting the one that vaguely looks like sonic the hedgehog we can’t be friends.
I’m on team Michelangelo.

The guy thinks he can get the $1 trillions leaf for an ice cream 🤑
How would you know the temperature of the leaf, unless you took it from the kid anyway?!
