The Nefarious Pickle And Ice Cream Dinner

They usually administer a fairly comprehensive psychological exam when one joins the army or signs up for the police force, so it is always best to keep one’s skeletons in one’s closet as far away from the topic of conversation as possible. And if anyone asks you what you’d like for dinner, do not ask for a pickle and ice cream. If you do that, they will label you a certifiable nut job.

There is one alternative. Bring a second person with you. Order a pickle and ice cream. Give him the pickle and keep the ice cream for yourself. Or, there is always the third choice: order a pickle and ice cream and give them both to your friend. Who cares if people think he’s the nut, so long as you leave the building unscathed and with your reputation intact.

Some people will eat the weirdest things. Sometimes the combination of food items they eat usually makes no sense and the venues they choose to display their acquired food tastes may not always be the best choice of judgment. For example, no one will eat a rack of spareribs all by themselves at a funeral. The two just don’t go well.

Now, in the privacy in one’s own home, one can take part in anything they wish provided they don’t get caught. So, if one decide a pickle and ice cream sandwich is a good idea, then one should go for it. However, if people find out about this, it would be safe to say that one’s reputation in the community will go south in a bug time hurry. So, if one decides that running for congress is a potential future job idea, then that pickle and ice cream dinner may be something one should keep a lid on.

There is one sector of society that CAN order pickle and ice cream without causing a blink of the eye from anyone.  If you are an expectant Mother, no one will think your order the least bit unusual!
