Flavors

"Your sign says that the specials are Neo-Neopolitan and Spider," Florence said to the young man behind the counter. "I know you're trying to be funny, but I think that could scare little children." "You want a sample?" the ice cream dude replied flatly. "Of spider flavor?" she repeated, incredulous. "Honestly, I don't think that's funny." He moved to the far left case, where 2 mystery flavors were set apart from the others. "We also have snake," he reported in a bored, monotone voice. "I DO NOT THINK ANY OF THIS IS OKAY," Florence huffed, turning abruptly and leaving the line. "Snake, please," hissed the next customer - a smiling little boy with burning coals for eyes. "Coming right up!" the ice cream dude replied, taking the lid off (and making sure to scoop some extra scales).
