Oh yeah. We went to Dairy Queen a lot too. And there was this place in Shawano that had this humongous, four-scoop banana split. It was called the Pig's Dinner, and it came in a little wooden trough. Oftentimes the cry could be heard on the farm, "Dad, can we go to Dehns and get Pig's Dinners?"

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I prefer all soda either in a can, or in old fashion coke-bottle kind of glass bottles. So I am always drinking "diet-coke-in-a-can" at work with another lady even though we have to go to another building to get it. I am thinking of bringing iin a 12 pack, though, to safe money. In college I used to ALWAYS has a 12 pack of diet coke in my car, until the time it froze and blew up. I have also had a bottle of red wine blow up in my car. Perhaps it is a good thing I am now carless.

I finally stocked the new apartment with food and did not buy either root beer or ice cream. Want.
Have not seen a BevMo nearby, will have to google to see if there is one around.
eta - No BevMo in Colorado. Sigh.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
That is sad. You should come visit us here, and we will make a run.

OMG, I totally forgot that there was this dairy we used to go to in high school, called "The Annis Dairy". At one point, I had friends that worked there. And we always, with the sense of humor of high school students, called it "The Anus".
It also reminds me that growing up in the country we did a lot of our teenager-type hanging around by driving from place toplace-- like "Let's go get ice cream!" but then we would end up getting ice cream in a town 50 miles away. We drove around so much. I sort of wonder if people in the city took long subway rides together....

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I can't recall ever going to an A&W. Floats came from ice cream parlors. There was a Dairy Queen nearby, but we didn't go there too often.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
We just lied about getting ice cream and then hung out in the Commom or Harvard Square or where ever (my one friend's mother wouldn't accept "going out" as a destination). There was also a route around half of Cambridge we used to drive, just in case we'd see someone we knew.

If the house doesn't sell soon, I'm going to have to scratch that trip in November. Am bummed.

Hanging out as teenager when not at someone's house would usually be at a diner.

My friends and I used to do that too. Sometimes we'd be all, "Let's go to Manawa!" and we'd make the 25 minute drive though the country, to a town even smaller than ours, and buy candy. Movies were an hour's drive away in Green Bay or Appleton. We did that quite a lot, as there wasn't much to do in our town besides drink and bowl (and I didn't drink then).
