Reality Check by Dave Whamond for August 23, 2024

If it’s free, there’s a catch. Especially from strangers.

Nothing is free.

Being an adult is confusing too!

Just go to the store.

Stay away from clowns in storm drains with balloons or anything else.

Hmm, the ice cream truck is playing show tunes, and the van is blasting heavy metal… this is a tough decision!

Them’s the rules!

I’ll have a drumstick…

The ice cream truck doesn’t offer free rides …

You can buy ice cream from a strange man in a truck. You can even pay him a buck. It’s good luck if his name is Chuck. Get some for your duck named Puck.

Do not get free candy from any stranger in a van – even he tells you his name – like Dan or Stan. Do not get it from any strange man.

Free ice cream is another story …!

The candy van/ Oh the candy van can.

The vehicles crashed head on, and sprinkles on ice cream cones was born.

Just as long as it rots your teeth and makes you hyperactive, I mean… What could go wrong! ;-)

But it’s OK to get free candy from strangers in their houses on the evening of 31 October.

Sweet deal.

Santa might be a reverse burglar, but he’s still a burglar.

I like Dave’s Good Humor!

This one puts me in mind of the old Comedy Central program, “Strangers With Candy.”
