DANIEL: You know what I want to get from you -- apart from those things we can't talk about?
ME [extremely confused]: Wait, what things we can't talk about?
DANIEL: I want you to help me figure out how to make an ice cream cake.
ME: Buh?

I've heard of guys using their gal friends for many an adventure or advice, but ICE CREAM CAKE? That's some sort of cruel.

[fakely_mctest]

Plus, I have not the foggiest idea how to make an ice cream cake!

At least I'm not his emotional girlfriend. I hate that shit.

[spellercopter]

WHAT? BUT GIRLS JUST KNOW HOW TO MAKE ICE CREAM CAKE.

p.s. I just now realized you had a Birds icon. I used to have a Tippi Hedren one I used, but I stupidly got rid of it.

Unfortunately, I was totally absent that day in Girl Class.

I think that's when I missed the lesson on The Girl Code as well.

Right now my perception is that it involves a block of ice cream and a blowtorch. That could be right. Right?!

[mercuryfading]

Yeah. Boys are crazy.

"The things we can't talk about" sounds like more of that passive-aggressive BS that has gotten my ire up lately. Oh I'm going to mention it and then expect you to bring it up because I don't actually have the nerve to say what I mean.

Ice cream cake...bake a cake. Let ice cream soften. Spread ice cream on top of cake layer. Frost. Freeze. I mean, right?

[fakely_mctest]

That's pretty much what I thought. [rolls eyes]

I mean, I suppose, in a way, this is preferable to a situation where I'm forced to do the whole obnoxious woman-as-gatekeeper thing. Naturally, however, I'd rather it be a scenario where the subject is set aside. It's like: just stop poking at it!

WRT ice cream cake -- how would you keep the ice cream from, like, sticking to the cake and then rolling up (and taking some of the cake with it) when you were trying to spread it like frosting? (has no cake magic)

[dr_scroton]

I totally agree with Mercuryfading's idea of how to make an ice cream cake.

Yeah, he wants you and knows he "can't" say it except he totally just did. It's a great way of fullfillig his desire to tell you he wants you while technically not doing anything which he could get in trouble for. Silly boy.

[fakely_mctest]

Sort of what I figured, but I always need independent verification on anything having to do with the opposite sex.
