Ice Cream Joke
A kid with down syndrome is sitting at home when he hears the ice cream truck, so he runs over to his mother, who gives him a dollar, and he runs outside. Quivering with excitement, he starts saying “iicee cweeeaaamm”…. until the truck comes, when he starts waving at the truck, and screaming “iicee cweeeaaamm, I want iicee cweeeaaamm”. The truck drives right by, without stopping. Crestfallen, the boy watches it drive away, and with a tear mumbles “iice cweam”. The next day the same thing happens, except that he goes halfway out on the street, and starts waving his hands and screaming “iicee cweeeaaamm”… but again the ice cream truck just drives on by, and he goes back into the house crestfallen. The next day he decides he is going to stand in front of the ice cream truck. He proceeds to do just that, and waves and screams “iicee cweeeaaamm”. The truck revs his engine and then just rides right over him! The driver not content with just knocking him down, proceeds to drive back and forth crushing the poor kid. The boys mother, hearing the commotion, comes running out, and realizing what happened, she screams at the driver “why would you do such a thing”? The driver, head down, gaze on the floor mumbles “he waz makiing fuun of mee”.
