For purely visual reasons, Ernie’s quest for the perfect chocolate, strawberry, peach, vanilla, banana, pistachio, peppermint, lemon, orange, and butterscotch ice cream cone is still one of my favorite Sesame Street skits, even though I don’t usually condone the mixing of fruit and dairy.
Still. stop whining, Ernie! You’re about to eat 10 scoops of ice cream that miraculously haven’t toppled to the floor. Mr. Bluman didn’t mess up your order at all. It’s not the world’s job to cater to your ridiculous whims. Time to embrace an alternate perspective, man. C’mon, don’t be a tool.
Whoa, what just happened? I blacked out. Time for ice cream.
This shoddy transfer doesn’t do the ice cream cone justice. There needs to be another box set of Sesame Street Old School, and this needs to be on it.
Just eat the cone,Ernie.
Aw gee Bert,it really is NOT what I ordered.
You don’t condone mixing fruit with dairy? I guess no strawberries, bananas or blueberries on your breakfast cereal … and no pineapple on your pizza … and no strawberry shortcake … or raspberry cheesecake … is it lunchtime yet?
I whole-heartedly agree about not mixing fruit and dairy. They are each wonderful on their own, but they should definitely be left that way!
