The Ice Cream Parlor

A woman walks into an ice cream parlor just before it closes. The employee behind the counter asks if he can help her and she replies, "Yes, I would like a chocolate ice cream cone, please."

"I'm sorry," the employee replied, "we just ran out of chocolate ice cream. Can I get you something else?"

The woman thinks for a minute and says, "Yes, I would like a sundae with nuts, whipped cream and chocolate ice cream."

The employee is a bit confused but recovers quickly and says, "I'm sorry ma'am, maybe you didn't quite hear me the first time. We just ran out of chocolate ice cream a few minutes before you came in. This is the first time that has ever happened and I apologize. Our new order comes tomorrow morning. But in the mean time, can I get you something else?"

Again, the woman thinks for a minute before saying, "Yes, I would like a banana split with whipped cream and cherries and chocolate ice cream."

Now the employee is irritated. How is this woman not getting that he's out of chocolate? So he says, "ma'am, I have to ask you a question. Can you spell the van in vanilla?"

The woman looks a bit confused but says, "Yes, V-A-N"

"And can you spell the straw in strawberry?"

"S-T-R-A-W"

"OK, one last question. Can you spell the fuck in chocolate?"

"But there is no fuck in chocolate!"

"Lady, that's what I've been trying to tell you the whole time!"
