    NY likes it bigger, but as soon as the heat turns up they melt, and you wind up in a sticky situation.

    Wow. I would never have guessed that a giant popsicle out in the open would MELT ON DAMN NEAR THE HOTTEST DAY OF THE YEAR.
    MANY DIABETICS DIED TODAY BECAUSE OF YOUR LACK OF FORETHOUGHT, NOOOOOOOOOOO.

    However I wouldn't have ran, I would've taken that sugar wave, it would've been so awesome.
