I just don't get itPoor Semiret, he's foreign and has no idea if he "should laugh about the whole 'only playing music when they are out of ice cream' thing or not." There's also a Far Side cartoon that has had him stumped for almost 20 years.
What don't you understand? What have you politely gone along with whilst internally going WTF?

I'm gonna make enemies with this one...Why do people think Winston Churchill was such a good speaker? Yes, he was the man for the job in WWII, we couldn't have done it without him; but the man took forever to say anything!
Could you imagine him ordering dinner at a restaurant? "I'll have the t-bone. Not the sirloin, or the filet, or the hamburger steak or the chicken or even the London broil. The t-bone. Not the ham. With veggies. Not the potato, or the chips, or the rice. Veggies. To quench my thirst I shall have not the cola, nor the water..."
Not like FDR who asked Congress to declare "wah" on the axis powers...
