Question of the Day: Real Talk: Where does Mister Softee go during the Winter?


It was two New York summers ago, I was walking down the block with two friends. We heard Mister Softee's trademark song that he jacked from Scott Joplin, probably 50 years ago... and we passed a woman who asked her friend, " I wonder where Mister Softee goes for the Winter." When we heard her question we laughed, but 10 mins later, we realized that we had no real answer to her question. So what does the guy who drives the Mister Softee truck do during the cold months? Does he have a second job? Is he a mall Santa? Does he collect unemployment? How do you even end up being Mister Softee, bringing joy to children from the suburbs to the projects. This is real talk( Thanks T.I for your major influence on my everyday language..), I need answers....
