I assure you, this was a real conversation:
Is that cookies and cream ice cream?
Uh-huh…
Heh…there must be someone in the morgue…
Come again?
When there’s loads of fresh flowers and good ice cream flavors out it usually means there’s someone in the morgue…means they need the room….
Oh yeah, true. Oh well, it’s still good ice cream…
Dessert in the Rue Morgue, huh? I’ll keep an eye out for ghosts the next time I’m on a ship with excessively fresh flowers…
