Back story: I went to Dairy Queen and got a Blizzard. The following e-mail conversation is between my sister Geleene and I.
Me: Yeah, that’s the one I’m talking about. But I don’t think there were 25 flavors listed. I could be wrong. Hopefully they made it good. the people at that DQ are very nice but not very smart.
Geleene: Didn’t they do the turn upside down thing to show you that it’s nice and thick?
Me: No.
G: They always do it here. At all the ones I’ve been to.
M: Sometimes they do it but I’ve never seen them do it at this one.
G: I’m always like, I’m not eating that if it falls on the ground, effer.
M: Effing DQ showoffs. I wish it would fall on the ground, that would be embarrassing and hilarious.
G: Ha ha, I know. I would love to see that.
M: They probably only flip it when they are confident it won’t spill.
G: Yeah. I’m gonna sneak in there and thin out their ice cream so that it comes out of the cup when they try to be all fancy.
M: Let me know so I can be on hand to witness it. And then I will probably blog about it.
M: Let me know so I can be on hand to witness it. And then I will probably blog about it.
G: No way. I will start my own blog about how I took down DQ. Only I will use some word like “usurped” or maybe “dethroned” to tie into the sound of royalty in the name.
M: You can’t take down DQ because it is owned by Warren Buffett and he is my hero, after Ben Franklin.
G: What? Why does Warren Buffett own DQ? That is weird.
M: Um, because it is delicious? Warren Buffett is a GENIUS.
Dear Warren Buffett and/or Dairy Queen- please send me money and Blizzard treats. Thank you.

commenter's note: the DQs in AK SUCK! They don't turn the blizzards upside down and their attitude is this: "Screw you, bizzo. What are you going to do? Go somewhere else??". Good point. This is AK. There are 2 DQs in Anchorage. DQ: 1 Commenter: 0. still love a blizzard, tho.
