BIG GAY ICE CREAM TRUCK

Summer is here dudes… and when we aren’t eating sweaty stank ass or work all day musky cock…
we are eating tubs of sweet cold hard cream. And if you live in New York City, you can have it BIG & GAY!

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Big Gay Ice Cream Truck, or BGICT, is a New York City-based ice cream truck (new shop opens in June) that serves soft serve ice cream cones, cups, and novelties with a menu of unique and unusual flavors and toppings. The Big Gay Ice Cream Truck may be considered part of a wider trend of gourmet or “upscale” food trucks occurring in the United States.

The “gay” in the name of the truck has a double meaning, referring to the sexual orientation of co-founders Doug Quint and Bryan Petroff, as well as simply “happy”. According to Quint: “If I weren’t gay, I wouldn’t call it the Big Gay Ice Cream Truck. And if I weren’t happy, I wouldn’t have the Big Gay Ice Cream Truck. It would just be the big crabby ice cream truck.”

Use of social media:

The Big Gay Ice Cream Truck has made use of social media outlets such as Twitter and Facebook to connect directly with their clientele rather than through traditional means of advertising. Quint and Petroff also frequently blog about their experience both on and off the truck.

History:

Doug Quint is a free-lance classical bassoonist and was looking for a secondary occupation in the summer off-season. A flutist friend had been operating an ice cream truck of her own and suggested doing the same to Quint, who took her up on the suggestion. In June, 2009, Doug Quint and his partner, Bryan Petroff, founded and began operating the Big Gay Ice Cream Truck at Brooklyn Pride in Prospect Park, Brooklyn. They currently operate the Big Gay Ice Cream truck during the summer months, parking at various locations throughout New York City, and tweeting their location and specialty items du jour to their followers.

Twin Peaks Red Ribbon marks 30th AIDS Anniversary

0

100 San Francisco AIDS Foundation volunteers used 15,000 square feet of plastic tarp and 400 stakes to create a huge-assed red AIDS ribbon in remembrance of the thirty year epidemic. One can see the ribbon on the Twin Peaks clear from the East Bay. It will remain up for a month.

“Like an aging movie star, it’s going to look better from a distance,” said Patrick Carney, who was diagnosed with the AIDS virus in 1987 and who today, at 55 years old, relies on dozens of pills and two injections a day to keep his compromised immune system strong.
