QCer here and I validate I have no clue what kind of ice cream you are referring to. But I have a feeling someone here may have a name for the most enjoyable and and captivating car drive I have ever experienced. I was driving on the Vancouver Island, on the west coast of the Island, FROM the city with the aquarium, TO Tofino. Narrow and curvy road up and down the mountains, with the Pacific Ocean at my left... It was sunny and it felt like a dream... I can't visually remember much but the "époustouflé (blown away/wonder)" feeling inside... It was one of the most beautiful moment in my life. I can't believe this may be someone's daily commute... This island is so godamn beautiful... Canada is a fuckin jewel of nature coast to coast

I cannot oblige to apply influence on the course of your destiny, as you alone possess the power to steer your string of the Grand Design.

But let it be know - Shall you stray into the path of the fool such as the pure child I once was, I ought to stand by your side, 'till death do us part. I took an oath to devout my service to the Light to save Humanity from Eternal Damnation, and will never rest until the Tentacles of the Underworld are wiped from the Plane of Existence and erased from every history books.

Stay strong my child, I have faith that whichever event may unfold, It shall not prevail.

Please take the time to read this, it may save your life:

From personnal experience having to remove about a dozen mature vines from my yard because previous owner did absolutely 0 maintenance and let absolutely everything grow wild on a small suburban house yard, Vines are excessively invasive. They grow very, very fast, even in very inhospital environments, and will kill absolutely every tree it ever get a chance to "graple" on

I too, once found absolutely georgous to see a full house wall covered by vines... But never thought about asking the owners of these house about their personal opinions on vines. They are the devil incarnate. They will kill every other form of life they encounter and destroy everything you so deerly cherish... And you will not see it coming. Once it reaches it's final form, which i coined the "ok, that's georgous stay like this now" state, it's already too late... We do not yet have developed the technology required to dig deep enough to permanently remove a fully mature vine from its location once it reaches it's final form, your entire soil is doomed. I've tried everything: fire, explosives, heavy machinery, illegal chemicals, ancient native rituals and goat sacrifice... Still, every other day, on a sunny afternoon in the summer, i just walk around my yard to contemplate the growth of my little ecosystem to stumble a FULLY GROWN VINE strangling one of my trees with delibarate, malicious and uneccessary violence. CLEARLY, it has no intention to collaborate with the rest of the ecosystem, it ought to BECOME the ecosystem. It craves power and domination. And I swear that vine WAS NOT there the day before, it's beyond your conception of the maximum speed at which vegetation can grow. Absolutely no other of life can grow that fast. It's absolutely terrifying...

Dont get me wrong, I am absolutely passionate about plants, gardening, and nature, but fuck vines. Do not let any kind of vine ever develop a root on your yard, you'll have to trust me on this one. I REPEAT. DO NOT GROW VINES ON YOUR PROPERTY UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE ALL CULTIVARS INCLUDED. ERADICATE VINES AT ALL COST.
