The company spent a considerable amount of money buying a full page on the Wall Street Journal and New York Times just to say "See? See?! We're not the only jerks here!"

Al-Qaida Is Holding Ice Cream Eating Contests
As if things weren't fucked up enough in Syria, al-Qaida has also set up shop there, fighting in the civil war with the hopes of establishing a new, more oppressive regime. Naturally, the Syrian people aren't big fans of them either -- you know, on account of their tendency to blow up civilians.

Canada Dry: The official soda of family fun and jihad.
The terrorist-organized fair included typical events like a tug-of-war competition between rebel groups, an ice cream eating contest for boys, and the always lively Quran readings for girls.
