The Ice Cream Stage is a one-man/woman show. If you don't end up living in The Homemade Lasagna Stage, you might find yourself alone watching Titanic and polishing off a pint of ice cream as you curse Rose for hogging the floating door after the boat goes down. This stage consists of a lot of Facebook stalking, drunk texting, and nostalgic feelings towards the Chocolate-Covered Strawberries stage. You won't remember all the bad times that occurred in the Chocolate and Mexican stage - how much their mother didn't like you or how bad of a tipper they were. Instead, you will strictly remember how good they smelled and become hyper-aware of how little your phone rings these days. Don't worry though; you may have lost your beau, but you gained Ben and Jerry - and they come in over 100 different flavours.
