Fists of FroYo

After walking by the 16 Handles on Second Avenue the last few weeks and seeing this... "Now handling: Fist Pumpkin" ...


I decided to see just what Fist Pumpkin meant. Seemed like something I'd find at Urban Dictionary... but, according to a 16 Handles news release:

16 Handles™ ... welcomes back seasonal favorite ‘Fist Pumpkin,’ a beloved, limited edition frozen yogurt designed to capture the spirit and flavor of the autumn harvest.

“Fist Pumpkin got its name from the reaction we saw when guests tasted this flavor—lots of excitement and even a little fist pumping,” said Solomon Choi, 16 Handles founder. “We’re excited to welcome Fist Pumpkin back into the mix and to reunite our brand fans with a flavor that they look forward to all year.”

So now you know too...

    I don't believe in God, but I will now go pray for this retarded chain to go out of business.

    Can they take Fist Pumpkin and move to Fist City?

    Many tears of laughter now falling.
    But if this place has customers who would actually pump their fists in the air over frozen yogurt, I really fear for the neighborhood's sanity.

    Will we now start hearing frenzied "Woo!"'s emanating from fro-yo shops at all hours of the day and night?

    The horror...the horror...
