I think that is pretty bizarre.\u201d The popular Highlands ice cream kiosk often has long lines late into the night. \u201cI gave it a shot after we ate at Linger one night,\u201d said resident Chris Essex. \u201cI guess it was good. I mean, it was ice cream. But it was a pretty long line.\u201d\n<!--more-->\nAlthough it\u2019s clear that <a href=\"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/posts\/eastbridge-residents-wonder-if-one-ice-cream-kiosk-is-enough\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Stapleton residents like ice cream<\/a>, much of the appeal is simply to make Stapletonians feel more hip. \u201cThe Highlands are a cool place,\u201d said resident Jay Austin. \u201cAnd, many Stapletonians either used to be cool, or at least thought they were cool. But now, they are older, have spouses and kids, real jobs, so they are either considerably less cool, or feel less cool.\u201d Resident Tara D\u2019Hondt agrees. \u201cNothing makes a person feel less cool than being married. I mean, being single is what all the cool people are doing. Ever see the difference between someone when they are married and then get divorced? It\u2019s a pretty big \u2018cool gap.\u2019\u201d Stapleton residents will soon be able to get cool with some Little Man Ice Cream.]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\t\t\t\t<![CDATA[]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[31],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-6194","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-issue-122","7":"entry"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6194","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=6194"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6194\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=6194"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=6194"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=6194"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
