war paint, he's probably in a stadium and either sees fans or players with war paint and he is trying to emulate them.

He probably saw that people around him had face paint so he improvised.

[–]vericgar 5 points6 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

This. Kids imitate the adults they see around them. If he sees other adults with facepaint, he will want facepaint. If he doesn't have facepaint, he will find something that works.

Not WTF at all.

More than likely he is autistic or special needs and this is a sensory thing. He is wiping the ice cream in the same areas of the face and touches the ice cream in a strange way before he finishes the last wipe. If he didn't do this it would cause him a lot of anxiety.

Those are the key spots I tend to notice sunburn first. Maybe he was literally trying to cool those spots off, and just didn't know he was getting burnt.

If you've ever spent time around kids (or very dumb 10 year olds), you'll find that they tend to view ice cream as more of a form of lipstick than food.

he was being hilarious obviously. it is possible for little kids to have a good sense of humor. I just wish I could do something that funny the day i get on the big screen at a sporting event. my plan is to get up and pretend jerk off onto the guy next to me. wipe it in his hair and shit. get hooked in the face

The kid was probably really hot and wanted to keep cool. So his ice cream was the best option available to reduce his body heat.

Gives 0 fucks about ice cream on his face.

I like how he leans in, sticks his finger in the ice cream, then doesn't do anything with it.

Actually, with how he did it the same way each time and he already had marks on his face from doing it before it looks like similiar stuff, yet more messy, that I would do as a kid due to eigther some of the issues I had or the medications I was on. Things like feeling the intense need to move your pupils in an exact pattern or repeat something in the exact order.

The only conclusion I can draw is that it is so hot he is sacrificing his delicious ice cream to stay cool. By looking at the kid I'd say it was tough to not eat the ice cream.
