Who else needs the Kwik-E-Mart?

Last week I mentioned that the 7-Eleven convenience store chain is celebrating the release of The Simpsons Movie by converting 11 of its stores into Kwik-E-Marts. I live near one, and because many of you aren't as fortunate, I thought I'd make a 7/11 post and share some pictures.

Bart: OK, we're young, rich, and full of sugar. What do we do?
Milhouse: Let's go crazy, Broadway style!


Mmm, free goo.

The attractions inside are equally impressive. What a bargain!

As in Springfield, this Kwik-E-Mart takes care of Henderson's finest.

As an Indian-American, should I be offended by Apu? I don't think so. Until recently, he's all we had to look at on TV. (Ahem!) Plus, any show that features a Hindi version of "Close to You" deserves our respect. Finally, let's face it: he's funny.

"Check it out, a freezer geezer!" (Do we even know this guy's name?)

Alas, no chutney Squishee. ("You can really taste the chutney!") They also carried Krusty-O's cereal and Buzz cola. No special beer, though; I guess Duffman was busy.

I indeed live in a corner of the world that isn't graced by 7-11's, so I've missed out on all the fun ... The latest trailer for the movie, the one that proceeded "Transformers," just looked amazing, so I'm holding out hope that this is just gonna be really funny from start to finish

You're kidding me. You don't know Jasper's name?!

Thanks for the pics, though. There's one kind of near me, but I hate crossing the Potomac, so I ain't going.

Reel: I stopped watching the show ages ago, so I don't really have any expectations; I just hope it's fun.

APL: Jasper, huh? I was just going to call him Frostilicus.

Duffman is thrusting in your general direction.
