7-11's are the best way to go. There's something special about that cheap-ass chili at 7-11.
There are no 7-11s around here anymore. They left the area a long time ago. So the way to go here would probably be a Buc-ee's.
Oh that sucks. Nothing else like a genuine 7-11 Slurpee on a hot day, either. The other gas stations just have B-knock-offs.

Icees are just as good and easy to find.

Just not the same. 7-11 Slurpees are more frosty, while the Icees are more, well icey. And the Slurpees have a slight tingle to them like soda, while the Icees are more like Kool-Aid tasting.

Glad I still have 7-11 at the edge of my neighborhood.

We only just got 7-11s a few years ago here.

I've never been to a 7-11. We always had local corner stores in all the towns back home. Kit and I would go get boiled peanuts and an Abita Rootbeer or ICEE every weekend.

I wish when people at work would ask me if I can make it to a certain event, that they'd actually bother tell me the date and time so I could, you know, answer their question accurately in one email instead of three. I would think it would be natural to think to include that information in the first place, but apparently I am mistaken.

I can't believe they didn't make a game for Spirited Away! It's one of the two anime related things that i like.

How would this work as a game in any way?

A JRPG in the vein of Ni No Kuni? Or better yet an adventure game. One where you explore the world of the movie. Like many unseen parts of the bathhouse, filled with weird creatures etc. You'd talk to them, do fetch quests, solve puzzles etc. *Drools*

Also looking to buy: Ys III (TG-16 CD), Shadowrun (Genesis) Hori N64 mini pad and Slayer (3DO) in long box/just the long box
