I think that 7-Eleven is ripping off The Simpsons. When I went in there today, they were selling Squishees with the Quik-E-Mart logo on them, and there were pictures of Homer Simpson all over the place. I asked the staff there, and they said they were promoting the new Simpsons Movie coming out soon. Have you guys seen this happen? |

They were obviously being paid to advertise that. |

Why would someone rip-off a fictional place? It's called advertising. |

So that's what, 3-1? Advertising theory wins. |

I read about this on I am Bored, and it's pretty cool. They aren't doing it here, they're only doing that in a few states. Maybe just one. |

Does anyone actually read the news around here? Yes, you are correct. 7 Eleven is part of a The Simpsons Movie marketing campaign. The places get a new look and sell Squishees, Buzz Cola, and Krusty-Os. |
