You just gotta love the Simpsons! I've been watching them for years, although I can't claim that I'm a hardcore fan. I've dated a few of those, but I can only say that I like them. Before the movie came out, the hype was unbelievable. Of course, I have to say that it was a really good flick. I loved it and thought it was hilarious. Along with the hype, I was able to go to the one of the 8 locations of Kwik-E-Marts. There was one not far from my house. It was a free amusement center, and came with all the joys that a 7-Eleven normally provides and exactly what you would expect from a place of that caliber. The Slushee was tasteee and the stickeee-ness was included. The pink doughnuts were available to purchase and a slew of Simpson memorabilia as well. I think the best part was the lady behind the counter with the expression of the Customer Service Employee of the Year. She slouched with a scowl as she watched the children drinking from the slurpee spout and the half melted doughnut was squished in the carpet leading outside into the 107* heat. As I asked her if she was enjoying her day, she rolled her eyes and handed my change saying "Thank you... come again" in a not so Abu tone. I wish I had her job. :)

So, along with millions of other Americans, I've been Simpsonized. What a great way to pass the time, right? HA HA HA.
