    Its funny to think of PA as being northeast. I guess so but in the norther easter, we don’t have anything but Cumbies, 7/11s, and Circle Ks and they’re shit.

      Cumbies

      I prefer Cum Farm, tyvm.

      Weird hearing about Circle K though. Never heard of one for 12 years while living in MD, then saw them everywhere down in Florida. Don’t recall ever seeing a Circle K in states around MD either. 7/11 is pretty ubiquitous, however in FL they always had gas pumps and in MD it was just a corner store. It’s so weird how much it can vary from region to region, and sometimes even by bordering states.

        Circle K bought a fairly large regional brand in my area and converted them to Circle K.

        Circle Ks are dying and 7/11 almost did in the 90s and now it’s only a straggler in a few towns up here.

        There are new replacements but they aren’t memorable enough to bother learning the names of.

      I mean it’s not New England but it’s definitely the north east, same with New York and New Jersey.
