Seven Eleven Finally Evolves Into Kwik-E-Mart

As kids we actually thought Kwik-E-Mart was a real but mislabeled place, and now Seven Eleven will make the mistake easier for the next generation to make by (possibly) gussing up 11 of their stores as Kwik-E-Marts.

The liaison hasn’t been officially inked but it’s part of a joint promotional effort for The Simpsons Movie. The tricked-out stores will include beloved Simpsons products like Buzz Cola, KrustyO’s Cereal and Squishees.

This would be way funnier if Kwik-E-Mart rip-offs didn’t already exist. As things stand, a chain of stores toting the name exist in Minnesota. Strangely, there is also one in downtown Pittsburgh. And while you probably can’t get KrustyO’s at these locales you can probably get Spooners, which can’t be much better and boast an equally psychotic-looking mascot.

Received Pronunciation, the accent linguists still nickname the Queen’s English, took shape inside a handful of England’s most expensive private schools, and it remains such a reliable marker of that background that a stranger can often place someone’s education within a single sentence.
