Just hold your nose and you'll be all right, goatschool. And watch where you step on the sidewalks at night.

i always get this urge to move to philly and relive the horrible years of my earlier life, and then i remember that it's probably why i'm half crazy. and then i remember that wawa had the best fuckin pretzels ever.

 

[xfer]

and their iced tea wasn't too shabby, either!

 

[minxnim]

iced tea is gross! i would never drink iced tea.

[goatschool]

i can't say the name of that store. when i'm there, actually, on saturday, i have to say something like "hey, can we stop at the coffee place", or "hey, let's go there"

never tried the iced tea or the pretzels, and they seem to have double packs of hard-boiled eggs. it is the most fascinating food/gas vendor i've ever been to.

 

[minxnim]

and peanut chews! i used to eat a lot of those things.

WAWA rules! We would always stop at the wawa on field trips in my 11th grade science class.

Nothing was more embarassing than having to ask to go to the "MAC at the WAWA".

 

[VangelicSurgeon]

Apparenly Wawa means "Land of the Big Goose" in the language of the Ojibway native american tribe.

 

[goatschool]

i never realized that the tastykake phenom was philly-centric.

i am hooked on the butterscotch krimpet. 3 = 8 grms fat.

 

[avi]

I used to ride my bike to WaWa for comic books and Icees way back when I lived in West Chester, PA.

 

[xfer]

I got stony stares from my Philly co-workers when I pronounced Tastykake as "not bad, almost as good as Hostess". Lesson learned.

 

[goatschool]

not even as good as drake's, in my opinion, but serviceable.

 

[VangelicSurgeon]

tastycake is mid-atlantic, bitchez. Like UTZ and SNYDERS. we all ABOUT that shit in Baltimore.

When a serious discussion of snack food occurs, you know it's a slow day.
