Tell them that 7-11 is an American company. That will blow their tops.
The name means it’s open from 7am to 11pm, back when grocery stores were open 10am-8pm. After those hours, if you wanted anything to eat, you were screwed. It’s hard to believe that America used to just go to sleep at night. Unless you were a nurse, a cop, or a baker, you were asleep at night.
Then 7-11 went to 24 hour, expanded into Japan, and did well there and poorly at home. The Japanese 7-11 was spun off into its own company. Years later, they came back and bought the American 7-11. Tell anyone in Asia that 7-11 is as American as baseball and they’ll disbelieve you.
Oh, but change it to white men and Asiatic women…rowr!
:awooga:
I like the top photo better.
God forbid American workers ever get some leverage.
God, I hate people pointing to works of fiction to back up and justify their takes.
Someone literally made that up out of whole cloth, you nerd.
Already do, in Canada!

Alan Nichols had a history of depression and other medical issues, but none were life-threatening. When the 61-year-old Canadian was hospitalized in June 2019 over fears he might be suicidal, he asked his brother to “bust him out” as soon as possible.
Within a month, Nichols submitted a request to be euthanized and he was killed, despite concerns raised by his family and a nurse practitioner.
His application for euthanasia listed only one health condition as the reason for his request to die: hearing loss.
Nichols’ family reported the case to police and health authorities, arguing that he lacked the capacity to understand the process and was not suffering unbearably — among the requirements for euthanasia. They say he was not taking needed medication, wasn’t using the cochlear implant that helped him hear, and that hospital staffers improperly helped him request euthanasia.
Apparently the new T4 Aktion programme has resulted in a wonderful increase in the volume of fresh organs for the transplant business.
