Apparently you haven't been to Florida. You know, where it's 90 degrees out in the middle of December.
(although, lately it's been about 70 degrees at night).

We would around here, if we had this mythical "Slurpee" thing.

Is that like an Icee?

That's not winter! :disapprove:

and sort of. But far superior. Slurpee is the 15* S-Rank of cold slush beverages and deserts.

It's an oralagasm.

Also: Anytime is Slurpee time.

Australia's ice based beverages suck. you roll into a servo and grab one and its like liquid failure. The only decent one is the frozen coke they have at the movies.

Lol.
I don't know if I'd like powdered milk, but I rarely drink it as it is now.

It's really my dream to someday live in Alaska though.
I have a ten year plan. If I'm not there by the tenth year, I will be disappointed in myself.

I wonder if bagged milk is just an eastern Canadian thing.
I live in Alberta, and I have never seen it, ever, in my entire life.

Also I prefer Blizzards to Slurpees. Slurpees always seem to get watery at the end for me, whereas an ice cream and assorted candy/fruit/desserty-type-item foodstuff is always nice.

My blizzards are always soupy by the time I get to the last 1/5. :(

Blizzards are on a completely different scale than slurpees.
Blizzards are what, ice cream/frozen yogurt, and slurpees are somewhat frozen heaven with (usually) soda/cherry/blue flavoring.

Completely different.

According to Wikipedia (lol) they don't carbonate Slurpees in Canada, that's weaksauce.

Also, I haven't seen a 7-Eleven in years.

Wow, really?
There's a 7-Eleven on just about every corner around me. (not literally, but around my house, I can count at least 3 within 5 miles).
If I go about 8 miles, which is normal driving around, I can hit 3 more.

I will take a picture of the stupidity of some people.
There are 3, yes 3 gas stations on ONE intersection.
One is a privately owned, one is Sunaco, and the other is...I forget.
All 3 serve gas, and then normal "convenient" store products.

I don't think they actually have 7-Eleven stores in Minnesota... Or anywhere between here and Mississippi, for that matter.

I'm pretty sure that I've never actually seen one.

Wait, Slurpees are carbonated? Suddenly, I feel the need to personally test this claim.

I beg to differ. Every time is slurpee time.Agreed. Nothing beats 20 degrees F outside (our usual low), air conditioning in the car on max, and a Slurpee.

In Canada, the Ranch Dressing and French Dressing had a baby:

FRANCH salad dressing.

And I own 2 Canadian medias.
DVD of "The Cooler," with a mapleleaf(?!) on its PG-18 rating thing, I got a whole topic idea on this movie premise later.

And Tokyo Extreme Racer 3 : PS2. Target labeled it "Tokyo Extreme 3 FRENCH"

FRANCH Canedian?

[spoiler-box]I'll talk about it with KodiaX987 here or something. Maybe capture some video for the gaming thread, about how many things go wrong with it. Which their team improved a little for the XBLOX360 one, called not even Tokyo Extreme anymore but "Import Tuner Challenge."[/spoiler-box]
