incidentally, I'm pretty sure IGA is unrelated.

*does some research*

Oh.

Turns out that they just bought a few IGA franchisees, not IGA itself.

So here's a conversation I had with my husband.

Me: Do you know what a Wawa is?
Husband: Yeah, it's a gas station.
Me: *gasp* How'd you know? :o
Husband: When we lived in Virginia, it was the only gas station for miles!
Me: Don't remember.
Husband: We lived there for 6 months, how could you not remember?!

[Monorea]

Because it wasn't relevant to you?

[Fulkth]

So true. It's hard to remember the name of a gas station from 7 years ago!

[Ireland]

It's also a gas station! XD Not that special. :3

[Tohopekaliga]

A gas station with a cult following of some sort.

[Ireland]

People fall in love with strangest things. :3

Though I can't really talk, I probably love MST3k way too much.

[Tohopekaliga]

MST3K is something worthy of love, though. Wawa is...a gas station.

[trystan830]

and a convenience store - with decent food, too!

[Gallagher]

I like it cuz it's next to the Four Seasons.

[Espy]

I have literally never heard of any of these gas station place things.

[Tohopekaliga]

Gas stations are kind of boring, really. Forgettable. :P

[Tas]

gas stations are pretty boring.

7-Eleven has a cult following and it's "just a convenience store" too.
