What's up with EXXON?

Pure_Fishtown's picture

What's up with the gas station? The sign that says Exxon has been covered over for weeks; are they not an Exxon station anymore? Not that I go there, the prices is always lots more than the other stations in the area.

BTW, got gas over in Sam's Club in Deptford for $2.41/gallon on Saturday.

look at what you have said. You first said you didn't like something because it was cheesy, then you immediately (though indirectly) admitted you like cheese by saying you went to a tattoo/horror convention.

There is nothing wrong with liking a little cheesiness, I like a lot of cheesy things myself.

But when you are known to like cheesy things it is no longer enough to say you don't like something simply because its cheesy, you need to provide an explanation as to why its cheese is over the line but other cheesy things aren't.

no you chopped it when i was mentioning what someone from florida was saying about the exxon.
regardless you went off topic and are just trying to be insulting. you didn't say cheesy, you said "classy" as if tattoo conventions can't be so. how many tattoo conventions have you been to?
why do i think exxon is cheesy? allow me to give you a more detail essay on that. I feel the color purple is obnoxious, it makes the place an eye sore. horribly rendered paintings of elvis, hendrix, garcia and cobain make me think about cheap photos at a mall kiosk not their contribution to music. Other than the paintings on the outside of the building, what makes it rock n roll on the inside? the inside is a carbon copy of any other gas station/convenience store in the area... maybe cheesy is the wrong word... maybe obnoxious... maybe pointless.

I suppose this tattoo convention was a classy affair with no cheese to be found?
