@carl669 Is that you wondering how you will get that inside the 7-11?
@ELUNO easy. call the kool-aid man to ram a hole in the wall.
@carl669 If you weren’t so fucking lazy! (+1 fuck)
@carl669 Why not just drink out of him?!?!
@ELUNO kool-aid man is liquid. slurpees are transmorphic.
@carl669 You can fill him in first!
@carl669 WtH is transmorphic?
@GLaDOS it’s a word i made up, but i feel it works quite well in the given context.
This is awesome news!
@mfladd oh dear God. I thought a 5g bucket would be ridiculous…
@RiotDemon
Good thing I am not epileptic, or those two gifs together would be giving me seizures.
Just don’t be these guys please!
@ELUNO I hope that was a new toilet…
@RiotDemon Looks like a rear discharge toilet - not all that common in homes – so I’m guessing it was removed from the restroom there.
@RiotDemon Even if it is “new” who knows what happens to it before it reaches the store! Maybe they do some “quality testing” with it!
@narfcake Not enough bleach for me to ever drink out of a used bowl.
@RiotDemon lol. Not even for lifetime free Slurpee?!?
/giphy That’s nasty!
You people need to chill. You will do much worse after a Zombie Apocalypse. You will be wishing for Slurpee’s out of toilet bowl.
@mfladd
In a funny coincidence, it’s been exactly 100 years since Elliott Joslin, MD published his seminal work, “The Treatment of Diabetes Mellitus.”

Cup must fit upright through a 10 inch hole.
/giphy 10 inch hole
@medz Yes, but based on the many pictures you can find, you might get away with something bigger. YMMV I guess it depends on the store manager. Obviously a kiddie pool will most likely get yourself turned away.
@medz Before or after? A pouch can fit through a 10" hole empty but it’ll be a lot larger afterwards.
@narfcake Good point. I assume before. Get one of those camel back things and fill it to the brim. Or perhaps a water-tight satchel of some kind?
/giphy satchel for drinks
@medz Now that is a great idea! I will fill my backyard with Slurpee!
SIZE MATTERS
CUP MUST FIT UPRIGHT THROUGH A 10" HOLE
@Ignorant ummm @medz already said that dummy.
@Ignorant Yeah, you tell 'em!
@Ignorant that’s what she said
The toilet bowl is wrong on every level.
@Mehnj
Even if you set it at floor level?
@Mehnj But where would we be as a society without it?!?!
@salaosantiago In the outhouse
This would be a perfect use for your amazing insulated Bubba bottles!
@ELUNO might as well just use a slurpee cup
@RiotDemon But it might melt too fast!
@ELUNO but they don’t hold as much as the big cup!
@RiotDemon
bottles on the side
for only 1.50
into the 100 Bubba
bottles we for sure already have thanks to Meh(.com)
Step 1: Bring kiddie pool and Bubba
Step 2: Fill kiddie pool with Slurpee
Step 3: After leaving store, transfer Slurpee
Step 4: ???
Step 5: PROFIT!

Basically get one of these:
Edit: Or a really long piece of 10" PVC pipe with the ends capped off and a hole drilled in the “top” for filling and drinking. You could make it REALLY long with twists and turns and just pass it through the 10" hole. (or pass the hole over it)
@medz well this blows the toilet bowl and kid pool out of the water.
@medz Just a FYI, 10" C900 PVC pipe weighs about 10 pounds per foot. And no, it’s not going to be all that flexible.
@narfcake No, not bend the PVC! I know large PVC pipes don’t bend like that. I’m saying pass each part through at a time… So if your PVC “cup” is in the shape of a square (with a gap on one side, of course), you’d feed one side through the hole, pivot, feed the 2nd side through, pivot, slide, and pivot until you pass the entire length of the pipe through. Might have to go smaller than 10" pipe if the 90 degree angle fittings are thicker than 10".
Edit: and how heavy is a toilet compared to 10" PVC? This isn’t about practicality!
@medz btw, 10" pvc is fucking expensive. Unless I had some sitting in my garage, I would not attempt. Also, fittings add about 3/4-1" extra. And the inside diameter is 10", so probably need to go with 8"

but with slurpies
@RiotDemon Take your rain gutters down and use them. Boom.
@medz A $30 toilet bowl from Home Depot lists a weight of 41.4 pounds.
@RiotDemon You are killing our Slurpee
dreams with your reality! First my toilet and now this!
@narfcake We should do a Slurpee Toilet flash mob at 7-11.
@RiotDemon @medz @narfcake @eluno
Don’t be greedy. A 10’ length of 4"dia solid drain pipe is about $10 @ Lowe’s and would hold about 6.5gal. Might be a little awkward to carry, tho
/giphy awkward to carry
@compunaut if we get the flexible pipe for drainage, we can wear them as a scarf?
@RiotDemon Please tell me I can be this cool.
@RiotDemon If you got a really big neck
/giphy really big neck
Been there, done that.
I expect pics of everyone’s slushy booty!
You thought I was going to post this Booty, didn’t you?
(yup, I still did)
@mfladd
/giphy schwing ?
Apparently I missed Slurpee Canada day.
Bummer, eh?
@curtise I think around February it was also BYOC over in the US, but they are celebrating it again because of Slurpee’s 50th anniversary. Maybe they will repeat it in Canada as well!
Every year on 7 /11 they do free slurpee day and give out small slurpees every year I try it again and get reminded that sip one is tasty and sip 2 is ok but sip 3 onward is awful and never mannage to finish the small slurpee
@CaptAmehrican Have you tried eating it instead of sipping it? It’s more manageable that way!
@CaptAmehrican cheap tequila.
@Pantheist I wonder if the local 7/11 has pineapple slurpee? I could pour some coconut rum in there.
@PocketBrain That’s not a bad idea…
I bought two of these last month so I can get a half gallon of Slurpee for the refill price every day, suckers.
@sammydog01 wow. Way too much slurpee for me.
@RiotDemon It comes in sugar free too. Yippee!
@sammydog01 But sugar free isn’t fun!
@ELUNO It’s more fun than water.
@sammydog01 You are right, but water is still delicious!
Pic from the last time they did this. It took a trip to the dollar store for easter buckets and two car loads of kids to make sure the boys and their friends were fully diabeetus-ed.
@KittySprinkles OMG, he looks like you. So cute!!!
@mfladd I only know her “pffft” face so I really couldn’t tell.
@KittySprinkles You’re such a good mom!
Somehow I have gone my entire life without living near a 7-11. I have moved several times. I have lived in places that used to have 7-11s but never an actual functioning one.
I have had to make do with assorted Quick Trips, Super Ks,Bigfoots, Handee Marts, Convenient Food Marts, Huck’s,Mac’s,Casey’s and other assorted also rans depending on where I lived.
For some reason there is a Circle K on every block now. I guess that reason is they bought about half of the stores I listed above. Fat lot a good it does me now that they have torn out the phone booths. I know the odds of the phone booth at a local Circle K becoming a time machine were pretty small to begin with. Now that there are no phone booths it pretty much is never going to happen.
@Garfield43 Find the junkyard they took the phone booths to, and fix the antenna with some bubble gum.
I have an empty 2.5 gallon fish tank just begging to be used for something.
This should fit the 10" hole…
@Mehrocco_Mole
/giphy eyebrow raise
@Mehrocco_Mole You can even customize your flavors!

Today is the last day to get your Slurpee on!
