Seriously? OMG! WTF?

Do you like to take a bite out of something to discover its mysterious flavor? Then 7-Eleven has a present for you during the month of April. They are bringing back the limited-edition April Fools’ Month Mystery Donut.

“Every April, we like to add a little mischief to our bakery offerings with the Mystery Donut as an unexpected twist that’s all about surprising our customers in the spirit of April Fool’s Day,” said Brandon Brown, Senior Vice President, Fresh Foods at 7-Eleven, Inc. “It may seem like a prank, but it’s no joke! This mystery donut is hitting stores, offering a fun and unexpected treat to shake up your day!”

I don’t know about you, but I can’t wait to guess what the mystery flavor is. I hope it is something yummy and not something gross.

I also think if the world’s largest convenience retailer were smart, they would also add a mysterious flavor Slurpee to the mix. Aren’t Slurpees more popular than their donuts?

A lot of people spent January not drinking drinks that are only for those over 21+, and the month seemed like it went on forever. Since they remained alcohol-free, they can celebrate their accomplishment by drinking a free small Slurpee from 7-Eleven today.

And you don’t have to be over 21 to celebrate. Because everyone feels like January is the longest month of the year.

“We know that every year, the long days of January can feel like the month will never come to an end – and this year has been no different,” says Dennis Phelps, Senior Vice President, Merchandising (Vault & Proprietary Beverages). “We’re giving our customers a sweet and refreshing surprise because whether you’re in the mood to grab a Slurpee drink or another fan-favorite product, 7-Eleven is here to help add a little joy to everyone’s day and shift your vibe for the rest of the year.”

I don’t know about you, but I am going to seven 7-Elevens to get a full Slurpee today. At least it will bring me two days of happiness until Punxsutawney Phil spoils my joy by telling me we are going to get six more weeks of winter.

Josh doesn’t get this excited about just any product he puts on the shelves. Stock up on as many sweets as you can fit under your detective cap before going to see POKÉMON Detective Pikachu on May 10. #DetectivePikachu pic.twitter.com/E8AnnMhYwo

Josh Sussman or Glee’s JewFro, as he is better known as, was seen working at 7-Eleven, so has the actor hit hard times? Far from it. He is working for the store, but he is doing commercials for them like the one above. What is Lea Michele doing? Besides her new husband?

For 30 years, Hank Azaria has been doing more voices than anyone can count on The Simpsons and yesterday he revealed where some of them came from on The Howard Stern Show.

He told the Shock Jock that Moe the Bartender came from him doing a bad Al Pacino impression during a play with some gravelly Red the Bartender added in. Chief Wiggum is a “weird Edward G. Robinson” from the Film Noir cop days. Apu is a combination of kids he grew up with from India and the man he knew who worked the 7-Eleven near him in Los Angeles. Snake is someone he knew from college who really enjoyed his drugs. Comic Book Guy also came from his college days, he was his next door neighbor from Freshman year. Finally, Lou the Cop is a bad Sylvester Stallone impression.

Will we get any new voices from him? He said, “I think I have done every voice that I can possibly do. Every sound that I can make as a human being has been used.” Even though he says that, I am sure he will find a way.

The Simpsons celebrates it 30th Anniversary, of the first time they appeared on The Tracey Ullmam Show, later this month
