Leave no kid hungry, mate
Your honor I didn't mean that! I was just trying to fill up some kids mouths and bellies... Wait... Nooo! Damnit, not like that!
I went to Colorado Springs a little while ago and had to do a double take when I saw that a gas station was advertising that as its name. Absolutely blew my mind when I realized it is a huge chain there.
blew your what m8
Yep all over here and most of CO in general. I've seen a few in Arkansas as well.
They started in 1959, and are from Iowa. K&G is okay, but Maverick is far better in every way.
Oh not even close. Maverick is a little cleaner but have nowhere as much stuff and their food, while having more selection, is garbage.
I’m probably biased because I worked in Utah long before they ever came to Colorado and I’ve been to most of their “flagship” stores. If there’s a choice I’ll pick Maverick every time.
Also, I was pretty sure I was going to be jumped by a mob because I wore a K&G hat to a restaurant in OCC in the early-mid 2000s. The anti-Kum&Go sentiment was insane back then.
Jeez, people will tribalize anything. Yeah the Mavericks around here are big but all the shelves are way spaced out and at angles so it fills the room but there's just not much there. My ex worked at one for a bit preparing food and it was just terrible. I used to Door dash and I would stop at K&G multiple times a day and sometimes get food and it was always pretty good for gas station food. That said, Maverick bought K&G not long ago so they might all be Mavericks before too long.
People who name gas stations are different from you and I. There's one in L'Anse Michigan called Dick's Pump and Munch
The ol' sperm n split
Ejaculate n Evacuate
Pump n Dump
Sploosh 'n Skadoosh
Kuma, Kuma, Kuma, Kuma, Kuma Kumeleon
You kum and go, you kum and go
Kum & Go is such a dirty name.
I love seeing Kum & Go on social media because no matter what the discussion always turns to the name. I live in Colorado and they are everywhere around here. But they are probably the nicest gas stations we have here. We also have Loaf n Jug which isn't dirty but just makes me giggle.
Loaf n Jug is pretty funny! Also I love learning about grocery and convenience stores so I'm psyched they have wiki article. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loaf_%27N_Jug
Where I live we have a ton of hilarious Pho places and of course the best one is Pho-King, pronounced Fucking.
Lol, we have a pho-nomenal
Love it.
Good name for a whore house.
Same i just pronounce it as c*m and go
It's a gas station. Do you expect them to be selling filet mignon and lobster thermador?
The two week old ceremonial fruit by the register is also a option.
does anyone even know what a thermador is
The lobster is removed from the shell, cooked in a wine and butter sauce, then stuffed back into the shell and browned in the oven. Often cheese is melted over the top.

The charity navigator ratings for the organization that runs the no kid hungry campaign don't look terrible
What's the deal with the up to 43k?
The people who wanted to divert money to charity had to negotiate with the people who didn’t, and there was a meeting where they said their fear was if it went too far and cost them too much.
The 25¢ is probably more than their profit on the thing, so they’re probably hoping to spend money and gain long-term customers.
This just seems kind of nice. Why does it infuriate you?
this question pisses me off
Can you say why?
(no)
