Weird. When I lived in the states, there were plenty of convenience stores that weren’t attached to gas stations, and the people I knew talked about getting things “from the convenience store” even when they were getting it from the gas station, but I guess that could be a state thing or a regional thing, or even just a city-by-city thing. I take your point about the lawn mowers etc potentially needing gas though.

Why do you need a gas station in walking distance?

There are high-schoolers alive today (maybe even in this thread) who were born after Apple stopped charging for updates. Maybe it’s time to get some new jokes.
