An obscenely large soda from 7-eleven. The cups in the image aren't Big Gulps technically, but they are very large drink containers, and OP is using the term Big Gulp loosely

A very large enclosed cup to hold liquids.

I was hoping it was going to be this video.

It’s not just bad, it’s Fort Wayne bad.

Which word is giving you trouble? Gulp or Big?

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 6 points 5 days ago (1 children)

the fact that whatever the fuck is in the picture looks nothing like a drink would look in a normal country, you smug dick.

Normally it's just a large plastic cup but I think these are the reusable ones they sell some places? They don't really look the right size or design but I'm not an expert.

So the gas station chain sells you these bottles and then then you can also pay for a refill later as much as you want.

I've never seen the point and I'm straight up addicted to caffeine, the regular cups used to be cheap.
