Donald Trump Honors The Brave Americans Who Perished In 7-Eleven

Donald Trump Honors The Brave Americans Who Perished In 7-Eleven

Last week, presidential candidate Donald Trump gave a touching tribute to the courageous men and women who lost their lives in the fight against terrorism as employees at 7-Eleven. “I was down there,” Trump remarks, referring to being in New York at the time of the deadly attacks, “and I watch our police and our firemen on 7-Eleven down at the World Trade Center right after it came down.”

He refers to them as “the greatest people [he] has ever seen in action”; an apt remark, as those guys seem to always have plenty of pepperoni sticks in times of great need. Not to mention their 50th Anniversary Bring Your Own Cup Day, where patriotic Americans across the country could bring virtually any container that can fit underneath the Slurpee dispenser and fill it for a mere $1.50.

We don’t forgive, we don’t forget: Thank Heaven for 7-Eleven.

In February of 2013, a 7-Eleven in Phoenix, AZ, burned to the ground after the owner reported “popping noises” coming from the ceiling. What he was hearing was, no doubt, a ticking time bomb planted by Osama Bin Laden himself. By the grace of God, there were no causalities; however, a spokesman for the Phoenix Fire Department stated that, sadly, “the building cannot be salvaged.”

Only last week, a 7-Eleven store in South Abilene, TX, had $45 stolen in a stick-up robbery. Again, thankfully, there were no causalities. Whether or not the robber was associated with a terrorist organization remains unknown; however, if Mr. Trump becomes president, all sane Americans the robber should be very afraid.In Trump's own words, America needs to amp up our torture methods as we are currently “under siege,” and that the enemy “thinks we’re so stupid, you have no idea." It would be highly advisable for this ruffian, whoever he is, to relinquish his $45 and classified terrorist information before Trump has no choice but to waterboard him with a Slurpee... or "a hell of a lot worse than waterboarding" (maybe forcefeeding the poor soul with a 7-Eleven hot dog).

The most egregious event of all involves a young man falling outside of an unknown 7-Eleven and spilling his Slurpee, screaming an expletive in terror.

The Middle East as a whole is desperately trying to cover up the details, but the six-second video clearly shows the man in question being sniped at long range. There is no doubt that Mr. Trump, on the first day of his presidency, will make sure this wronged fellow gets justice; perhaps in the form of a free pizza slice or a coupon.

Trump’s undying love for this great country was made very clear in his statement about these patriotic convenience stores. The hardworking Americans of 7-Eleven serve their country well, fighting terrorism while bravely fulfilling civilian cravings for $1 taquitos. 7-Eleven represents true American values: let’s join together with President Trump and make America great again... one Slurpee at a time.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
