my cornerstore dude is a 65+ year old little woman, she's pretty rad though.

My corner store dude's name is a dude from Georgia (country) named Naz that everyone calls Nazhole because Nazi is too easy and he'll flip a better name on you. He calls everyone cocksuckers, gets in fistfights with code enforcers, and will raise the price of a 6 pack right at the register if it's the last one in stock and he wants it. We're like this, obviously.

I don't even know my corner store dude's name. He's an Indian/Pakistani Super Mario looking dude with a wife too hot for him who works at the store too, but he keeps her pregnant. lulz

My corner store dude can beat up your corner store dude.

My corner store dude has enough kids to beat you up.

Sadly, my corner store was closed this year. It opened in 1979, the year my family moved in down the street. I even worked there stocking shelves when I was in HS. There were a few different CSD's, but the last CSD, his name was Frank. He was cool for a CSD. Had an accent like most CSD's, and was probably foreign. *shrug* Bye CSD.

CSD: Miami.

You people are weird. We never really had "corner stores" here. Where I originally lived there were shops just at the end of the street, though literally about ten houses up from us there was one small shop which was where we went mostly for sweets and comics and stuff. Wasn't on a corner though.

Then, when we moved out to Darndale, which was actually in the process of being built, there were no shops at all. So some enterprising people used to bring vans of produce into the estate, most of which stayed there as sort of static shops. Once the big shopping centre opened across the road though, that was the end of them. I kind of miss the "vans". It used to be commonplace to ask "Is the van still open? "or to say "Hop over to the van there and get some milk would you?"

They're just small, general grocery/liquor shops that aren't necessarily on the corner. They just tend to be there because of higher traffic.

Yeah: reminds me of a soccer-related joke (probably won't get it unless you know British culture but anyway) ---

Why do Pakistanis make such terrible strikers?
Cos every time they get a corner, they build a shop on it!

Told you you wouldn't get it. Monkey knows...
