It was supposed to be a snack run.
Just a chill Tuesday night.
Carly and Josh had shared half an edible each (the size of a contact lens but with the power of the Snap), then decided they desperately needed Flaming Hot Cheetos, a blue raspberry Slurpee, and “maybe something chocolatey but crunchy… but also chewy? Like a Twix that went to therapy.”
The nearest 7-Eleven became their pilgrimage site.
What they didn’t know was that they were about to leave… engaged.
💍 The Meet-Cute (But Already Dating)
They stumbled through the automatic doors with the energy of two Sims on free will mode. Josh made a beeline to the hot dog roller like it owed him money. Carly got distracted by the sunglasses rack, trying them on and whispering, “I’m a hot auntie now” to no one in particular.
Then it happened.
Josh, stoned enough to believe he was starring in The Notebook but set inside a convenience store, wandered into the candy aisle and saw it. The Ring Pop. Cherry. Glowing like Excalibur.
He turned to Carly — who had just mistaken a stack of paper towels for a mini-fridge — and said:
“If you say yes, I’ll never microwave leftover pasta without asking first.”
Her eyes filled with tears (or possibly Slurpee brain freeze).
“Put it on me, Shrek.”
🛒 Enter: Store Clerk / Wedding Officiant / Possible Time Traveler
This is where fate steps in wearing a name tag that says Tyrell.
Tyrell had been working at that 7-Eleven for 11 years, 7 months, and 2 failed mixtapes. He had seen things.
People cry over lotto tickets. People flirt with taquitos.
But never love. Until now.
Tyrell was not a licensed officiant. He did, however, own a neck tattoo of Yoda in a judge’s robe, and in his words:
“That counts emotionally.”
He cleared his throat over the store PA:
“Attention shoppers. We’re gathered here today in the aisle of snacks and life decisions…”
💒 The Vows (as remembered by Slurpee stains on the receipt)
Josh: “Carly, you are the Sour Patch to my inner child. First sour, then sweet, then a little confusing but like, in a hot way.”
Carly: “Josh, you are the Dorito dust on my fingertips — always here, even when you shouldn’t be.”
She tried to put the Ring Pop on his finger but dropped it. Josh ate it anyway.
They kissed. Tyrell cried.
A man in flip-flops by the beef jerky clapped once. A microwave beeped in approval.
🎉 The Reception: Sponsored by Sugar and Regret
They celebrated by buying $47 worth of random snacks, a banana for balance, and an $8.99 Bluetooth speaker that played Drunk in Love on repeat until it melted in the sun the next morning.
Back at home, they tried to print their wedding photo using a Polaroid but accidentally took 19 blurry selfies of their toes.
They framed one anyway.

💡 The Takeaway (Because This Is a Blog and SEO Needs Structure)
So what can we learn from this totally real, not-made-up-because-we-got-too-high love story?
-
Weed doesn’t ruin relationships. It turns snack runs into sacred bonds.
-
Love isn’t about the perfect venue. Sometimes, it’s about a half-lit aisle and a Ring Pop that melts halfway through your vows.
-
And always remember: if someone offers to marry you in 7-Eleven… say yes. Especially if they brought napkins.
Okay, fine — this love story might not be entirely real (unless your cousin Chad and his girlfriend Becky just had a very confusing Tuesday night). But in a world full of bad Tinder dates and lukewarm leftovers, we think a weed-fueled 7-Eleven wedding sounds kind of perfect. At the very least, it’s the kind of story you’d tell at your real wedding… or in court. Either way, we’re here for it.
Stay high, stay hydrated, and if you see Tyrell — give him our love.
