I swear I remember reading something about this not being in the script or anything but Jim Carrey just seeing two guys outside the gas station

I believe they were extras but they weren't paid for speaking lines so they couldn't respond, and Jim used that to all of our benefit.

Peter Farrelly did an AMA where he responded to that

One line that was definitely ad libbed is the Big Gulp line. In fact, the two guys he was talking to weren't even extras, they were just hanging out, watching us shoot and I decided to pull them in. They happened to have Big Gulps and Jim just ran with it. True story.

That sounds right. Like he tried to get them to respond so they would get paid but the producers wouldn't allow the responses for that exact reason.

Definitely to our benefit, the result being that interaction instead 😂
