SpooferJahk: Yep, sadly, and since I work retail I have to work on Black Friday!

Basically for those out of the loop, it is when various retail stores around the U.S. open very early the day the day after Thanksgiving and have a lot of sales on various items and is usually a first come first serve ordeal. On paper that sounds okay, but in execution it causes a lot of customers to fight over items which Black Friday is infamous for. Never been to a store on that day myself but as an employee... it's going to be an experience.
And I worked Black Friday in a mall for five years myself.

It makes sense now. ^^
But it actually sounds very neat. :)
Nintendo 2ds from 129 CAD to 85 flat with no tax seems tempting for me, I been thinking on getting one so maybe the time is now

This actually explains everything you've ever posted.
I was reading an article where it stated Black Friday is diluted with the internet, and people being able to order anything on line and have it delivered rather than go to a brick and mortar, and that it is not the bench mark for corporations that it once was.

What I don't understand is why you'd actually celebrate a market crash off all things.

For the americans under us who particapated in it one way or another: how accurate was South Parks description of it? I'm curious just how horrible it is.

I dont know who it was that mentioned it, but the comparison to The Purge is fitting. xD

Actually I always thought English football fans were a more apt comparison.

I only recently caught up with Jesse's videos, but this one makes me keen to watch more. It also makes me very sad.

spindown: It's a sacred American tradition where you go to Walmart and pepper spray people in the face in order to get a cheap Xbox.
Or a 30$ DVD player.

Some woman got trampled over that one.
