It's the most wonderful time of the year!

Are any of you going out into the black Friday crowds? Anything in particular in mind you're shopping for?

Sigma: black friday is the day after Thanksgiving ( a day we ironically give thanks for the things we have ), where we rush out to buy new and better stuff.

You could not pay me enough money to venture out into that madhouse. That Friday is, and always shall be, Digestion Day.

Isn't it Black Thursday now? What happened to Thanksgiving?

Didn't you see my post? http://descentbb.net/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=20936

I'm going to build a new computer if the hardware I've got my eye on drops low enough in the online Black Friday sales. Plenty of cheap-sh** electronics on sale everywhere, but whether they'll give up the good stuff or not remains to be seen.

Yeah I saw it. It was just a bunch of blithering turkeys.

I was talking about all the stores and businesses OPENING AND STAYING OPEN ALL THROUGH THANKSGIVING.

Black Friday is a sucker job. The real savings happen as you get closer to Christmas and businesses start panicking trying to get their sales figures up for the year.

No…actually it would be right AFTER Christmas.

At least around here.

Black Friday is for people who think it's Halloween for their credit cards!

Black Friday is for morons that need to get a life, who go out the night before and sleep out on the ground in the dark waiting for sales that aren't worth sleeping on the ground outside in the dark.

Oh and there's this:

On that vein, have you been watching South Park? The last 2 episodes have been dealing with this very theme. Can't wait to see what happens in the last episode on Wednesday.

Question. How long will it be before Christmas Day itself becomes a Black Friday?
