Black Friday

It's almost that very special day of year again, the day that everybody recognizes no matter what race or religion they may be - Black Friday. It's become a sort of holiday in recent years. I personally, (along with 90% of the other things i write about) hate it. Last year was the first time I ever went Black Friday shopping, and at 4 in the morning. Needless to say, the only things I bought were things that I could've purchased on any other day. The 'sales' are on things that people rarely buy because they're extremely expensive. On Black Friday, those "extremely expensive" things go down to "super expensive". $500 dollars is still a lot to spend, even on a huge TV. Of course it's a good deal, but you're still spending $500 you could've spent on something else, like let's say a treadmill (since you're spending so much on something you're gonna sit in front of for hours, you most likely need a treadmill). The stupid people of this country are hypnotized into thinking they NEED this stuff just because it's marked down. The real winners come out in the wee hours of this wonderful day, it's quite a sight to see. Shopping on Black Friday made me feel like I was just part of the crowd of barbarians. I mean, two or some-odd years ago someone was trampled and killed in Wal-Mart's midnight opening. That is disgusting. "Come on family, let's trample this innocent employee so we can get to the TV's, which we can watch while having inbred sex"is what I picture a family to be like if they are willing to trample a man to get to good sales. Can people not see how they are just conforming to corporate America's schemes to draw money out of their pockets? They're too stupid to realize it! It's like watching a zombie movie. People fight over the last item. Why? Why lose every shred of your dignity to get a DVD player for half off? Well I suppose they already lost all of that dignity -- the second they left to go Black Friday shopping.
