| 40. | Black Friday | ||
|
The craziest day for people in the retail industry. Traditionally stores have a huge sale the day after Thanksgiving where they open their stores at five in the f*****g morning, and people line up outside the store doors to the end of the country for some sort of savings. People have actually been killed on Black Friday... how f****d up is that? It's just another one of the embarrassments of the human race. Consumers have a love/hate relationship with it, people, who work in stores hate it, and corporate owners of store franchises love it because their yearly profits go up. Black Friday got it's name because the stores profits go from being in the "red zone" to the "black zone." This day and the Christmas season (month of December) is used to make up for the 11 months of lost sales. Executive: "Sir our Black Friday sales for Walmart are at an all time high this year."
Walmart President: "Good, good. Yes I see those morons on the television killing each other to buy their Tickle-Me-Elmo dolls. Our plans to run out small business and rule the world are beginning to succeed. Gentlemen! Let us raise our glasses in a toast to evil." :) |

The day after Thanksgiving in the U.S. It's traditionally the busiest shopping day of the year (and sometimes considered to be the beginning of the Christmas season). A.K.A.: Green Friday "I'm holding out on buying my Christmas gifts this year until black friday rolls around, so I can get the best deals."

The name for the day after Thanksgiving. It is named this way because it is supposed to be the day where companies move from deficits to profits for the year, i.e. in a checkbook, going from the red to the black. Store Executive: We'll have a ton of Black Friday sales to help our company make up for lackluster sales these past 11 months.

should be renamed "black eye friday" due to the fact that thousands of americans forget the spirit of the holiday season by trampling ppl and giving black eyes while buyin stupid gifts that you didnt even mean to buy from stores who purposely hold sales the same day as everybody else.
yet another example of how greedy americans are. a word of advice: there is this wonderous object called a "computer" and an even more wonderful thing called "the internet". you can do all of your holiday shopping online and the best thing is is that if you order over 100$, shippings free! follow these tips and you will save yourself a pint of blood on each black friday.

The Friday following Thanksgiving. Stores have incredibly low prices for a few hours inciting mass hysteria, death, car crashes, and lost children so you can get 8 DVD players for the price of 3. Joe: Wanna go check out Target tomorrow?
Zach: No way, man, it's Black Friday. |

A holy day of obligation in the Church of the Almighty Dollar. Don't believe that BS about black friday being named after accountants' black ink. (wtf?) The love of money is the root of all evil. Black symbolizes evil, the true reason for the name.
