Tomorrow, all over the country, millions of people will line up outside the doors of retailers, then rush inside like they're in a goddamned track meet and generally act like entitled assholes in a mob mentality. Meanwhile, there will be tons of retail workers who will have to miss a holiday with their family because a bunch of dickheads just HAVE to have that sale RIGHT loving NOW. If you are one of the people who go out shopping on Thanksgiving instead of waiting til Friday, you are a selfish rear end in a top hat. Your presence in that establishment means you are directly responsible for all those workers having to be there working probably a 10-12 hour shift on a major holiday away from their loved ones. Besides, tons of studies have shown that Black Friday (Thursday?)prices generally are not the lowest. Wait until about a week and a half before Christmas for the lowest prices. So if you fall for it, not only are you a selfish, uncaring rear end in a top hat, you're also a gullible idiot.

Yeah I'm sorry I have to take them away from their lovely family to a place where they'll get paid to not have to put up with Uncle Jack drunkenly sharing his opinion on Obongo or your sister breaking down and crying all over the mashed potatoes because her lovely husband left her

What about all the poor losers without family. Without Black Friday they would just sit at home staring at an empty fifth and a loaded revolver wondering if today is the day.

Seriously, these people are just the worst, and no amount of ironic lack of caring about retail employees makes these people any less awful.
