Christ! I LOVE Black Friday carnage!

I really do. I love watching these YouTube videos that people are posting of these maniacs fighting over Rachael Ray cookware and generic LCD televisions!

This is such a guilty pleasure... I wish every Friday was Black Friday sometimes...

The best videos are getting re-uploaded by other YouTubers trying to snag views to get ad revenue by trying to outdo each other with increasingly salacious headlines.

Can you believe this?! LOLOL...

If you look at their coverage, it's all racist nonsense and prattle.

I just like the spectacle of it all! What's wrong with that?

32" boxy old thing. Don't see a reason to get a flat screen. And I'm to lazy to get a new one. This one works fine with a little decoder box that doesn't need cable.

1995 BMW 525 that I bought new. Still runs great. Cost plenty at the time, but I've gotten my money's worth.

After Hurricane Sandy I had to throw out many "Family Treasures" that had been flooded. Among them: 8MM camera and projector, Super 8 camera and projector, short-wave radio, crystal radio I built from a kit, Citizen's Band Radio I built from a kit...

And the winner is... An 8-Track Player that I installed in my first car, a 1962 VW Ragtop with a crushed front end that I fixed in my spare time.

BTW: I have secret. I told my wife that I threw that stuff out, but I boxed most of it and have them hidden in the attic. Completely ruined, but after cleaning them up they still make nice curios.

You shoppers don't know what you are doing. The aisles of Wal-Mart will be drenched in blood, and God only knows how it will end. It is all folly, madness, a crime against civilization! You people speak so lightly of shopping; you don't know what you're talking about. Black Friday is a terrible thing!

People are being injured in their own displays of unbridled disregard of common decency; and this OP is cheering it on in some twisted logic that they 'deserve' what they get.

This is not the first OP of it's sort in the past 24 hours...

Isn't that lovely.


It's kind of creepy and doesn't make them any better than the fools that are fighting.
