Black Friday...


Happy Thanksgiving Holiday to all! 

So this morning, my bro-in-law, future bro-in-law, and I all jumped in the truck at 3:30am and headed down to join the masses for some Black Friday madness! Black Friday is always more bust than boom with deals that are way over-hyped and not worth the loss of sleep. However, we seem to go back year, after year, after year...mostly to people watch and witness how crazy and irate people can get over a flat-screen, or digital camera!

We started out at Circuit City and posted up in the line at 4 something am. When the doors opened, there were a bunch of chuds that decided to try and bum rush the door. We didn't care so much, but there were definitely some fools that were upset about these poachers. Once in, it became pretty apparent why Circuit City has gone bankrupt, the deals sucked and everything that was on sale was either older stuff or made by companies I had never heard of! The ads didn't even match the prices on the shelves, everything seemed to be actually priced more than what the ads displayed. Circuit City = BUNK

We then moved on to Best Buy where we found a few better deals, but still nothing to jump up and down about. The main highlight was Falko going to the restroom where the man who ate 12 bean burritos the night before was unloading. Falko described it as "grunts" and "farting noises" and was "throwing up in my mouth." It was pretty awesome. Best Buy = Slightly OK...but still BUNK

Our final main Black Friday destination was the Target. Target started out nice, as a guy in the bathroom decided to ignore the one urinal spacing rule and start peeing directly next to me with his hands rested on his head while yelling out the most obnoxious sigh of relief. Homeboy must have been holding this one since 3:30am when his WT wife dragged him out of bed to roll down to Target! Target sucked for the sheer fact that there a million and one people there, half of them in a line for checkout that snaked through the entire store to the back. Target = Overloaded BUNK

From today's scenes, you would never suspect that we are going through the great depression II. However, I'm sure the bottom lines of these stores will be way below average years. All in all, another Black Friday, another night of lost sleep, another year of disappointing deals.

I did pick up a ski-mask though at the local sporting goods store, just in case times get really tough, and I need to boost a 7-11, ha! Just kidding.
