People romanticizing Black Friday

[FalconeFanClub]

I totally understand the sentiment going around social media that Black Friday isn’t the same anymore. Mall culture is effectively dead and you don’t need to wait outside at 4am to get shit on sale. It was apart of some peoples routines every year and they made an event out of it.

As someone that never did it, I’m glad it’s dead. Have you walked around a mall or department store lately? It’s fucking depressing. It’s either the cheapest shit you could ever imagine or things that are incredibly expensive that I have to imagine international students (Chinese, Middle East) buy as an afterthought.

I don’t know where I was going with this diatribe. I was probably going to complain about poor people missing waiting in the cold at 4am for a sale on a tv that’ll be cheaper next year anyway.

They should just call it what it truly is, Nigger Friday

The death of in-store Black Friday is perhaps the only good thing to come from Covid. I went a few times with family pre-pandemic and it was awful with the crowds and lines. With online shopping, I can use CamelCamelCamel to see if the markdown is actually a deal.

I never stood in line early for a store opening but I do miss busy malls all decorated for Christmas.

They don't stand in line, they just cut the whites and smash the windows out to start looting

Is this Reddit-posting?

I sat in the Target parking lot playing Bulls on Parade for 25 mins to get myself pumped up enough to go in and buy the kid a gift

I worked at a mall for a few sad years, way back in the day, during The Before. It sucked, and the "holiday season" was the worst part. The whole place decorated for Christmas the day after Halloween. The months of Christmas music being piped in everywhere you went. The fat retards and bitter old crones lining up at the door at 7AM the morning after Thanksgiving, just so they could be first. Working til 7PM on Xmas Eve, then coming back on the 26th, with the greedy slobs returning the gifts someone gave them the day before. It made me hate everything. Fuck malls. I don't miss malls at all.

I much prefer White Friday, myself.

It's kind of funny to see people post wistfully about malls that closed and they'll always dance around the real reason people stopped going and stores left (niggers).

I bought a tv over 10 years ago on Black Friday for like $100 that still works. I use it as a computer monitor and to watch DVDs sometimes.

I once went to a Black Friday sale for something specific, it was a warehouse club store in the Bronx. Wasn't even crowded, because people in the Bronx don't get up early.

Guy on line behind me was buying 3 huge TV's for 300$ off apiece. Said he was going to return them at another store with a liberal return policy for full price. $900 cash for 3-4 hours work.
