Angry Shopping Day AKA Black Friday 
It must be written… I DISLIKE BLACK FRIDAY!! I realize the amazing deals that everyone can get… I understand the fascination believe me! And, I will admit it.. only briefly though.. that 2 years ago.. I ventured out into the world of Black Friday. I got up in the morning at 3am.. stood outside of Walmart at 3:30.. waiting for them to open their doors. The line was extremely long, and it was freezing cold. Why did I do it? The experience… and a $20 vacuum that I still use to this day.. so it wasn’t a complete loss.. but the people were crazy, and at times.. I was scared for my life.. not really, but for the life of the cabbage patch doll that was almost taken out of my hands by a desperate mother.. NO i didn’t let her have it, I got it first.. okay moving on. Have I gone back to Black Friday in the past 2 years?.. HELL NO! I had to work this year on Black Friday, I’m not sure why, because from what I heard half of Americans were shopping on this day.. HALF! Needless to say, I got zero calls that day, but I did have some time to listen to the local radio stations and I heard something that made me laugh out loud. Think about this… You drive yourself into Best Buy or Circuit City to save $40 on a new monitor, or $100 on a new gadget that has caught your interest, you fight all of the shoppers into the place… you keep from falling down and getting trampled by angry grandparents who need to get in before you! You get yelled at by the lady next to you because your coat brushed against hers. You grab the last box and rush to the long line to pay for your item. You can’t help but smile because you are extremely happy that you just saved yourself some money… and then… you wait for 45 minutes to get through the line, while people bitch and moan that more registers should be open. You walk out to your car, still proud of yourself, and as you are backing out BAM! Your car is hit, you move forward and run into another car…… Think about this… You saved $40 and now have to pay $800 for a fender bender…. Irony? I’m not kidding about this.. I don’t know the percentages, but there are a ton of accidents on Black Friday… PEOPLE ARE CRAZY!! I can’t stand shopping in general when it comes to Christmas.. everyone is so pissed off… Of course being the person that I am, I just have to antagonize everyone, and so if I see someone who is just red faced and ready to explode, and they are mad because the lady at the register is taking too long, or because I can’t find my credit card, so I now have to write a check ( I know, who writes checks?), and they are tapping their foot looking at me… I make sure to stop, smile, and say Happy Holidays 
This always makes them more mad for some reason…. and usually I get a dirty look… What’s wrong with a little holiday greeting? I can’t resist being that way.. COME ON PEOPLE.. Cheer up, or stay the hell home.. that’s what I do 
Okay that’s my take on that.. I feel better now :p
Stay tuned for my next rant…… You think your day was bad….
