First of all, if you participate in Black Friday, may you die a wretched death being anally raped by a stud horse.
Anyways, I go to Wal-Mart (being the only store open) earlier tonight (about 8:30 pm, and it is now 11:10 pm) so I can buy a basketball game. Was looking for NCAA Basketball 2010 (since it SHOULD be cheaper), but would have been happy with NBA 2K11. No NCAA, but did have NBA. I looked and looked for someone to get it for me, but NO salesman around. So I had to leave, since I had some place to be, and was kind of on a deadline.
A couple hours later (around 10:30 pm), I go back to buy the game. Well, of course, all the dumbass Black Friday shoppers are there, making life miserable for people who should be home with their families. I go to the cabinet where the game should be, and it's gone and I think to myself "Fuck! They probably made this a ticket item". So I go looking for it, locate it, and pick up my copy. Some used up, drugged out ****ish looking lady tells me "we're not supposed to get those yet". I look at her, shrug my shoulders and say "Oh....weeellllllllll...." and then just turn around and leave. I don't owe her an explanation, and unless I have some cocaine on my nose, she probably wouldn't be interested in it.
Anyways, I take my game up to the front check-out lady, a woman who looks as if an IQ in the double digits probably wouldn't happen if you would double her current IQ. She checks me out, and it rings up for $29.99, instead of the $59.99 it should be. Then, I guess since it's not supposed to be $30 until midnight, the computer upgrades the price to the regular $60. The dumbass checkout lady, even when I tell her its probably a ticket item, goes ahead and fixes the price for me.
So, think about the progression here. People wait for HOURS in line to save what amounts to, in the end, a rather paltry sum of money. I whisk in, grab my product, get the discount and leave, all within a 10 minute time frame.
Black Friday dumbasses....but I rule.
