But, memorial day's not a day of buying things. It's a day of going to the cemetery with family to put flowers on the graves of loved ones, even if it means growing the flowers yourself and driving two hours. It's a day of getting out the photographs too precious to keep in the open. It's a day where even distant relatives gather, and you share stories of the departed and ponder your own mortality.
I have exactly one relative (that I know of) who was in the military, and it didn't kill him (although he was a PoW for some time). That would be the chain smoking.

it's also a day of "Good evening Goodwill shoppers, today is our memorial day sale. All Blue, Green, Pink and Yellow tag items and furniture are fifty percent off. Once again, all Blue, Green, Pink and Yellow tag items and furniture are fifty percent off.Thank you for shopping at your local, neighborhood Goodwill, where Together, We Prepare People For Work™"

I know Memorial Day's intended focus is on those dead in the military, but that's more how Veterans Day is generally seen here, while today is about remembering the dead in general, and I guess we don't really set a day apart to remember veterans.

Transit tip: Please don't be that person who gets on the bus talking on their cell phone and doesn't even have their cash handy to pay the fare and they just stand there digging through their purse and then they find out they've only got one dollar bill and start literally begging for another and yeah this sentence kinda drifted from general advice to me venting about a specific incident

Pff, as if. The Aliroz I know would never be so rude and unprepared.
