Black Friday sales starting the evening of Thanksgiving

I dunno about your family, but at my house, nobody would dare leave the Thanksgiving dinner--the only time besides Christmas when we all get together--to go shopping at 6 PM.

I'd hope other families are the same way.

I did once, and while I found one of the notably crappy Mario series or movies... It might have been Super Mario World, or The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3!, or the Super Mario Bros. film. In any case, I didn't get it because Black Friday, and I was a little sad.

Only as I type this, half-awake, do I realize I could have also gone to Amazon.

As the son of a Target/Starbucks manager and a L&D nurse, this has sort of just been A Thing in our family for a while out of necessity.

I don't like it, but I live with it knowing that it decreases the likelihood of their employers fucking with Christmas (which is more important to me because I'm a spoiled brat).

We started doing this last year, I believe. There was a storm of protest from the employees, but sales were better than expected so of course it'll happen again this year.

I have mixed feelings. I couldn't care less about Thanksgiving dinner so I don't care if I end up working instead. On the other hand, fuck capitalism with a rusty cactus.
