One of the many reasons I don’t leave the house on this day

I realized last night my parents used to do the Black Friday thing in varying degrees every year. Now? When the area is more diverse? They’re almost all online

Not that I want us to do the super consumerist shopping early in the morning or on thanksgiving

I mean have you seen how crazy Blacks get?

I went out for a bit last night and this morning. Got a few cheap games and movies and a free $5.00 giftcaard from Half-Priced Books. I used to really enjoy Black Friday shopping, but this year I found it depressing.

I live in MN, though, so at least it is safe.

My local thrift store is giving away all of its clothes and things free. Great Black Friday.

They probably have so much unsellable inventory that they would rather give away than pay for the trash collector to pick up.

The average age of a person in Maine is 44, though, so you find old things of good quality in this thrift Store.

Tbh Thrift stores sound like a solid option on Black Friday.

Yeah as people sell their old stuff in order to get cash for holiday gifts

That video is rather short, and the word "vine" implies some sort of plant, doesn't it? If it were one minute long and had a proper beginning and end, it would be quite the chuckle!

Nah, it's from the (now defunct) site "Vine," which was kind of the forerunner of TikTok 🙂

Oh, okay. I thought you didn't know what it was, lol. Yeah... 😔

Good morning all

How is everyone today?

Good thanks. Looking into the Elks lodge, looks like /our guys/ to be honest

Huh. Cool 😎

I am wonderful this afternoon, Isabella. How are you?

@Isabella Locke-MT Morning! Just another day on the wage plantation...

I'm pretty good.

Might participate in the Black Friday

I encourage it, as long as you don't live around people who behave like a herd of cows.

I'm just going to go to Once Upon a Child and see what they have, maybe get some cheap stuff for my son

Make sure to get him an iPhone, I hear kids are getting them younger and younger! /joke

I love Once Upon A child. We have one here in NY. @Isabella Locke-MT

Show us what you get him, if you do! It's smart of you to do that and not get a 69 inch 4k TV with HDR.

I love it too, Anam. I got him some clothes from there and a Baby K'tan for a great price

My oldest daughters name Isabella. Lovely name. Did you know it derived from the name Elizabeth? I was initially going to name her Elizabeth
