I avoid it like the plague. I went once, a few years back with my ex, and it's safe to say that it's something I'll never do ever again. You could offer me a free sandwich, beer and a blowjob to go, and you still would not find me anywhere near a store that day.

To me, the deals are great for the people who want to go nuts for them, but it really brings out the worst in people for material goods. Christmas isn't about who can give someone the biggest or hottest gift of the year. It's about family and being with the people you love and give a shit about. The gifts should be an expression of that, saying "I appreciate you," and not a competition.

Long story short, **** black friday.
