What Are You Doing Right Now? (149 Viewers)

Plenty, I'm just tired of hanging around the house. If I leave though I'll have to contend with Black Friday traffic. I'm actually thinking about going into work for a couple of hours.

That's weird. I'd expect you to want to spend time with your relatives.

We didn't do that this year. My mom had to work and my sister is out of country so we had the family dinner Wed night. So right now I'm the only person in the house. Doing laundry, trying not to think too much.

What a co-inky-dink, i'm doing laundry too. I guess that makes it alright to leave & go to work. Do you get paid overtime for working during holiday period?

No, I just get paid for whatever hours I bill after the project is complete.

What's Black Friday?

Super post-Thanksgiving sale in the States where stuff is sold dirt cheap. People camp outside the stores from the night before to get the best items.

 

[Byrone]

I'm off for the grand opening. Later tuzzers.

Ah.

This is the first year I've been aware of it.

Stupid creeping Americanisation.

I know people who take vacation to go to the States just for the thrill of the mad rush of Black Friday shopping.

You can get HD TVs for a couple hundred dollars.

Actually, the sales started yesterday around 9:00pm. Retail employees were pissed, there were questions as to whether that practice was consistent with labor laws.

Sounds enormously unappealing.

They don't have a choice about working after ordinary hours?

Sounds enormously unappealing.

Yup.

watch vid and you will see
she's gorgeous, no doubt

Yeah, but KimK has that Armenian problem of constantly needing a daily mow to keep her body hair from taking over.

Didn't win the money. Some bitch in International Programs won instead.

Skin to win, and you only went topless?

Small load you're doing by hand?

The latest in spam email subject lines and the biggest crock of commercial shit going in the U.S. this month.

It's not even accurate. Retailers say it's the biggest shopping day of the year, which is a lie because it's typically the last Saturday before Christmas. And then they come up with these desperate promotions that attract desperate people. Lately, it's gotten to be like the Staples Center in L.A. whenever the Lakers win or lose the NBA championship: people stomping others to death, firing weapons, setting fire to things. Just in today's Cali news:

So retailers are doing everything they can to create a social frenzy, they get people literally committing violence on each other, and then they act like they're not even partly responsible for the problem.

Then what I said is just part of it? I know it's nuts.

I love jasper's most recent Facebook status update, lamenting his horrible food poisoning. Well done, lad.
