I have no idea who that is.

You should add the Mark Dice tag.

... wow.

I still think Black Friday is a criminal act, however.

I tend to agree. Where I lived we had a referendum a few years ago on extended shopping hours and I voted No on the ballot. The less people have to work unsociable hours, the better (I'm currently a shift worker myself).

I guess this is a 5 star video if you look at it for the perspective of an orderly group of people wanting to give less money to corporations and more to their savings account being yelled at by a lunatic that thinks their time would be better spent obsessing over the illuminati.

I've worked Black Fridays (and worse, actually- Maxwell Street Days in Madison Wisconsin is literally hell to work) and have worked more Christmases and Thanksgivings in my 31 years on this earth than I have not. I've never gone to one of these things because at this point I'm scared shitless of standing in ANY line, but hey- there's this particular bike I want at the low low price of ,999 and if there was a sale where it was 0, you bet your frozen ass I'd be in that number. If people desire something, they deserve to purchase it. If it's at a lower cost, then more power. The employees may be pissed off that they have to work, but this crowd in particular seemed incredibly cordial.

So.. ten stars to everyone working graveyard, black friday, cyber monday, whateverthefuck.. zero stars to the fuckwad yellin' at the "sheeple." I hope you never breed, because then you'll understand what saving on some new "Chinese-made toys" your seven, ten, and 13 year old kids want for Christmas really means.

Oh come on, they're not buying food here, they're buying blinking plastic bullshit to go onto Facebook and gloat over. They will do this while willing to fuck over everyone around them to get it. They deserve way more ridicule than this, which is why trampling vids are so satisfying.

Fuckin consumerist pigs with their Twitter machines and iThings. I'm angry at something!

It's like the running of the bulls in Spain. It's worth a few goreings for the celebration and the spectacle.

This is portal of evil though. We're looking at this as some banal evil here, a lunatic raving at people minding their own business. Reddit might preach, but I'm here five starring cause I love idiot blowhards making fools of themselves while blithely convinced their pious or doing something IMPORTANT

Yeah, this is pretty reprehensible. As bad as Black Friday can be, what Mr Dice is doing here is just asinine - people go to Black Friday sales to *save* money, so why he is criticizing people for "spending money they don't have" is beyond me. Maybe Mr Dice is advocating a strict No-Presents Christmas? I think it's more likely that Mr Dice is simply trying to be an asshole, and falls back on whatever self-righteous stock slogan sounds like it could fit.

Another thing that strikes me about this are the lines to WATCH the lines. Really? Is that a thing now? On-sight atrocity tourism? I mean, what's worse: lining up in the dead of night to buy crap at a discount, or lining up in the dead of night to snigger at people lining up to buy crap at a discount? As soon as someone finds a way to monetize demand for the "Gawking At Black Friday Shoppers" industry, our society will be complete.


(I'm thinking parking lot food carts and t-shirts with really condescending anti-consumer catchphrases on them. Maybe even rent out some sealed, transparent booths in the mall for rubberneckers who want to get a front-row look at the carnage)

I made my post while drunk and angry because my family lives on the other side of the country and I didn't get to spend Thanksgiving with them :(
