Wife: let's go to the mall to get Christmas shopping done.
mcb: really? You want to deal with the crazies? I don't think so.
Wife: How about I meet my friend there and you can wait at the bar in the mall?
mcb: I love you!



At Dave and Busters' bar and happy hour starts in 5 minutes.
:thankyou:
 
p.s. do Canadians have Black Friday?

No. We have a Thanksgiving and so obviously we have a day after Thanksgiving - although it wouldn't be a Friday - but it is in early October and a bit early for any extreme Christmas shopping craziness.

I'm sure many people who live close to the border would cross over for American Black Friday if the deals were good enough.

I think the closest thing we have in terms of a crazy shopping day with people lining up for hours and whatnot, would be Boxing Day.

I am far from an expert in the finer points and traditions of shopping; but that is my impression.
 
I had to go to a drug store to get some (non-drug) things. It was pretty miserable.

To make matters worse, some really shady looking couple was waiting outside asking people to help jump start their car. This is the second time in the last week that some scuzball has approached me to ask for "help". Are you kidding me? I watch COPS. Fuck off scuzballs in Florida. I do not want to become another set of bones they find in a field along the interstate.
 
The Canadian stores were afraid we were going stateside to party with our dollars being about par..... I bought about $200 worth of clothes for just over $100.... Keep it up America.... and it was all 2 minutes from work. Mind you all it was was 2 pairs of pants and a shirt but I would not have paid $200 for them.
 
I just don't understand why anything is THAT important to camp out for several days not even knowing if you are going to GET whatever it is.

My thoughts exactly. If I ever get to the point where I need to stage in front of Wal Mart for 9 hours before they open so I can buy a video game, I can only hope that a close friend will take me out execution style and put an end to my nonsense.
