Day after Thanksgiving, "official" beginning of the Christmas shopping season. One-day "mega" sales which involve stores opening hours early and people lining up all night. If you're unfortunate enough to work in retail then you will be clocking-in to the seventh circle of Hell. |

:wtf:
Ok, damn, that sounds...interesting.
We don't have Thanksgiving over here, but I've heard 'Black Friday' referred to within the hospitality industry as the last Friday before Christmas.
And yet everywhere I go, I see Christmas trees already.
Kill me. |

| Was gonna buy a Xone:92 from Guitar Center @ 20% off. But alas they don't stock 'em in stores (near me atleast). Only DJM-800, even with the sale I'd prefer the 92 over the Pioneer so I won't be taking advantage of the offer... :( |

I'm glad I don't work the floor in retail, looking on it and to some degree, adding to the jingling misery from afar is bad enough. |

Bloody Adelaide train station had christmas decorations all through the concourse about a month ago and now have cheesy looking twinkly lights on the platforms.
Decorations are allowed now, the pageant was two weekends ago and Father Christmas is in the magic cave so its allowed.

People who make these decisions me, in their efforts to avoid offending anyone they end up offending everyone instead. |
