Fighting over chicken shit.
Firday, I didn't want to go out for black friday. It's cold, it's early, and I don't need a thing.
8pm Thursday night, my father's GF wants to leave to line up at Best Buy. She wants a tv and other things.
My GF want's to go to Target for TNMT pants. (I find out they aren't even a BF sale item)
My father reminds me we had a good time last year, and says we are going to hit IHOP at the end.
I go to spend time with GF.
We get to Best Buy around 8:30 to find several hundred people in line.
Father and his GF get in line while she says they are waiting on tickets. We ask around and look for a worker to find out what these tickets are even for. Not one person knows or has a consistant idea.
I take the GF to Target to get her pants, and there are no shoppers, only people in line at the registers. From the front to the back.
We go back to Best Buy and tell them what a mob it is.
We decide to hold their place in line while they shop because its 9, tickets don't come out til 10 and the place does't open until 12.
Waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting.
Best Buy people start going buy with BF flyers and sheets of paper with a single item on them with product info. They shout, Sony digital camera 10 mege pixel $129. And Play Station Vita $200.
I think these are ads for things on sale.
Someone goes by, SHARP 20" LCD and a person behind me askes about it, and eventually they say there only have a few numbers left.
I think numbers left? And ask what are these for?
It's the ticket number for a door buster item.
I think shit, I think she wanted a door buster, and text to see what they wanted.
My father calls, and I tell him to text me not ask me to remeber a list.
50" LED Toshiba tv.
Wait, wait, wait, never hear it.
Father arrives and askes what is happening.
I explain. And blames me for not knowing what they wanted.
Hmm, why did I text them....
Another Best Buy comes around and my father askes about the tv, oh those, they didn't even make it around the first turn of the building. Gone with in seconds.
I spend the rest of BF in the car with my GF because she is tired, I don't need anything, and neither one of us want to spend hours on end roaming a store filled with animals.
My father and I haven't spoken in 3 days. Grandmother goes to the hostiple by the way, I'm never told.
I go up to him today, to find out which baby I murdered, and that, above, is his problem. I didn't know what the ticket system is about, didn't know just want they wanted, and then I had an attitude because I slept in the car.
Sweet jebus totally worth losing my voice and being on the edge of kicking some MoFo's ass. And still not talking.Dispatch the DooM

<RANT>
Black Friday showed the nations of the world how truly fucked up we are in the United States. We would aparently sell out our own children and grandmothers for a fucking deal. This is why we are going to be beat, not because of religious fundamentalists or fucking communits, this right here.
Its not about me hating america or capitalism, its about consumerism as a replacement for meaning in our lives. We don't have hobbies and heaven forbid we learn or do things just for the satisfaction that comes with completion of a task, no, no, no, lets claw our eyes out for a TV that we cannot even make in this country anymore. Consumerism is about as bad and soulless as comunism.
