Retailers: "You love Black Friday so much, we're going to open Thanksgiving night!!!!"

Consumers: "Go fuck yourselves."

Honestly, I know these stores will still see lines, but I hope not. I hope consumers completely reject this shit.

I am sick and tired of walking into stores in August and seeing Halloween displays. I'm tired of going to a store in February to get a snow shovel only to learn they put that stuff away a month ago and are now selling summer stuff.

For retailers to now move sales onto a huge holiday when people should be spending time with their families...it's bullshit.

I'm buying a new outdoor grill, soon. That shit is going on sale hard.

But my only Black Friday shopping will be on amazon, so I don't care about what stores do.

Meh, I don't care when they do it. Hell if I ever was going to wake up for 4am or 6am shopping. 10pm Thursday night? If I cared, I'd be down with that.
It's not me, it's someone else.

I wonder if Christmas decorations are going up earlier this year because people are generally unhappier and want to be cheered up.

I know, RACIST.
