Dr. V Nov 23rd, 2007 07:15 PM

Solly to hear that. I'll take pictures of meds and send them to you.

Aside from being a Megadeth song, wasn't "Black Friday" the day that lead to the Great Depression? Sorry, my bad. "black friday" was the sidekick in "Robinson Cruesoe", as my midget informed me.

The Great Depression began with "Black Tuesday", which was in fact a reference to an earlier event called "Black Friday" that happened when a handful of investors tried to corner the gold market soon after the Civil War.

I was under the impression that only lunatic soccer moms shopped on this day.

Emu Nov 23rd, 2007 10:42 PM

That may have been true in the PS2 generation, but boy howdy

Dr. V Nov 23rd, 2007 10:44 PM

Not when you want that 87" plasma, HD, TV DVD HDVD BLURAY VCR combo for a buck 'o 5.

Schimid Nov 23rd, 2007 11:17 PM

Schimid was the man with the plan.

Emu Nov 24th, 2007 11:25 AM

Jesus, I paid 100 for my 140 gig drive.

Although that was 2 years ago. :<

God, I remember when a megabyte seemed like a lot of memory.

Dr. V Nov 24th, 2007 11:53 AM

When I worked at Staples, people called it jiggabites.

doopa Nov 24th, 2007 02:26 PM

:lol That sounds racist. Go call a black guy that, get back with me on the results.

Wait. Let's just ask our resident black here. 7F if someone called you a Jiggabite, what you rate that on the Racist Remarks Scale?

Dr. V Nov 24th, 2007 07:03 PM

Hey, I didn't say it. It was those asians!

MarioRPG Nov 25th, 2007 09:32 AM

My mom went and she said one guy put his wife up on a stack of merchandise and just throw stuff to him. She also saw someone thrown into a christmas tree.

Protoclown Nov 25th, 2007 01:00 PM

I refuse to go out on Black Friday anymore. I don't care how good the deals are. It's just not worth it.

Sacks Nov 26th, 2007 03:59 AM

I went out and bought Pro Wrestling on NES because I can't find my original copy :<

HungryWantBiddy Nov 26th, 2007 11:39 AM

a 46" LCD!!!

EDIT: I was under the impression that black friday was given its name because the day after T-giving is the day that most retail companies get into the black numbers, or start turning a profit.

Before I got this 500 Gig, I had two internal hard drives; a 20 and a 40 ;(

Fathom Zero Nov 26th, 2007 06:16 PM
