Lots of us are trying to find some moments and places of joy in this dystopian hellscape. I'm not a Black Friday person... but I know peopl who are, and for some of them, it's actually something they look forward to. I mean, I don't really get it. I can't stand crowds and I detest combing through through crap for a deal. But some people love it.
