I have to seriously question the sanity of anyone who shops anywhere on Black Friday.

It's not personal towards you and yours. For me it is not about this latest thing, which may or may not be as innocent as Wal-Mart claims. For me it is the sum total of a list of things they are doing. Just a few years back they refused to cave into ANY of this stuff. Now all of a sudden they are all pro-homosexual in every way. I've spent plenty of time on FR defending Wal-Mart over lots of charges in the past, always citing that they were pro-family. Well, now they are not. So I have earned the right to express my dissatisfaction. They dumped the reason I defended them for so long. I figure I should devote at least as much time and energy to expressing my disappointment with their flip-flop into perversity-diversity as I did to my defending them based on their old pro-family, wholesome positions.

It's all in the FR archives somewhere.

You are correct. Fighting the Blue Hairs is no fun!

My wife and I built a new house this year and I built a home theater and needed a new display. I picked one out and then my wife said to me, "wait till black friday and you can get a bigger one!"

So I was going to. Then I decided I didn't want to deal with the hassle and the likelyhood of massive savings on the display I wanted were pretty slim. Maybe a couple hundred bucks. So I just went and bought it.
