    @tortadedisrespect6 months ago Whatever that shiny lip stuff is put on so perfectly, very impressive. The way the lip stuff and eyes liner stuff compliment you're pretty facial features without looking exaggerated is cool. You're beautiful and the way you compliment that beauty with makeup shows skill, patience, and hardwork (i can't imagine how hard it is to do it so well). Keep on keeping on. ... 8

    @safaiaryu126 months ago ... damn, it never occurred to me that the people who camped outside stores would have built a camaraderie that was then crushed in the stampedes and fistfights. That was a wild time and I'm SO glad I never did that. 176

    @malmnn2 months ago As someone who's worked over 30 years in retail I absolutely understand the PTSD. Whenever I hear 'It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year' I have flashbacks to Black Friday 2003 when the store I worked at had a special-$10 DVD players! It was indeed a very Black Friday. ... 1
  • @
    @vin34016 months ago Black Fridays used to mean something, people would break into stores and destroy everything, there were crowd surges and broken friendships, and people would literally die for a TV or an MP3 player, that's how low the prices got, nowadays all you get is an email telling you they're selling something for the price it was at the beginning of the year because they've been slowly making it more expensive as the months went by so they could pretend it's cheaper in November. ... 391

    @bell19906 months ago My first job was at Walmart during this time. When I tell you the horror that came every black Friday I am not exaggerating. We guarded those pallets and literally dived out of the way to avoid getting trampled. Walmart was 24 hour then and I was one of the associates that had to patrol a pallet. (Walk around it all night) to make sure no one tried to tear the plastic wrap off with their bare hands to get to it. I had to shove people away. People turned into animals in those days......now it's very boring. ... 55

    @kt-43836 months ago I send my mom my BDU uniform to wear on Black Friday when she was a Wal-Mart associate. This was back before the dress code. She had some crazy stories like how two women were assaulting each other at electronics and people will quietly emptying out their carts. They both got arrest with bruises and left with nothing. She had another where three guys walked around one cart with baseball bats while another, she assume their mother, was grabbing stuff. I swear The Purge is based off human natural witnessed due Black Friday. 😂 ... 127

    @GoblinModeMVPone week ago My mother and I used to have a tradition of grabbing a Dunkin Donuts coffee and going to people watch the chaotic throngs of consumers battling for low prices. We may have gotten towels one year.
    Since Black Friday has become nothing more than every seasonal sale, the thrill of the people watching hunt has waned. We now celebrate the holiday by sleeping in.
