divide by 365
7,195.6657534246575342465753424658 deaths on black friday

Holy crap is that really how many people die? That's insane. Some cities have less population than that. It's like wiping out multiple cities every day.

But I meant as a result of Black Friday.

I hope no one dies over trying to get a stupid bargain. To have your life cut short and be wiped off the face of the planet all on trying to get a good price for something is asinine.

I'm surprised no one had come up with the idea to manufacture fake Walmart ads that drives people in larger numbers to go crazy on BF.

You are assuming theres more crazies to be had on Black Friday. I think everyone who wants to go, just goes. Theres no need or room for extra incentive. Its already at max crazy.

This could be the last Black Friday.

Think about it. With many stores going out of business. This could be it.

One thing the last few years have taught me is to stay far away from large groups of people...and mostly just never leave the house because when you least expect it you could die because some guys dog pooped in some other guys yard one too many times and the world must pay.

Which is why I call shins on radical terrorists in the USA. How stupid do you have to be to go after low-count soft targets when days like BF can yield so much better results. Almost makes you conclude radicals are the most stupid of any organization.

Just like airport security theater, why go through all of the trouble of trying to take down a plane when you can kill even more people standing in line before you go through security. That means you can make your bomb as big as you can fit in your suitcase, no need to sneak anything past security or any of that nonsense and you shut down at least a portion of a major airport for who knows how long.

I saw a picture of some guy selling a used employee shirt for some company. Buy the shirt, skip lines and get your hands on whatever. I thought it was brilliant. I forget which company.

Heard of a parking lot shooting and a mall closing early due to fights, but no deaths. Boring Black Friday....
