Oh, how dare you use a aggressive tone because you're lost on a comic storyline, while sneaking in a remark about the country!
For those who don't understand, Black Friday is a day after Thanksgiving where most stores have major sales. This causes a lot of people to attend. A lot of people attending wanting to get into a store. Thus in return a simple delayed opening can make a LOT of unhappy people. Case in point, I believe it was two years ago when a young employee at a major store (I forgot which store) was trying to help prepare things while the store was about to open. People outside waited all day and didn't want to wait anymore, they burst through the store when it was finally opened, trampling the young man to death, while they continued shopping.
It's a stupid ploy by the companies here, and anyone who part-takes must be seriously desperate for the sale or crazy to risk themselves in such situations, because no sane person would go for a regular shopping day on Black Friday.
