Today's that day that everyone freaks out about. Black Friday.

Madness.
  • NJ Star-Ledger
  • Madness.

By now surely all of us are aware of its alternative, National Buy Nothing Day, a protest against the consumer-driven day of holiday sales. We're also hip to its off-shoots, like why it should be called Jdimytai Damour Day. Click the link if you need a reminder. People go crazy on Black Friday.
