Here We Go Again
[ad_1]
This week has been mostly centered on a holiday for
the USians. In the era of online retail and the
global dominance of Amazon, the notion of "Black Friday"
seems to have spread further than the harvest festival
itself. The practice of mass national migrations
thankfully has not.
Migrating
Maia
exclaims
"Oh wow, I can change my flight for a fee of only [AMOUNT]! What a deal!"
Adam R.
, who might or might not be American, participates
but does not embrace the commercialism. Says he
"I was doing some shopping before Black Friday, and
while registering an account on this site, they asked
me to opt into some very zen marketing emails. Nevertheless, I still declined."
Logical
Evgeny
deduced
"I guess they quit maintaining the whole product altogether."
Oldie-but-goodie
Tycho
recognized another oldie.
"This joke was ahead of its time when it first ran
(in the late '90s), but not THAT far ahead…"
And as usual, regular
Michael R.
chimes in
"It is not understandable to me." Is it understandable to anyone?
For those who celebrated, I will close with the
possibly apocryphal factoid that the average American
gains 2 pounds between this holiday and New Year's Day.
I got that covered today alone. Good luck to you all.
