Apparently, it's Cyber Monday next Monday. I think the Yanks have a lot to answer for.

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been. My BFF Clash The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.
The sort of knuckle-dragging morons that form those crowds in the shops are an aggregation of the lowest denominators in society:
Reality TV viewers.
IQ's stamped inside their footwear so they don't have the imagination to do their homework (i.e. the Karcher example posted in this thread.)
The benefits brigade.
The greedy.
Victims of Americanization and vulgarity.
One broken wrist reported in a scrum at one store, another woman hit by a falling TV and several fainting.
Just for laughs, here's a link with a couple of Black Friday store fights. The second one shows American cops doing one of the things they do best. That is, taking a relatively calm disagreement between two customers and ramping up the tension with tasers and handcuffs.
