It’s Black Friday (for reals, this time… maybe)

You know how champagne can’t be legally called champagne unless the grapes are grown in the Champagne region of France? Why can’t we do that with Black Friday? I’ve been seeing Black Friday ads the past few weeks for sales going on at that moment even though it was weeks before Thanksgiving. Or how about those ‘Black Friday in July’ ads?

It’s like that Aesop’s fable, ‘The Boy Who Cried Wolf’. Too many Black Friday’s and we won’t believe you even if it’s true. Also, people become numb to certain things when they’re seen over and over.
