I'm sorry, but the Black Friday stories actually upset me and make me despise my fellow man even

more. There's something infinitely depressing about watching these filthy creatures trampling over each other to get to some ****ty piece of consumer goods. As a microcosm of the human condition, it's just a bit too near the knuckle. It's weltschmerzed the f**k out of me, I don't mind telling you. :-(

For instance, how can anyone look at this picture and claim that mankind is in any way redeemable or worth saving? :puke:

We don't even wait for so called Black Friday, and *******s to your high quality electrical goods, we fight over dolls.

I was trying to find a nice contrast picture of Bumpy Johnson handing out food from a truck but am too hungover to find it.

Shopping should only be undertaken as a sort of mission. Defined goals, planned routes, in and out in the optimum time.

These people who wander around indoor malls breathing through their open mouths crammed with food whilst their eyes are glazed over with the sheer joy of it all.

Humans are ****

A la that picture.

Everyone has their dark side b, let's not make sweeping generalisations on 'ol Bumpy. Just feeding the family you know.

[Berni]

sense of self-righteousness and entitlement? Ugh.

[the splendor of antigone]

available to them? These people probably need* this **** more than the average consumer who doesn't have to act like a feral animal when there's a sale. It's just the cultural logic of late capitalism :shrug: They aren't any less reprehensible than the average middle or upper-middle-class Apple fanboy idiot.

*pseudo-needs

[Berni]

absolutely do not 'need' in any sense, pseudo or otherwise.

There isn't a single, actual poor person there. These are just sheep who've been encouraged in their disgusting behaviour and lack the self-worth or dignity to resist the call.

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

Awesome.

It's the culture that's f**ked in the head.

I like my Volkswagen, but I still think on balance that Hitler was a c**t.

haul will be posted up online with a margin added on.
I don't see the fighting over of low quality electronic goods as being the stuff of poverty.

[the splendor of antigone]

that's generally how capitalist ideology functions.
Have a detached, cynical distance and attitude to consumer items, brands, and the whole culture of consumption, but still - by how you are acting in the market place, - the whole charade functions anyway.

The real danger is if people over-identify with the ****, that's when the stupidity of the whole thing is exposed in its inaneness. Like the chick in that video.

[Berni]

ideology involved tbh.

Can all be done from the comfort of your living room

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

[redgunamo]

Or on a Wall Street trading floor, for that matter.

Truly needy people do not scrummage like the England pack of old, hollering and shouting the while. They don't have the resources for it. You'll find them hidden away in dark corners slowly dieing, waiting for the marines to arrive.

The folk in those pictures are after more, not merely enough.

[Luis Anaconda]

Jammy f**kers but what I want to know is what is the deal with Perisic and the Everton players - seemed to be bessie mates with all of them, chatting and giggling with Eto in tunnel and have a long conversation with Lukaku before the start of the second half.

[redgunamo]

[Luis Anaconda]

What would Dean Richards say?

[the splendor of antigone]

people are these people.

[The Tony]

Cue Sir Charlie...is this a cartoon?

[7evens]

or something that sounded equally unfortunate.

[PSRB]

Bit fortunate with the 1st disallowed goal but thought after that they were very good. Mirallas is a cracking player.

No idea about Peresic, will ask next time I see him

[Luis Anaconda]

Not on Wednesday's performance mind

[redgunamo]

:-O

[Pat Vegas]

[Luis Anaconda]

I like Wolfsburg though - shame they didn't get Mandzukic back instead of Super Nik. Defence is as dodgy as f**k though

[PSRB]

But it could easily be an 8 game losing run due to their crap defence.......I thought straight away they are the German Arsenal

[redgunamo]

He's good enough for someone like Spurs even, I'd have thought?
