Bought a few games from Steam. Otherwise, nah. I think some sales last over the weekend, when the chaos cools down... I'll grab some plushies from Toys R Us or something tomorrow.

Skyward Sword, a couple albums, and a couple skins in League of Legends. I went out in the afternoon, so there weren't any epic deals or anything but I got to sleep in so I think that's worth it.

Please allow me to explain what "Appointment Monday" is. You know, as in "appointed counsel."

All together now:

"It happens every Cyber Monday, though some would say I'm way off base....
Every lawyer knows it's this and the-day-after-St.-Patrick's-day you can always get a case!
I'm talkin' 'bout all those people in line who police park 'round Wal*Mart for!
"If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be appointed for ...." is said to them on the floor.

{Chorus
Its 'bout the magic sales makin' people get offa their tails and into the jails!
When the sun goes down they they creep into town and stand 'round to save on e-lectronics!
(background echo: and maybe hooked on phonics...*)
O there ain't no beatin' that holiday feelin' when they saaaay shuuuuut uppppp tooo you.
No there ain't no ceilin' on those holiday feelin's when someone shoves you.}

We're here to make that true and hopefully even get paid for it (some) too!
The state pays 8-10 weeks late, but we still don't freakin' hesitate to represent you!
Probable cause, warrant clause, too damn early for santa clause, or just because!
We line up for moms who cracked each other's teeth, 'neath glowing signs in lines.


{Chorus}


Sometimes it's R.O.R. or C.S.R. it's all the same damn thing; they just want the exit buzzer to ring!
They say they didn't but know they did; it was over a toy for their kid!
O there ain't no beatin' that holiday feelin' when they say shut up to you.
No there ain't no ceilin' on those holiday feelin's wheeeen sommmmmmeonnnne shoves yooooooou."

I'd like to say I'm sorry for this being in incredibly poor taste but I could care less. This and alcohol are how I cope. :D

You could care less, eh? How much?  ;)

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

Just less :P

Also I got two sweaters, a cute outfit "for some female relative" *cough*.... and probably 3 appointed cases! :P

Note: I did not freaking wait in line, knowing what I know about them. Rather I just waited in the store beforehand while everyone else had yet to line up. It was open 24/7.... Might as well.


Um, no thanks.

I really hope that is some kind of secret lawyer song, drunkenly sung Thanksgiving night in anticipation. Good times for all.

'The state pays 8-10 weeks late but still we don't freakin hesitate. . .' lol

Not bad, but see how "phonics" rhymes better than "alcoholics?" It's got more rhyming parts:

Electronics:

Phonics~ "onics"
Alcoholics~ "ics"

See? :)

Electronics→

Phonics
[DISEASE] chronicus (The 'uh' sound is kinda short, so it sort of works.)
Ebonics
Positronics (Antimatter circuitry theory, yeah, it's cheating a bit.)
Teutonics (Germans)
Laconic

Uh....

President Elect Ron, Ix! (Ix is slang for 'it is', or the number 9 if you pronounce your roman numerals like a lunatic. This sentence would therefore mean, "It is President Elect Ron [over there/right here/that we are speaking of]!")

Wow, this is.. This is kinda crazy, no offense to you Americans! Wow, no deaths from trampling is unusual?! :o
Tramply death is unusual. That's why it makes the news.
