by Olivia Youngs

It's that time of year again. Time to gather around the table with our loved ones and be thankf- no, forget about that nonsense. The day after Thanksgiving, Black Friday, leaves the day of thankfulness in the dust. There’s really nothing like a little consumerism to make people forget about the gratitude for non-material items they felt less than 24 hours ago. And if you’re in the minority that refuses to shop today, then you may appreciate a few Black Friday jokes to lighten the mood and justify your cynical feelings.

Now don’t get wrong. There’s nothing wrong with a bargain, and I’ve been known to take advantage of Black Friday sales back in the day. I've been known to enjoy a bargain or two in my day. Yet there’s no denying that there is something. . . weird about giving gratitude for family and friends one day, then shoving someone out of the way for a new TV the next. But hey, I’m not here to judge.

So whether you plan on staying safe in your home or spending your entire day fighting through crowds, here are a few Black Friday one-liners that’ll make you laugh throughout the chaos of the day and get you through till Cyber Monday.
