Happy Boxing Day!
I hope everybody had a great Christmas and gave their livers plenty of training for the upcoming New Year’s festivities. Also, I hope everybody got the toys they wanted and nobody had to spend Christmas alone (if you did, perhaps consider a prostitute next Christmas).
While “Boxing Day” is not an observed holiday in the US, it is in countries like Canada and Australia. It’s for people to get over their Christmas hangovers and box up all the holiday goodies they received. It also gives non-retail people the day off to bombard stores for the big Boxing Day specials and to return the crap gifts they don’t want. And if you’re not down with shopping or what have you, Boxing Day is a great opportunity to continue the drinking and make Christmas an official bender. So here’s to Boxing Day!

I usually stay inside cowering on Boxing Day because of the stampede that continually goes past the sidewalk.
Yeah, no way am I hitting any malls. I seriously don’t get those people. I guess they just thrive on frustration and constantly need to have it pumping through their veins for survival.
Yeah, I made a stop in an EB Games on my way back from a haircut and it was total pandemonium. Luckily, I was able to browse until the line went down and then snagged myself a WWII real time strategy game for $10. Not too shabby!
I love buying used games at EB. I never buy them new anymore. Nice bargain you got there Justin!
