vintageadsFriday - Sunday, November 27 - 29, Weekend Events: Floating body parts in ads AND Zombie apocalypse, what you would need to survive one!
Floating hands, floating heads, just a foot showcasing a shoe---those are examples of floating body parts. Plenty of ads with floating body parts!
AND
ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE!! What you would need to survive one! So ads for batteries, water, canned food, whatever YOU think you would need to survive! So VERY wide open interpretation there!!
The zombie apocalypse theme is this weekend because in the States it's 'Black Friday' and not the neato keen Steely Dan song either!! It's a day where people will flat out KILL others to get into a store first to buy an alleged deal to give as a Christmas gift to someone for I guess validation? Oh no wait, it's to celebrate the birth of Jesus. Vicious brutal consumerism is definitely a way to celebrate that. (If that is your religious belief). Fights over the last doodad, shoving matches in the through the store check out lines because they must check out STAT to rush to the next store to fight again! People with VERY little sleep and MAJOR aggression driving on the roads only thinking of getting to the next store. But hey, as the fights break out, or someone is being stampeded to death, you'll hear Christmas music playing and isn't that all just jolly??
I will only leave my house if I have a furbaby emergency. I almost got killed by a zombified shopping woman years ago. Who cares if she was bleeding? She kept telling the cop she had to get to Kaufman's, could he just let her walk to Kaufman's? They didn't let her go. South Park depicted black Friday brutality, obviously, highly exaggerated a couple seasons ago; but people DO camp out for DAYS, they DO beat others up; they ARE willing to kill. So PLEASE, PLEASE if you go out Friday, be VERY VERY safe!!! Be more than usually alert on the road as there will be sleep deprived people out there. And absolutely no item probably made in China by child labor is worth a fight or death!!! Most sales are also online!
