Every warm fuzzy about humanity I have on Thanksgiving is usually followed by something like this.

[pearwaldorf]

On Buy Nothing Day pseudo-consumers in areas reeking of consumerism will vomit within short increments of each other in a subversively innocent and unrelated way. They will burst out of shops puking at their entrances, puke over ATMs, retching in front of ads, throw up over product displays, vomit from shopping mall balconies, heave in queues. Consume a product and puke it.

I found this linked from the Adbusters Buy Nothing Day page. I'm just not going to get into the idiocy of this, because it's too easy and too infuriating.

Every time I think my opinion of the human race can't get any lower, somebody just has to lower the bar just a bit more.
