It looks like a lot of family groups in the booths. My only thought was that it might be family, somehow. It looks like a lot of family groups in the booths.

Black Friday is certainly the biggest success of the retail goods industry. They've got a lot of people convinced that going to crowded stores and fighting over bargains is fun. Well, Christmas (if you don't buy someone a gift for this day then you don't live them) might be the best success, but Black Friday is a close second.

Even if it's just saliva on glasses and cutlery other reasonable sources are hair and sloughed skin. If he meant crowded, there are certainly much better terms ... too much humanity, too many of the same species, too many ugly bags of mostly water. For crying out loud, he's a writer. At some point isn't the craft supposed to get honed? When I saw this all I could think was EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW.

I'm aware that there's tons of shopping on BF since stores make all those crazy sales, but is it also true for restaurants? If I'm trying to hit all the malls and department stores I'm not likely to waste valuable shopping time in a sit-down restaurant... I'm more likely to hit the drive-through, or just wait until I get home and have some leftovers... And that’s not why it’s called Black Friday either.
