Black Friday Fun

Hey everyone, it's that day of the year again, Black Friday. Sorry, unlike last time I don't have pictures or video. But then again, there wasn't a whole lot to record or photograph. I do have some stories though.

First I went to walmart. Walmart is cool at black Friday. If you get there early enough, they let you in early. All the sale stuff on sale is shrink wrapped and is opened at the time of the sale. This year they had cardboard covering up the DVDs so we couldn't see the titles. We were alowed to peek though, but it barely helped. It just let us know if they were blu ray or dvd, or movie or tv series. I was after the big bang theory, seasons 1, 2, 3, and 4. I was waiting infront of the box, ready to strike. When the shrink came off, I pounced. I dove onto the cardboard and slid down onto the ground to the seasons of Big Bang. I thought there was just 4, but to my suprise, they had 1, 2, and 3. I grabbed the 4 box sets, and then helped a woman by grabbing a season 1 for her. Hey, I'm already on the ground by them so why not help. I then went to movies. I got Green Lantern: Emerald Knights and The Incredible Hulk (Widescreen Edition). I'm glad I wasn't after the videogames. That was a giant mob. One of my moms friends went to videogames, and she was only able to grab 1 game. Being my brother's first time, I had to teach him what to do. I had him steak out this watch. They had only 1, and he had to be sure he got it. He did.

I had my 1 friend come with me, but he was going to be dropped off by his dad. His dad didn't undersand that at walmart they let you in early if you get there early enough. I told him to get there early enough, but no. Oh well, he had to wait outside. We were done soon, so then we picked him up, and went to best buy.

Best buy made us wait outside. It was a really long line. It was aslo cold, really cold. We kept entertained by doing really weird things. We kept warm by bobing in a circle. It was kind of like these guys.



Yeah it was fun. I didn't buy anything at best buy, but my brother and friend did. I was going to do kmart, but I fell asleep at home. Oh well. This has been Pokematic signing off and bu-bye.

Nastalgia, movies, and a trim to close.

Hey everyone, man do I have a story for you. Let give a little background for you first. Every Tuesday my grandpa and I go to the movies because they run a promotion where you get free popcorn any size with the purchase of a ticket. It's a draw to get you in and buy other concessions, but free popcorn is good. Well because my grandparents really enjoy having me over I stayed over at there house last night so we could go to the movies the next day.

They have the digital preferred or whatever and get way more channels than I do. We have the same cable provider but I have the basic with less than 100 channels and they have the one with over 200 channels plus hd. With the extra channels comes teennick. I like teennick because of the good shows and older shows not on nick anymore like True Jackson VP and drake and josh. Well when watching it I saw a commercial for "90s are all that." Wow nostalgia overload right there. Wait I had way more nostalgia overload when nicktoons actually showed old cartoons from the 90s. Why did you have to change for lesser cartoons? WHY?????????????????????????????????????? Huh, oh yeah, nostalgia at 90s on nick. If you have teennick and find an opportunity to stay up until 2 am, I recommend it crazily. It's All That, Kenan and Kel, Clarissa Explains it All, and Doug. It starts at midnight and goes on until 2 with an encore from 2 until 4 every weekday. If you don't get teennick or can't stay up that late on a weekday, or just want more 90s nick, log on to www.90sareallthat.com. It has more episodes and more shows. So cool.

After sleeping off that staying up late, my grandpa and I went to the movies. Our normal theater didn't have any movies we wanted to see or haven't seen yet. Luckily I brought my laptop and one of their neighbors had an open wifi signal. I looked up the movies at a different theater that shows last run movies. We went to see Green Lantern. My grandpa was a little sceptical because he apparently never heard of it. But he loved it. Read my review here. I did stay after the credits because I thought there would be a teaser afterwards, and then stayed even longer. They had a bunch of legal stuff at the end of the credits that was kind of funny. There was stuff about how "no tobacco company payed us to show tobacco" and stuff like that. Next they showed the Warner Brothers logo, then the rating of the movie. Due to film grain I could tell it was actual movie film, and at the end, it had the count down thing, the random screen test things, and then nothing. It was cool.

Last is a little story about miss judging the length of a trimmer clip. Since I'm going away in 2 weeks and I probably won't be getting a hair cut or trimming my beard while I'm at college, my parents have been nagging me to trim my beard. Well I trimmed and could only find one clip. I deiced to use it and this is what happened.
It's so short! Ahhhhhhh. It's not a beard it's shadow. Oh well it'll grow back and I'll be bushy again. Well that was today. This has been Pokematic signing off and bu bye.

Pokematic goes to black friday

I did something cool recently, black Friday shopping. I went to Walmart at 10:30 and spent 1 and a half hours camping out in front of the dvd section. I brought my psp with many hours of downloaded videos from Crackle, mainly Big Guy and Rusty.






They didn't upload properly, no matter what I tried, sorry.

Because of the trampling, Walmart did something different. This year, they let everyone in early and then had all the deal items wrapped in a cellophane tape thing. I was in front of the dvd section waiting to get Superman Doomsday, Batman Under the Red Hood, Batman and Superman Public Enemies, Green Lantern First Flight (or whatever the subtitle is), and Mr. Beans Holiday. I go all 5 of those movies for about $10. What a great deal, and that's $10 all together. I also got proof that PS2 is still alive and well. They were selling NEW games in the cellophane. I have pictures to prove it.

After Walmart, I went to Kohls. I waited outside for about an hour. I didn't need to go in since I was just holding the spot for my mom and her friend. I hold a spot in line, she buys me stuff of Christmas, it all works out. Sorry, no video or pictures for this part. Hope you enjoyed my Black Friday blog. This has been Pokematic, signing off, and bu-bye.
