the year? Almost sounds like a term that might've been applied to a very dark day in U. S. history, much like " 9 / 11 " has become the common reference to the day of the terrorist attacks on New York, Washington, and Pennsylvania. I dunno, it just doesn't sound like a term that should be used to kick off the Christmas shopping season. What do you think...?
And yes, I know why they call it that, but that doesn't do anything to make it acceptable, atleast not in my book...

I was thinking the same thing, actually. 'Black' is usually used to describe something dark and disastrous-- like 'Black Monday' for the stock market crash.
But then again, for those of us who dread the Holidays (me), maybe using the term 'Black Friday' is somewhat fitting.
