The day after Thanksgiving and official start of the Christmas shopping season. When stores open anytime in between midnight and 5 AM and set everything on sale. To promote the sale, a mass amount of advertising is used, causing everyone to forget their is a month until Christmas so they go to hell and back to get all their holiday shopping out of the way one day not even in the month of the holiday.
I haven't slept in almost 50 hours because my mom shoved us all in the car immediately after Thanksgiving dinner and made us go to Black Friday sales all damn day.

The excellent debut album by Avenged Sevenfold, released in 2001 by Good Life Records and re-released by Hopeless Records the next year. This is the only album to feature original bassist Dameon Ash, featured on both versions. The original also doesn't feature lead guitarist Synyster Gates while the re-release does. The most noted track from the album is "Warmness on the Soul". This album also contains the most screaming vocals by M. Shadows.
Mark is a huge sevenfold fan, but unfortunatly he lacks a copy of Sounding the Seventh Trumpet.

When you submit multiple definitions to Urban Dictionary and they reject every one of them.
I sent multiple definitions, all very well written, but all of them were rejected. Urban Dictionary is on another goddamn Reject-a-thon.

The video sharing site that allows you to "broadcast yourself". Launched in 2005 and purchased by Google in 2006, the site was good until around late 2008/early 2009 when Youtube started acting more like a dictatorship, enforcing stupid copyright rules, forcing users to adapt to new designs and formats they don't want, eliminating user groups, and requiring users to sit through ads before letting them watch their video. If you are thinking of starting an account I urge you to reconsider. If you currently have an account, I would consider deleting it and not returning until Youtube agrees to return to the way things worked from around 2005-mid 2008.
Youtube has gone to hell since Google took over. They want to kick the everyday you and me users off the site and only allow popular people like Fred and Rebecca Black to post videos. To the YT heads, if you don't pay money, you aren't worth their time.

Hilarious 1980 movie. After the navigator and both pilots are among multiple people on an airline heading to Chicago from Los Angeles that get sick from some strange foodbourne illness, a doctor and two flight attendants seek the help from everyday man Ted Stryker (the ex-lover of one of the flight attendants) who has trouble just going near a plane since he made what he believed to be a bad move during an airstrike in the Vietnam War.
The movie is known for it's very random humor (i.e. a group of reporters is getting info about the crisis when one of them says "Okay boys, lets get some pictures". They then walk over to a wall with framed photographs of airlines and randomly start taking them down and walking out the door).
I got annoyed when my friend kept uttering the "don't call me Shirley" joke from Airplane!

The largest city in Illinois, and the state's unofficial capital. One of the greatest cities in the country, and probably the world. Sure, maybe we're not as flashy or glamorous as New York or L.A., but Chicago is a beautiful place and if you spent one day in the city you'd see why it's residents love it.
There's always something to do in Chicago, so don't go knocking it until you've seen it for yourself.

College term for a class that gets cancelled for a semester due to insufficient enrollment by the semester's start date.
This does not mean the college has removed the class altogether. They still plan to offer it in the future starting the next semester (assuming they meet the minimum required enrollment by the specified date).
Greg: So how's music theory going?
Tom: It became a withdrawn course after only five students signed up for it. I'll just try again next semester.
