As you know, Black Friday is the name given to the Friday that falls right after Thanksgiving (the United States Thanksgiving, that is). And while to most of us, Black Friday is associated with a shopping spree, the term was first used to describe a phenomenon happening among factory workers. Coined in 1951 by Factory Management and Maintenance journal, it referred to the practice of workers calling in sick the day after Thanksgiving due to ‘food poisoning’ in order to have a four-day weekend. Smart, huh? On the other hand, it did leave plenty of time to do your shopping, so sales and Black Friday origins might not be as far from that tale as we all think. Anyway, nowadays, Black Friday presents its own ridiculous situations with frenzied shoppers and brands going way out of their way to promote their discounts which, naturally, creates a very nice pretext for some Black Friday jokes. And that’s what we have gathered here for, right?
While these funny Black Friday jokes might not be about factory workers calling in sick anymore, they will surely talk about the crazed shoppers. Do you remember those old-school videos from the ‘90s with people queueing to get the latest Playstation or whatnot for days beforehand just to save a tenner? Seems absolutely nuts now when most of the shopping is online! Besides this prominent topic, you’ll also find some of these cool jokes to be bona fide Black Friday dad jokes. Meaning, of course, that they are so bad, they’re hilarious. And, if you’re looking for quick comedic relief, there are plenty of Black Friday one-liners, too!
