Poll Sugestion: Face-Off: Black Friday Comedies

@mariojacobs​ There are multiple meanings to the term, "Black Friday". I think the popularity of the term really took off when retailers themselves embraced the term and used in their advertisements.

 In department store retail it signifies the transition from the unprofitable or barely covering your expenses portion of a year period (accounting red) (that is three-quarters of a year) from to the fourth quarter period (Nov, Dec, Jan) that department store's make the lion's share of their annual profit during. (accounting black). The six week Christmas selling season that starts with the week of Thanksgiving and the Friday after Thanksgiving, aka "Black Friday" is considered the key turning point, when sales and profits will exceed expenses.
