Who has pwned @Revoltingest's login. That was a normal, for most people, positive post. Something is wrong here.
Au contraire.....my post was a direct attack upon those sticks in the mud
who hate Black Friday. It's wonderful....all the deals I get....all the bright
& shiny faces of workers slaving away in the early morn to serve me....
Life is good.
AHA - you note those "slaving" away. Now it's clear you are the same old same old.

i know a junk yard that pays $400
it doesn't need to run
but all the parts have to be there
they come and tow it for free

It doesn't do him any good if your imaginary junk yard isn't near him.
So the result is clear....I win!

Failure to use google to answer trivial questions - not a winner.

hey!....I can ask a fellow poster anything I want to....
and I don't have to respond to losers if I don't want to

You can ask anything you want but you betray something by what you ask and how you ask.
(And I wear my badge of loser proudly. I know that in the end "the last shall be first").

It's what's in turkey that makes you sleepy.
THIS is what happens when you ask someone who's ignorant
MythBusters Episode 196: Food Fables
Eating turkey makes you sleepy because it contains tryptophan.
BUSTED
Kari used a Whack-a-Mole game to test the response times of Tory and Grant. In their initial control test while fully alert, Tory scored 61 points and Grant scored 66 points. After taking tryptophan in capsule form, Troy scored 49 and Grant scored 60, indicating that tryptophan can make you tired.
To find out if eating turkey makes you tired, a professor of nutrition helped Kari create 3 meals for Grant and Tory to eat on 3 consecutive days. The first meal was a very large holiday meal with turkey and trimmings. Tory’s meal was 2,420 calories and Grant’s was 2,200 calories. After this meal Tory scored 47 points on the response test and Grant scored 52 points. On the second day, after a meal with the same number of calories but with protein powder in place of the turkey, Tory scored 48 points and Grant scored 42 points. On the third day, the two men ate a normally-sized meal that included turkey. Tory scored 63 points and Grant scored 67 points, both beating their control test. These results indicated that eating an excessive amount of calories in a holiday meal is what makes you tired, not the turkey.
Doesn't sound like a convincing experiment either way.
But I still like the idea that turkey has such power.

Tryptophan - Wikipedia
If you want to play with friend's toys, but she won't allow it because they're
still new & in the original packaging, then just get her to fall asleep.
Ah, yes, wikipedia:
A common assertion in the US is that heavy consumption of turkey meat results in drowsiness, due to high levels of tryptophan contained in turkey.[23][25] However, the amount of tryptophan in turkey is comparable to that contained in other meats
