Two cats this week, one who is lazy – and one who is not.

Lazy Cat:

And here’s a hard working cat:

Someone get these two in a “buddy cop” movie.

So whether or not you’re out holiday shopping right now (or re-watching all 9 Thanksgiving episodes of Friends like me), The WB would like to make the long weekend as comfortable as possible.

Here’s a list of Black Friday deals for you guys to keep an eye on:

• Mashable has a list of the top 10 online sites for Cyber Monday deals. Read carefully and shop recklessly.
• Consumer Reports’ blog lists ways to get the best out of Black Friday EVER. I hope they add “do not stampede poor Walmart employees to death” at the bottom.
• How to save even more money on Black Friday? Read all about it on io9. I think I’ll be following this list the most.
• If you’ve got a video game nerd in the family/friends group, Kotaku compiled a convenient list to getting the best game deals around.
• Or if you’re rich and days like Black Friday and Cyber Monday mean nothing to you because you own the world, Luxist celebrates the holiday shopping season with the Nordstrom’s Ultimate Gift Collection.

If you’re like me, you like to stay away from the crazy hordes around Black Friday (and eat leftover stuffing in front of the TV set).

If you’re also like me, you like to shop for awesome deals online. Thus, I present to you the new website, ZingSale, which will email you when your wanted item goes on sale somewhere in the depths of the Internet. It’s simple, just search for the product you soooo want for Chrismukkah, find the price you want to pay, enter your email address and wait. The moment it goes on sale, ZING! There’s an email notification waiting in your inbox. You’ve got until December 23rd to use this, or otherwise you’re that jerk without any gifts to give.

Fabulous. Now I have even LESS work to do.

With the turkey leftovers in the fridge, Black Friday has officially started. I personally like to stay far away from them, because who knows what can happen with a crowd of deal-hungry shoppers in the wee hours of the morning? Wait, I can tell you. DEATH.

A Walmart worker was already reported killed this morning after being stampeded over by shoppers when the store opened at 5:00am in Long Island, NY. A pregnant woman was also reportedly injured when the people rushed towards the open door.

People!! This is insanity!!! Stop killing people for great deals at Walmart!

This is why I do all my holiday shopping at Target.

Would you argue with me if I stated that the best thing about Thanksgiving was the leftovers? There’s nothing like cold turkey and stuffing in the morning. Yum, yum.

Personally, I just like to keep my leftovers traditional. Yes, this means I recreate my Thanksgiving dinner plate for 3 days straight but leave me alone.

We’ve found some pretty innovative recipes for the rest of y’all to help spruce up your own leftovers. Check them out!

• Wisebread offers not one, or two, but FOUR different meals you can make! (The mashed potato patties are the best.)
• Cooking Light decides to go abroad with their “Turkey With An Accent” series: you can add a global twist to the traditional Americana foods by making turkey potstickers or turkey lime soup.
• Meanwhile, the Chicago Sun-Times argues that Thanksgiving leftovers should be exactly that: left simple. Read all about it here.
• There’s a whole list of ideas for you to try at CDKitchen.

Enjoy!

Do you like stop motion animation, pie, or both? Then you’ll enjoy this little YouTube Thanksgiving greeting.

Do you think you’re going to have any Thanksgiving turkey leftovers? If so, you may want to check out the USB Lunch Bag.

Just plug the bag into your computer’s USB port, and it will keep your lunch at a balmy 140 degrees Fahrenheit. Now there’s no reason to go out to lunch! So long, daylight!

Like all great gadgets and giant monsters, this thing is from Japan. I hope we Americans get this device soon, since I plan on having a lot of leftover turkey.

We first offered you options to make Rachel’s infamous trifle from Friends, and now we bring you Ross’ lumpy mashed potatoes which he insisted Monica make for Thanksgiving after Phoebe made them too creamy. You can watch that episode if you need to refresh your memory.

I always thought lumps in mashed potatoes were bad, but apparently people LIKE lumps in their potatoes! You can try them yourself with the recipes below:

• Perfectly Lumpy Mashed Potatoes from Big Oven.
• Lumpy Garlic Mashed Potatoes from Food In The Fort.
• Southern Style Lumpy Mashed Potatoes via eHow.com.
• And my personal favorite, Caramelized-Shallot Mashed Potatoes which you can just make lumpy by not mashing it enough. That’s what makes it lumpy, right?

I’m sure most of you are super excited about tomorrow’s Thanksgiving dinner, but I know there are a select few who view the whole day as a challenge, especially when it comes to weight-loss.

Luckily, About.com has a handy list of ways to “triumph over Turkey Day,” including stuffing yourself not with turkey but with vegetables, staying off the alcohol, portion control and basically, a whole lotta UNFUN. Boooooring!

You can read the entire list yourself, but please know that I completely disagree with it. Way to ruin Thanksgiving!

Carrie Bradshaw and company will be returning to the silver screen, according to Sarah Jesscica Parker.

In an interview with MTV news, Parker indicated they hope to have a Sex and the City sequel in theaters by 2010.

They don’t have a script yet, but Parker said she knows she won’t be playing a mother in the Sex sequel.

Carrie must be practicing safe Sex in the City.

After the jump, my photoshopped version of the sequel’s poster that hopefully is just as funny as when I posted it a few weeks ago.
