I guess it's no weirder than, say, the number of European retailers with July 4th sales.
Except they invented a reason to shop that no one else has in the world. Great marketing if you ask me.

The Chinese terminology for this day is pretty humorous.

Ever heard of a Hallmark Holiday? Or, ****, Prime Day.

Even harder to comprehend is how they manage to maintain websites from the surging visits of billions on a single day(11.11), then how the human labor and AI keep up with the delivery services.

A day popularized in China for self pity and woe, buying oneself material goods in order to satiate the loneliness of being single. Think black Friday but with the power of Chinese consumers, Alibaba (China's Amazon) made $30 billion USD in a single day, a figure I still can't quite comprehend.

They hit $38 billion today. Last year they were at $54 billion for the entire year. I think that number is probably bullshit
