The fall is always marked by a serious of unfortunate events. Starbucks stops offering those shaken blended lemonades to rot your teeth and empty your wallet, Wal-Mart starts rolling back prices on duct tape and plastic to seal your windows and an absolute metric ton of games arrive on store shelves.
