What is mysterious about it? It's the annual thanksgiving day sale... Pretty much non-mysterious as it can get

I think OP is commenting on how they are calling it "One-Day Apple Shopping Event" rather than actually mentioning black friday.

Black Friday's a US thing, while the Apple sale happens world-wide. No mention of Black Friday = one theme across all international sites.

It would be pretty damn mysterious if they were just now announcing a shopping event for October 23, but actually the HN headline is just wrong.
