Black Friday / Happy Thanksgiving!

Postby sharonlover » 11.25.10 9:22am

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

For those that celebrate, what did you eat today? What are some of your family traditions? And who's going to win today's football games? What are you thankful for?

Me? I'm bout to put the turkey in the oven with a new recipe I'm making up as I go along with mashed potatoes, tofu salad, candied yams, and a bunch of other things :)

I'm thankful that I have a wife that supports and loves me, a roof over my head and money to pay the bills. I'm thankful for all my friends and family. I'm thankful to our troops both at home and abroad and pray them safe return to their own families and friends. We may not agree with what the leaders of this country do, but our troops put their lives on the line for this country and it's beliefs. Thank you for your sacrifice!

Hope everyone has a great day!

I'm Asian so, for our stuffing we use fried noodles, and today...a hell lot is going on: making punch, inviting tons of people, etc.

Being an adult, my mom allowed me to decide whether or not I'd go with them to Thanksgiving dinner earlier this week. I chose Donkey Kong Country Returns. She was not pleased. Today, she told me what amounted to "Fuck your decision, you're going anyway."

My bet is that you just lost your choosing abilities for failing to choose the correct option. You have much to learn about women giving you choices. :P


Ah, Thanksgiving, the day in which we celebrate the turkey massacre of 1867 when 153 people were killed by the beaks of a flock of crazed turkeys. We celebrate it by eating turkeys, and if you eat ham on Thanksgiving, you're doing it wrong.

The only acceptable foods for Thanksgiving dinner include: Candied sweet potatoes, green bean casserole, green salad, turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy (don't crash the gravy boat!!!), stuffing, dinner rolls, olives, baby pickles, carrots, celery sticks with cream cheese on 'em, and deviled eggs.

Happy Turkey Massacre Day!

Happy Thanksgiving.
I have made a gift for everyone in the form of a new smiley: "silly/wacky"!!! 8B (eight-capital b)

So enjoy.
The second gift is information. You all need to school yourself on what happened during "the REAL Thanksgiving." (aka "Puritan holocaust")

If that's true it doesn't surprise me. I haven't associated Thanksgiving with that sort of thing since elementary school, anyway.

Whelp, my parents wake up early to start cooking and watch the Macy's Day Parade. Now that they're older, my sisters have taken on some of the dishes and bring them over. I just help out around the house. ;P We'll all sit down to eat in the evening, chill, pray, talk about what we're thankful for, then beach ourselves on a couch after wards, at which point we'll watch a movie, play a game, or both.

It's a good time. :3

The new smiley rocks my face! 8B 8B 8B DA HUR HUR DERP-

We talk, we eat, we talk some more. Then party is over.

Fine with me.

I ate nothing, and i'm thankful for no one, everyone fucking hates me, and my life is a wreck.


Anyways, I didn't really eat anything today, I didn't goto any parties, so I acted like it was a regular day, XD.

I didn't eat much. All I did was draw all day. I used eleven damn pages of my seventy-page notebook that's supposed to be for taking notes.

Fuck that, man.

I'm thankful to be spending Thanksgiving with my mom for the first time in 20 years. I'm thankful that I have all the things that I have. I'm thankful for the scientists who developed the medicines that have kept me alive long enough to be here for another Thanksgiving.

Haha, looking at all of the other posts in this thread, mine makes me seem like a gigantic bastard.

Not that I have a problem with that or anything...
