Cantousent Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Happy Thanksgiving to all of you who celebrate Thanksgiving. I hope everyone here has something for which to be thankful. Even if you don't celelbrate Thanksgiving, I hope you have a happy day. Whether you believe in God, love your country, speak to your family, go to church, or even have a lucky rabbit's foot... or not, I hope you all have some good reason to be grateful for something in your life. I tend to go MIA for long stretches, but I'm actually pretty thankful for the board here. Hell, even the folks who habitually disagree with me are fun. I'm glad tarna is still walking the earth, chopping down foes with his big assed claymore, chewing gum, and taking names so he knows who's next in line. Of course, I'm grateful for things in real life, like my wife and friends and home and cat and general happiness. I'm Catholic, so I thank God, but I guess I'd just take a moment to remember I have good things even if I didn't believe in divine providence. Cheers, guys.

Gorth Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I'm an ungrateful bastard.

Walsingham Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 And a happy Thanksgiving to you chaps, also. You may turn up late to all your battles, but you turn up in spades. "It wasn't lies.

Guard Dog Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Happy Thanksgiving everyone to whom that pertains. Happy Thursday to the rest of you folks. It's just me and the dogs today. But I'm cool with that. I'm grilling venison tonight and I've cut flank meat into strips that I'll put in the smoker to make jerky for the dogs. In the mean time I'm going to sit on the porch, drink my coffee, watch the dogs play in the yard, and enjoy the cool weather.

Hurlshort Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Happy Thanksgiving everyone. I'm off to the Big Bone game, which is a High School football game they've been playing here for about 80 plus years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malcador Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 First Thanksgiving in America = school closed, everyone's left town, and water/electricity out tomorrow. Getting some work done and Skyrim. Sure made our work really quiet. Some of the developers skipped out to watch some "football" game too. Why has elegance found so little following?

Cantousent Posted November 24, 2011 Author Share Posted November 24, 2011 Actually, it sounds like a non native american making up a quote to poke fun at the holiday, which is okay. I mean, if I'm currently frequenting the boards in one name or another, I always post a happy holiday message. I almost always get someone who pokes fun at it, which is all cool. Likewise, I often get someone who is riled up about it, which is also cool. Whatever the history of the holiday, what it means now is appreciating a good excuse to meet friends and family for a good dinner. Sadly, I'm going to my inlaws, but I think I'll still have a good dinner and my niece from my wife's side just luuuurves me. So, I'll end up playing Barbie on the Wii which lets me get in touch with my inner feminine child. Life. Is. Good.

Actually the person who said that is about 1/5th cherokee, I think she's more just annoyed with the general stresses of thanksgiving and prefers to ignore it all... But snarky comments always happen with pretty much any form of national holiday. "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyCrimson Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I'm grilling venison tonight and I've cut flank meat into strips that I'll put in the smoker to make jerky for the dogs. I really have to get a smoker one of these days. For me, not my cats. Happy Gobbler Day, luvs ya all. “Things are as they are.
