I am thankful for my mom, and the fact that she made my life easier. I am thankful that tomorrow I won't be forced to attend church or a mosque or synagogue either.

I hate that some take Christmas day literally too. But I am not such a fucking dick that while I object to the logic of the history, that I am going to condemn anyone for having a day off and spending time with their family.

My favorite holiday is New Years Day because all the hype is over. So if I post ABBA's "Happy New Year" video, and I will, does that mean I want to kill everyone who doesn't like ABBA?

Point is, there is a time for arguing logic, blasphemy and simply wishing people well.

I could give a shit what they call tomorrow. To me it is an excuse to drink beer, and watch football.

Sure, I can go with all of that. But the fact is that thanksgiving simply does not exist outside the US. Nobody else cares. Americans might believe that everyone else cares but nobody does. It is a peculiar 5% that does and not even all of them. 

Seems to me the you are in the same place as the Great British Empire from days of yore. Same blindness, same irrelevance. Same result. 


The US could retain relevance, true. 
but not when they elect a squirrel haired idiot as commander in chief.

Have Americans no idea how everyone in the international community views this?

Dude. Wtf does that have to do with us being thankful?
“I’m thankful. Happy holiday.”
“Shut up, bitch. Nobody cares! Fuggin ‘murikans!”

The fuck.
