derspiess is going to let the turkey go in the front yard and bolas the shit out of it, all Gaucho-style.  LIKE OUTLAW YOSEY VALES, NO?

Lord, those may taste great but they sure sound nasty. "pig pickin cake"? "Frog eye salad"? "Dirt pudding"? "Funeral potatoes"?  :lol:
I was going to say. These sound awful.

Americans are never allowed to laugh at spotted dick again :contract:

Thanksgiving is the one American holiday I'm very jealous of. Love to celebrate it in the US one year.
Let's bomb Russia!

I'm due my winter ration of deer jerky, come to think of it.

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

Definitely my favorite non-Christmas holiday.  Pity the thing is being turned into a Christmas shopping event.  Give Thanksgiving its due!

Frog eye salad? Snicker salad?

What the hell is wrong with people!  :wacko:
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.

You don't have to participate in that, though.  I don't know anyone who would give up part of their Thanksgiving with friends/family/turkey/football to go shopping.

For what it's worth, the self-righteous Facebook campaign to boycott Thanksgiving Day sales is annoying.
