Thanksgiving is very close. I'm not sure how many of you guys actually celebrate Thanksgiving, but I do. 
While I don't have any family to celebrate Thanksgiving with, I'll probably do a Thanksgiving dinner with my friends, and we'll end up not able to move for a few days. XD

So what's the point of this thread again? Wellll....

What are you guys thankful for? How do you celebrate Thanksgiving(if you do, of course). What food do you guys eat? :P (I don't like turkey, actually. But mashed potatoes and gravy are very good.)

Wait, you're blind? How do you use a computer?

... Lol kidding

Tim, you are frustrating.

Actually, I am Tim.

No, you can beat MY imagination.

Well then.

I beat to my imagination all the tim- I mean, I can... Also... Duel with my imagination...

Tim, how many children do you have? You can't Dad-Joke that hard without being authentic.

In all curiosity, how do you use a computer anyways?

Might as well say trolololol >.>

That was the point.

@Mayana You'll never know it...

Lolno

Does your screen reader tell you there's an image there, or do you mouse over it?

Edit: Think I fucked up.

Sure, you could hide an Image from Mayana.... By creating one so broken that you couldn't see it if you had ESP.

To be honest, I find that the only thing those who know me can be thankful for is my humble sense of self-importance and preeminence. More often than not, it's clear that others are often grateful for the chance to merely glimpse at my inherited magnificence.

Personally, though, I'm thankful for the gifts of murderous rage, the perpetual suffering and deterioration of sentient life forms, and the ominous furnace of my wrathful hellfire. When the time of Ragnarok arrives, I'll be content to observe all signs of earthly life end in the wake of my uninhibited crusade of destruction.

As for the foods I'd prefer to eat, that would include toxic reptiles, warm mammalian blood, the corpses of burned felines, the chewy, oily intestines of diseased infants, Spam, the bones and marrow of my dearest friends, and each individual soul that inhabits the mortal domain.

But, since I'll be having family over, I think I'll stick with a turkey dinner this year.

I am thankful I am not one of your dearest friends, a toxic reptile, a mammal, a feline, a infant, nor do I have a soul. Oh. And I am definitely not sentient.
 

Note: I am also not a turkey. Besides...who likes to eat turkeys? Pfft.

Now that sounds like something a turkey would say.

I am a er...SIR KEY. Yes, that is who I am. You must have heard me wrong. o-o

The only logical conclusion is that you are Spam. Yum, salty canned meat.

My family celebrates thanksgiving by sitting at the table, sharing something we are thankful for and eating until we have gained 2-3 pounds. We are going to have a chicken and a ham, mashed potatoes and grave, and pretty much the normal stuff.

Wow that's really nice! Although I'm a bit concered you and your family eats graves.

I usually head over to my aunt's home who lives 30-35 minutes away, spend time with my family, eat some food, watch some movies, and best of all, mercilessly pwn n00bs in Super Smash Bros.

I celebrate with chicken since I can't stand turkey (although one year I had Chinese food) and for dessert I have chocolate cake since love cake far more then pie.  Later I go to my neighbors house since they always have better food then I do. When I was younger my family would have this tradition where every year we would watch a Harry Potter movie, we're hoping to bring back that tradition this year with Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them

:o Oh, yeah, that movie is coming out! I want to watch it, but not sure when I'll have the time.

Well, I guess I just have the normal dinner, and family gathering except I'm a vegan, so...Tofurkey this year, and cranberries and stuff. XD owo

Yey. I'm thankful for finding dis site, and being able to read amazing-i-can't-even stories, and making *some* progress on meh stories. :3 , and meeting some really cool ppls. That and having straight A's, but more that ^^^ XD Oh, yeah, I'm going to see that movie Arrival. I love movies like Ender's Game and stuff like Arrival where they talk to aliens, and I love it when little children makes friends with monsters. Idk, it's just a favorite trope XD

>>Yus, mashed potatoes are very good. smol potato :3 << 

"Temmiespeak" is not an endearing accent. It stopped being endearing in 2006 or 7, when even the 12-year-olds who started it realised that using "teh" in place of "the" ironically was getting fucking old. It is only remotely respectable when you're trying to imitate the noises that a drunken Cockney makes and not the noises that a "RAWR XD" makes, no more, no less.

Well I'll be eating turkey, you freaks. That and blackaroni macaroni and cheese.

I may be a brown person, but I am also an American. I will celebrate the Giving of Thanks with a #E7A776 twist. I usually just sit around in my humble tagine shaped desert hut and eat tasty baklava with my fellow neighbors as we discuss each other's fez collections and goat raising skills.

Or maybe I just have a normal Thanksgiving with a lot of turkey gravy, who knows.

WAIT

BROWN

YOU'RE A JAWA?!

Fez collections!? As a man with an all-encompassing appreciation of soupcan-shaped headgear, I must express the highest disgust with your prejudiced assumptions about the glorious fez! Fezzes are a magnificent East-European/Middle-Eastern/Byzantine headpiece that were for everyone! The people on that weird island south of Greece wore fezzes! (And some still do, so Wikipedia tells me.) Everyone on the Mostly Non-Genghis side of Russia and the Slavic nations wore fezzes! The Sultan of the Ottomans knew fezzes were so awesome that he literally OUTLAWED OTHER COMMON FORMS OF HATWEAR!* (And one of the reasons was because it actually helped cultures merge together. Now Muslims had a hat that could compete with the bowlers and top hats and other fancy hats.) Just because some cartoonists in the 20s monsterised the fez as a headpiece that every non-English-Speaking foreigner wore.

Just because racist bastards thought that the fez what everyone east of Germany and South of France wore does not make the Fez a symbol of everyone darker-than-a-peach-crayon oppression! Fezzes have a long history of being worn by awesome people! George Washington, and the majority of the other Freemason presidents probably wore fezzes!  Almost every side in the Napoleonic War had soldiers with Fez-like helmets! The Badass Beard Man from Indiana Jones wore a fez! Alleged wizards wore fezzes! Fezzes are the fucking best! 

I mean, unless your friends and family actually have fez collection and that totally wasn't just a thing about how really old racists see brown people, because THAT WOULD ONLY BE AN INSULT TO THIS GLORIOUS HEADPIECE AND DISRESPECTFUL TO EVERY GROUP INVOLVED!

*Granted, everyone in 1925 started wearing fezzes, so Mustafa Kemal Ataturk banned them all because it was getting too mainstream. In truth, it was really a great separation between Fez and State. Now that the Ottoman Empire is disbanded, everyone is free to wear and not wear fezzes as they please. I think. I'm not sure if there's still fez laws in the area.

I think my dad had a fez, but he's Bruno Mars now, and his agent told him he had to take it off when he was singing about sexy ladies while being surrounded by sexy ladies. It's kind of a bummer, because the fez was my last link to my dying culture.

The desert winds still haunt me at night.

Goddamn it, I live in America, not Canada XD

Besides, I celebrated both. I mean...food. Why not?

For the purpose of a seasonal short story taking place in a canon parallel to the RPS shit, who of you would show up to the token furries' house for brunch on Thanksgiving? Duels are entirely optional. In fact, I'd prefer if you didn't duel me. I already have all the duels necessary for a few stories now, any more would be overkill.

It's related to this thread because the story answers all the questions in the OP, probably.

I would show up. Actually...first, is the food free?

Well, you don't have a choice in showing up, because you duelled me last!

But yes, it's free. You'll be able to prove to everyone you're not a turkey there, because if you were a turkey, that'd be cannibalism... And you're totally not a turkey, right?

I beat you! XD

And yep, I definitely am not a turkey. Er...there are other foods other than turkey right?

Yes, and I'm feeling very sassy about it.

Sure. Waffles. And Turkey Barbecue sauce. And Cheese. I mean, I wouldn't want to spoil the surprise, but all you really need to know is that we'll be eatng turkey, right?

I will not partake in the eating of my kind turkey.

He is a SIR KEY

Gobble gobble, fuckers.

?I'm thankful for friends. And my lady-friend. As for what I'm going to do, probably just gonna go hang out with some friends. Should be fun, I guess.

Jackbox! I will beat everyone at Fibbage ^-^
