Thanksgiving is coming in the U.S......

[Saturos]

and that means people need their pecans for their pecan pies. Easy $150 bucks and OB, here I come.:naughty: Just a thought, but what and when are the Thanksgiving equivalents in other countries. I'd like to know.:upstare:

 

[Wanted Bob]

Off Topic: I heard that deep-fried turkies are big in the U.S. and a lot of houses burn down cause of that.

On Topic: We celebrate thanksgiving all the same here in Canada.

 

[Jintor]

Thanksgiving means the Nick USA is showing a ****ing SPONGEBOB MARATHON instead of the ****ing DAY OF BLACK SUN.

DAMN YOU THANKSGIVING! DAMN YOU TO HELLLllLLlLLL!

 

[Qonfused]

Thanksgiving? I thought it was Christmas.

yeah, a BIG opportunity for some spongebob marathon. BTW: Can we just put that whole political argument thing behind us in case you were offended? I don't like who I am when I post there. Political discussion is evil. Bad Karma. Never again will I post there.

 

[Jintor]

It's cool. Just... don't do it again.

 

[Saturos]

I like pecans. It makes money for me from thousands of saps that like to make pecan pies on these types of holidays so I can buy hardware and games. Pie is good, but money is better in my case. What is Thanksgiving in Australia like? Is it during the same month as in the U.S.?

 

[Jintor]

We don't have it. :/

Well not really. Not even a public holiday on Thanksgiving.

 

[Krynn72]

Last year my mom came down for the week and cooked me and my friends a sweet dinner. This year, ill probably just order out

 

[Raziaar]

This stupid holiday gives me too much temptation to stuff myself.

You poor thing.*hug* I live in Florida too you know. Since I have such a large family, we usually have so much leftovers from both Christmas and Thanksgiving that we are stuffed sick, and would rather not look at such a vast amount of food for a very long time. (idea?):naughty:

 

[Irksome]

Thanksgiving to me means only 2 weeks left in my semester and than a month and a half off. WOOT.

:thumbs:

 

[Anthraxxx]

Thanksgiving also means.... Black Friday. An infamous day when women turn into vicious beasts that will tear your heart out with their bare hands on a whim...

 

[lePobz]

We don't 'do' thanksgiving in the UK. We don't know where you crazy Americans got it from.

 

[Ennui]

I believe it originated sometime before we overthrew your tyrannical rule.

Wid dem Injuns or somethin'.

On topic, I ****ing love pecan pie.

Krynn, I know the feeling. It's ok My mother lives 6 hours away, so I can't really visit her often. I might go to my fathers for dinner...

If you know someone in your family who can make lots, and lots of pecan pie, you wanna buy several hundred pounds worth of pecans from me? I need a new processor upgrade.:E

[Majestic XII]

No thanksgiving in Sweden, but I wouldnt be surprised to see it here soon. You americans are good at exporting holidays

 

[Lucid]

Mmm... thanksgiving.
:smoking:

 

[Darkside55]

I hate Thanksgiving. I enjoy getting together with family, but I hate Thanksgiving dishes aside from a few things my family makes like macaroni and cheese. I usually just sit around eating chips and rolls the whole night long because those're the only things I like. This year, with my family coming over to MY house, f*ck turkey and ham, I'm making burgers.

Also I hate pecans.

You wouldn't if your family owned the trees. Harvesting pecans is a good way to make a quick buck during this season here in the U.S.:E Then you could use that extra dough to buy all the burgers you need for your Thanksgiving bash. Unless you have a better way to make easy change where you live that is.

 

[Darkside55]

Let me rephrase: I hate eating pecans. I wouldn't mind any money gained from them, but I certainly hate eating the things. The taste, the texture...h8.

How can you not like turkey and ham

And stuffing and mashed potatoes...mmmmm....

**** macaroni and cheese, I can make that shit in the microwave any day of the year

 

[kirovman]

We do not celebrate Thanksgiving in the UK, because showing gratitude is strictly forbidden by the Green Cross Code.

 

[Stigmata]

The Green Cross Code is a brand created by the UK National Road Safety Committee (now the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents, RoSPA) to raise awareness of pedestrian road safety in the UK.

Buh? D:

 

[Rapstah]

What's celebrated when you celebrate Thanksgiving apart from giving thanks?

 

[kirovman]

Buh? D:

I have to confess... I lied. There is no relationship between the Green Cross Code and the lack of Thanksgiving.

In truth we don't celebrate thanksgiving, because we feel that we have nothing to be thankful for. We're very bitter.

Yeah but microwave or box macaroni and cheese is crap in comparison to homemade. Mashed potatoes I can go for, stuffing I don't like either.

And I like turkey and ham in, say, sandwiches. I just hate oven roasted turkey and glazed ham. Glazed ham gives me a headache, it never fails.

Homemade macaroni is pretty amazing, I must admit.

I usually use the leftover turkey from Thanksgiving to make huge turkey sandwiches for days after

 

[Darkside55]

Yeah, that's usually what happens. That's the only time I'll eat Thanksgiving turkey, but I still don't prefer it to deli turkey.

 

[kirovman]

Since we don't get Thanksgiving here, I'll have to eat Turkey dinner at Xmas. They've been selling the Turkeys since August, its quite weird.

 

[Tollbooth Willie]

Turkey makes me shit a watery grave.

Watery lol. Water.

 

[Taboo]

I think it would be pretty strange if the UK and Australia were celebrating the indians and pilgrims mutual feast at Plymouth Rock.

Christ, werent you people brainwashed through kindergarten Thanksgiving plays? Where is education going these days?

 

[DreamThrall]

I'm pretty sure the US has a monopoly on holidays celebrating cooperation with people we've subsequently slaughtered.

Actaully, some would argue that Thanksgiving nowadays is just a corporate marketing scheme to make more money since it's the time of the year when Americans like to engorge themselves on Thanksgiving dishes, just like other major holidays. With all the money to be made, I wouldn't be surprised if I hear the day when the UK or Australia started celebrating Thanksgiving for some lame reason. Or better yet, the scheming could get really corny and officials could declare Thankgiving in other countries in rememberance to the U.S.'s pilgrim/settler, and injun feast that occured before the declaration of Independence which in no way has anything to do with the UK or Australia. Yes, that would be corny indeed. Thanks Taboo. The joke's on me, though I wouldn't be surprised if America started exporting this cashcow holiday to other countries. The U.S. Federal Bank coffers are drying up fast you know, and besides:

and that means people need their pecans for their pecan pies. Easy $150 bucks and OB, here I come.:naughty: Just a thought, but what and when are the Thanksgiving equivalents in other countries. I'd like to know.:upstare:

I never said exactly said Thanksgiving, I was just curious if other countries had an excuse to indulge during one day of the year is what I meant to say.
