What are you thankful for?

[Ello Sailor]

I am thankful for Tree's God-given drum chops.

You think you're joking but you really have no idea. That's not a brag.

[Ello Sailor]

You think you're joking

Oh, I know I'm joking.

[lennytheweedwhacker]

I am not thankful for Belle and Sebastian

Go get bent.

[tree_]

You think you're joking

Oh, I know I'm joking.

I forgive you, in all your naivety and am thankful for you still. It's that time of year.

[dad]

I am not thankful for Belle and Sebastian

You think you're joking

Oh, I know I'm joking.

I forgive you, in all your naivety and am thankful for you still. It's that time of year.

There is a wolf in me . . . fangs pointed for tearing gashes . . . a red tongue for raw meat . . . and the hot lapping of blood—I keep this wolf because the wilderness gave it to me and the wilderness will not let it go.

There is a fox in me . . . a silver-gray fox . . . I sniff and guess . . . I pick things out of the wind and air . . . I nose in the dark night and take sleepers and eat them and hide the feathers . . . I circle and loop and double-cross.

There is a hog in me . . . a snout and a belly . . . a machinery for eating and grunting . . . a machinery for sleeping satisfied in the sun—I got this too from the wilderness and the wilderness will not let it go.

There is a fish in me . . . I know I came from salt-blue water-gates . . . I scurried with shoals of herring . . . I blew waterspouts with porpoises . . . before land was . . . before the water went down . . . before Noah . . . before the first chapter of Genesis.

There is a baboon in me . . . clambering-clawed . . . dog-faced . . . yawping a galoot's hunger . . . hairy under the armpits . . . here are the hawk-eyed hankering men . . . here are the blonde and blue-eyed women . . . here they hide curled asleep waiting . . . ready to snarl and kill . . . ready to sing and give milk . . . waiting—I keep the baboon because the wilderness says so.

There is an eagle in me and a mockingbird . . . and the eagle flies among the Rocky Mountains of my dreams and fights among the Sierra crags of what I want . . . and the mockingbird warbles in the early forenoon before the dew is gone, warbles in the underbrush of my Chattanoogas of hope, gushes over the blue Ozark foothills of my wishes—And I got the eagle and the mockingbird from the wilderness.

O, I got a zoo, I got a menagerie, inside my ribs, under my bony head, under my red-valve heart—and I got something else: it is a man-child heart, a woman-child heart: it is a father and mother and lover: it came from God-Knows-Where: it is going to God-Knows-Where—For I am the keeper of the zoo: I say yes and no: I sing and kill and work: I am a pal of the world: I came from the wilderness.

I think he meant his own dad and dad’s kids since he capitalized it. Which means trag is grateful for trag.

Bought a 21 lb turkey a few weeks back in anticipation of annually hosting Thanksgiving.

Wife’s youngest sister’s family opting to visit her husband’s mom now instead of Xmas because of air fare.
Wife’s other sister’s family visiting her husband’s parents because the dad has dementia.
My sister’s family staying home because her mother-in-law died last month and the father-in-law would otherwise be alone.
My parents not coming because my sister isn’t and she is 40 minutes from them and I’m 3.5 hours.
Wife’s parents not coming because they’re still afraid of Covid.

No one is coming. It’s like 2020 all over again. All the sisters have legitimate reasons, but I’m pretty bitters about our parents.

I’m thankful for my little family tho. We’ll make the best of it.

[lennytheweedwhacker]

I'm sorry, twat.

[daft twat]

I'm sorry, twat.

Nothing to be sorry about, Lenny. I’ve got the family I made, and we’re going to watch soccer and football and eat a Thanksgiving meal and play Mario kart together. I’m genuinely so thankful I have them.
