Tonisha and I are heading to Detroit to hang out with family and friends, probably spend the week there. I always enjoy the D.
It's a trip a lot of people I know are like "ewww detroit is horrible", fuck that. Detroit is a great, I love that city.

-
Damn, Gigi's greens and Annies sweet potato pie... esch got me thinking about the food now. I can't wait!
-
Refreshing the Steam sale page.
-
Consume a large avian and unhealthy amounts of stuffing and then fall asleep on the couch watching Tony Romo do unspeakable things with a football.
-
Step son is with his dad this year, so my plan is going to my parents getting high and gaining 10 lbs so I have something to make a New Years resolution about.
-

That's awesome man! Kudos PD. Maybe I'll run into ya! ;)
-
Going to Atlanta to eat a shit ton of delicious food with friends. Probably gonna cook up about 5 cornish game hens, because fuck turkey.
-
Going to a friend's, drinking too much wine, and then watching my other friend's gigantic house in Carmel the rest of the weekend.
-
Going to Athens because Creepy Old Guy is coming down to Atlanta!
Naw, family meeting at my aunt and uncle's house there. To be honest, I'm not looking all that forward to it. Their house is too damn small for the amount of people who show up, drafty, and my mother and aunt are kosher health nuts, so the food is usually kind of...eh. Plus now we have a dog, who's gonna be sitting here all alone for a good 5-6 hours. :-\ We might hire a dog walker.
But on the bright side, I'm taking off 11/26-12/2. Coming back the following Tuesday is gonna be great- I get to avoid the shitstorm that's gonna hit on Monday when everyone returns back to work post-vacation and shit is all broken. :lol
-
Gonna get drunk as fuuuuuck.
-
Well the pharmacy job is 24/7 including holidays so I'm gonna be working the afternoon/evening. :gloomy Only a couple more years of that if I don't screw up schoolin'.
-
All day food and drink fest at my grandparents. Probably be drunk from Tuesday til Sunday

Are you a tech?
-
Tonisha and I
How am I just now noticing this? Typical black girl name. :lol
-
sadly it will be just me and a my family, everyone is fleeing this state. including a guy going to las vegas. which sounds kinda tragic on the surface.
I will of course make enough food for an entire month of eating regardless.
-
Honestly I have NO idea what I'm doing. I'll be in Seattle, but unlike last year I won't be with my family to celebrate. Might end up whoring around.

75% off as a (back) door buster deal.
-
Oh I guess I'm cancelling thanksgiving and will be driving to seattle.
-
You really should! I will take you out, feed you, and promise not to rape you.
-
sorry, I'm only allowed to travel away from my wife on the premise that I will be raped by men.
-
I proposed sleeping all day and ordering Chinese food. That didn't go over too well but I think they'll come around by Tuesday
-
Huff I just do the photo lab and various other miscellaneous things.
-
Eat a lot of food with my crazy Italian family
-
Waiting out black Friday lines to avoid family functions. Totally worth it. Then playing a lot of Xbox one.
-
Dinner and drinks with Shaka, Prole, White Man and MAF tomorrow night. :rock
-
Just another day, in th' Nihonz.
I did go to a pub and spend too much money that I shouldn't have spent on a plate of turkey, potatoes, stuffing, and gravy.
It was soooo good.
-
Having a whole week off. :aah
-
I've got a half day on Wednesday, then off Thursday through Sunday.

How much beer do you expect you'll go through over the break?
-
fuck all of you norms and white collar shitheads, not only will I be working on Thanksgiving I will be and have been busting my ASS to make sure at least 80 families have good food for Thanksgiving...
-
Drew works at walmart?
-
Drew, I will think of you when I'm eating my pumpkin cheesecake on Thursday
(no I won't)
-
Pumpkin cheesecake tho holy shit :noah
I need to make this dessert happen :noah
I use DIS RACIS recipe
http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/paula-deen/pumpkin-cheesecake-recipe/index.html
Fuck putting it in springform pans, tho- I'm too lazy for that shit. A graham cracker pie crust will suffice. If anyone tries to give you shit about it being in a pie crust, tell them they don't get a piece, that will shut them the fuck up.

Three or four on Thanksgiving day, and maybe one or two on Friday and Saturday. Not a ton.

Thanks breh, here's your $1 tip.
:mynicca

Since I'm a loser, my Thanksgiving is going to be this:
- At work catching up on shit. Since I have the day after off, I can really get caught up on things.
- Play more Mario 3D World
- Pornography...of course

Taking advantage of any backpage.com deals?
:uguu
-
Nope. I'm still too scared about getting caught.
-
tip? HA I wish. the closest I've gotten to a tip was when a millionaire ordered a sammich and gave a 50 to the person that handed it to them, which got split between five cooks...
-

Well, good on you for helping other families during this time of year in particular.
You might want to work on that whole "holiday spirit" thing.
-
it was early right before i was heading off to work, had a horrible last week, and reading that fistful is taking a month's probably paid vacation rubbed me wrong.
in other words 0/10 would not make that post again
-
gf's family and my family meeting for the first time. fml, gonna be in the back with football and booze.
on the plus side it's also chanukah so there will be thanksgiving shit and latkes
-
I'm going to my parents house and gorging on halal turkey. Black Friday is actually my birthday but I don't really feel like buying anything.
Also feeling super anxious about grad applications due a couple days later but I don't want to volunteer or do any charity which usually makes me feel really good since everywhere is swamped with volunteers this time of year. I am buying weed tomorrow though woohoo!
-
I've no fucking idea whats happening right now. Last year I was called the day before and asked to make everything. This year no one is calling us to figure out what we need or when/if we'll even meet. If no plans are made in a little while I'll be going to Fresno and spending it with my grandfather and go visit my father. Screw this last minute shit!
The misses is making pies though so there's a positive somewhere here.
-
My aunt is having a thanksgiving dinner (her excuse is that she now has an American granddaughter) but I'm gonna be at work :tocry, I could take the day off but I'm planning on using my two remaining days on the 23 and 30 of december(that way I get three days off each week :rejoice)
-
Worked two days this week and now I'm done until Monday. :rock
Just made some homemade BBQ sauce for some leftover pulled pork we had. :drool
My mini-me and I are playing hooky tomorrow to play and watch Disney Princess movies and dance to silly music and bake and prep food for Thanksgiving. Girls day :rock
Thanksgiving with my parents on Thursday, then our own little Thanksgiving on Saturday to give thanks that we don't have to go to my in-laws or see any other psycho family. I used to dislike this holiday but now I love it. I get paid time off to cook good food? And hang out with people I like? And avoid people I don't? And I don't have to buy any gifts?! Best holiday!
-
Worked two days this week and now I'm done until Monday. :rock
same
life is awesome :aah
-
Stayed overnight at my work to get today off and I don't have work till monday :rejoice I feel like a goddamn american.
-
Today, I'm going to:
-Play some PS3 games
-Eat a meal with family
-Play some PS3 games
-Take a nap
-Play some PS3 games
In that order.
-
Since I'll probably wont be able to drink or eat a proper food for a couple of days I'm gonna eat and drink like a goddamn animal at my aunt's party :whew
-
Had a nice time in Detroit earlier in the morning. Helped feed some homeless folks at my grandma's old church. Most were middle aged guys, but there were a couple families with small kids
:tocry
-
I got into an argument with my brother-in-law about poor people that don't work and get supported by the government.

Dumb. Why not be more product and get into Facebook arguments instead
-
I didn't intend to! All that turkey and stuffing made me lightheaded and I forgot that I wanted to not talk about politics! Well, it wasn't much anyway and it didn't last that long, so whatever.

THANKSGIVING
I hurt myself today
Ate 'til I couldn't feel
I focused on the breast
The only thing that's real
Grean bean casserole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember deviled eggs
[Chorus:]
What have I become
My sweetest pie
Every calorie goes straight away
In my end
And you could have it all
My empire of bird
Stuffing let you down
Turkey make you hurt
I wear this crown of bones
Upon my glutton's chair
Full of mashed 'tatoes
I cannot repair
Beneath the cranberries
The feelings disappear
Everyone is done
I am still right here
[Chorus:]
What have I become
My sweetest pie
Every calorie goes straight away
To my end
And you could have it all
My empire of bird
Stuffing let you down
Turkey make you hurt
If I could eat again
A million miles away
I would pace myself
I would find gravy

Thank god I'm black, thus 95% of my relatives are firmly established in the plantation of liberalism. The other 5% of them are "the Jews did it" conspiracy theorists.

Went over to my grandma's today. Finally learned the secrets of her mashed potatoes. Made them with her guidance. Shit should be stellar.

estrogen laden foods will turn you into something like that beta male above, very fitting spokesperson.
had a great Thanksgiving, it was low key, but nice.

Had a traditional thanksgiving last year but it was all Bengali today.
Goat biryani, tuna fish kabab, potato chops, shingara. We did have apple pie doe, so we're not on the watchlist yet! And the cake's still in the fridge. :drool
-
Just had a living-room-to-living-room video chat with my US family, all of whom are gathered at my sister's for T-day. Pretty awesome.
20 years ago, the first time I lived in Japan, the Internet was not in widespread use, so no e-mail; postal letters cost a buck to send, and took 9 days to arrive; there was no voice chat back then either, and a phone call was about a buck a minute.
Now I can video chat for free whenever; it helps bridge the gap, for certain.

Here's what we ate.
Stuffing, fried ham with tarragon mustard, mashed potatoes with short rib marinade reduction gravy, candied yams and short ribs. :drool
-
They need to rename this holiday to Shamefest.
I'm so fucking full right now and I haven't eaten anything since 6pm.
-
ha, about to go to the fridge for some midnight thirds :drool
-
I got hammered and made out with my host/friend, passed out, and now I'm eating pumpkin pie on my inflatable bed. I need a 3 hour nap before I start packing at 6 am to catch my early flight. If nothing bad happens it's going to be a miracle.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

Something tells me that this is not a euphemism, though it certainly should be!

got to hang with my youngest brother who i never get to see because his wife is a bitch. was pretty to cool to see him but goddam he speaks 5 octaves higher than anyone around.
both step sisters are preggos which makes for fun listening to them bitch and watching their husbands squirm.
my parents insist on watching that thanksgiving parade in new york. i would rather watch football first. and i would rather stare at a wall for 2 hours than watching football....i think i excused myself 20 times just to get away from it....must have smoked most of a pack of cigs. :-\

And yeah we stole an American tradition but honestly setting a date for the family to get together and thank their gods of choice for all the good things that had happened to them that year is a pretty good idea :obama

About to have that first leftover plate, brehs.
Also, someone left a basically full bottle of Bulleit Rye at my hosts yesterday and they're all, "uh, we don't drink bourbon" and I was all "daddy is here for you."

i did this and played The Secret World
After everyone else went and took a nap, I put the Cowboys on the TV, MST3K on my computer, and played Zelda on my 3DS. It was pretty glorious.
