they'll have some tofurkey.

Are you kidding Nick?! I'm a vegetarian and I LOVE thanksgiving! It's like the closest to being a vegetarian holiday than anything can be. One bird and
10 vegetable sides! LOVE it!

Turkey hoagies this year! I couldn't be more excited. It's the first year I can sit down with my wine and watch the Thanksgiving parade!
I am making stuffing and an apple pie though, but I'm making that shit tomorrow. Weds. I am the most worried about my beer pong partner! |

usually, yes, although it has varied. This year, we're flying to FL on Thursday, should arrive around noon. Will be finding a grocery store, making turkery
sandwiches and finding some pumpkin pie. All to be eaten on the beach. Totally looking forward to it..

I don't. There is no reason for the existance of Thanksgiving. People should be thankful every day, and turkey, filling, and cranberry sauce are garbage so
really there is no reason make a meal out of the whole mess.

i don't really care much about Thanksgiving. I don't have family all like that, i don't like typical Thanksgiving food, and all my friends are busy
doing family stuff so i don't bother with them. My best friend invited me over to her house, but i don't want to be around a lot of people. I'll
probably watch whatever movies i need to get to and clean up my room or something

Now that's all we get. I used to be a huge wino and had everything under the sun on my rack. I still will buy different kinds on occasion, but it's really a matter of taste. |

One of my best friends doesn't partake in it, though I don't really know why since they're a really traditional family in almost every other way.
She and her sister go to Disneyland every Thanksgiving

About every 2 or 3 years we end up having Italian food instead of the typical turkey Thanksgiving meal.

this year we're having a "non-traditional" thanksgiving. none of my extended family is traveling this year, so it's just me, Sofia, my sister
& my folks. We're probably going to have a roast with mashed potatoes, greens and lots of desserts. I don't understand why we haven't done it
before, but I'm actually excited about this one. I don't normally like turkey anyway unless I can get it fried: then it's pretty good, but
otherwise, I'll pass
