Ironically I love Thanksgiving and almost everything about it. However have you ever heard the saying everything false has a sliver of truth? Well, that may be true for the items in this post too.
Instead of doing a cliché blog on all of the things you already agree with I thought I'd offer a different interpretation on one of the best holidays around. Go!
Turkey Pardoning
It has become a tradition since 1989 with President George H.W Busch to present a presidential turkey pardon to one lucky bird. What about all of the other poor guys?
Watching Football
Honestly what makes a better turkey tradition than a quintessential American pastime. Don't you watch it every Saturday afternoon and Monday night? Doesn't sound like a special occasion to me.
Cleaning
The folks are coming over and you have to pretend you live like this all year round.
Marshmallow Yams
I Just puked in my mouth a little bit. Give me a beer?
Falling Asleep Before 8PM
That turkey just took the wind out of you. I think the bird just called you a chicken!
Leftovers
Probably by far the best of all. You get to eat your crappy cooking all over again!
Cleaning Up the Fallen Leaves
Oh my gosh there are literally thousands of them. Add leaf blower to the Christmas list, check!
Pumpkin Pie
Mmmm, 800 calories later.
Egg Nog
'Tis almost the season to be jolly.
Skipping the Darn Turkey and Going to Cheers
What if you don't feel like turkey on a Thursday? Didn't you have it for lunch on Monday?
Happy Thanksgiving Everybody!
Nobody home to eat with? Cheers to You has got you covered. Come on over and see us.
