Of what? The ability to eat turkey? Or the ability to not have sex by reciting song lyrics?
-------------------- Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

No need to get uppity. I was just curious what people were having for Thanksgiving. Also I wasn't trying to exclude non-Americans. In fact, I thought it might be interesting to hear what sensible meals you lot were consuming on a day when we yanks were so unappologetically cramming our pie-holes with Turkey and stuffing. I suppose it might have been more interesting to find out what all we were thankful for, but then maybe that'd getting into the dodgy region of too-friendliness like the lyrics thread.
On the subject of buy nothing day, it was painful, but I resisted the urge to go and buy things at the Fry's Electronics one day sale. Highlights from the ad included DVD recorders US$199, stylin' tower ATX case with 450W PS $9.99 and free walkie-talkies (with built-in flashlights). Although I'm not really sure why you'd need a flashlight on a walkie-talkie. So I am a bad consumer and I have not shopped.

I lost a card game (no, not an interesting one), and did the usual holiday things, such as toddler-entertaining and pie-eating.
And I went to work.
Time and a half!
At work I finished the first essay, "On the Ontology of Mystery" (or is it "On the Mystery of Ontology?") in The Philosophy of Existentialism by Gabriel Marcel. Isn't everyone, especially Liam, enthused? I also did some Photoshoppery.

I think we have a potential competitor to "what songs do people want to write all the lyrics out for" in the Most Pointless and Retarded Thread possible.
Do something about it, Humor Boy.
Also, I ate pizza. I am like the eye at the center of the whirlpool of hope.
