I just wanted to wish everyone here a HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

I know some here are not from the U.S. and I don't know if that is something you celebrate, but if not...enjoy the weekend!!

(try to get everyone)

Sorry but what the fudge is thanksgiving? Ive heard its when we went over to america and took it from the rightful owners of the land by raping and killing them. If it is pretty much what I just said, is that really something to celebrate :?:

Basically, it is a made-up holiday to further the propaganda that the US was created by the Pilgrams. The Pilgrims had some beliefs (but believe me, not all of them) that are more compatible with our modern philosophies, versus the actual founding principles which came from the Quakers.

EDIT: And yes, Halloween is awesome :) My favorite holiday

Although the story of my name is basically random (see the "where did your name come from?" thread), it did happen to work out nicely like that :)
