Im glad we don't have thanksgiving in Germany tbh
"How do you say Thanksgiving in German? Danksagung?"

"No, it's still just Thanksgiving. Possibly with an accent. Pretty sure."

"No, it's stupid fat American day"

-Actual conversation I had with two university German students (one of which is my brother)

It's Erntedankfest but we don't celebrate it that much nowadays. You might still find in the rural areas.

Funky, my minimum price to eat the snotty xenomorph egg is $1,000. Trab says she wouldn't do it for any price because she'd die.

I don't like thanksgiving and I'm always so happy when it's over

christmas is better

I feel similarly about christmas but less direct. It brings my family together and reminds me of why I have to keep them at arms length. (that their religion prevents them from accepting how id want to be)

Halloween is quickly becoming my favorite. Not nationalistic or religious (well Christian religious) at all.
 
Funky's meal looks delicious!

I ate processed chicken offal last night because I worked so late and my partner thinks adding Thai sugar chile sauce from a bottle to the above is cooking.

Could be worse, I guess.

Thanksgiving just seems like an increasingly wrong thing to celebrate ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Also I don't like the food

Thanksgiving itself seems fine to celebrate, The generation that originated it weren't the perpetrators of the atrocities that would come a century later. It was the first few generations born stateside that lost respect for the native peoples. Two cultures coming together is very much worth celebrating imo.

With respect to Christmas I'm not religious at all but I like the seasonal decorations and songs and and the whole theme of it and find the whole thing to be fun ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Like from what I can tell Dead Rising 4 is christmas themed, and I just love that

But it does seem weird to jump at the chance to celebrate Thanksgiving and then drag our heels whenever someone mentions the ensuing awfulness that followed. I wonder how 1800s Thanksgivings went.
