Aaaah Thanksgiving, sweet community with family and friends wins every time... in spite of sexism, commercialism and violence... sorry but the glass is half full. I focus on the "thanks" and "give".

I had a grad prof (whom, by the way, I did not care for at all) who made the case that American football is actually a ginormous (my word) sexual metaphor.

I must admit Thanksgiving food is some of my favorites, but I am 100% with you regarding football. There's 29 of us this year for Thanksgiving dinner, and I can already see all the guys crowded around the television. No thank you.
