I’ve never been a big fan of Thanksgiving anyway because it became a crappy family gathering for me when I got to high school (when I began to realize they’re psychopaths and selfish). Throw in a horrible election which probably won’t have any decent, conclusive ending given the American Taliban being sore losers. If you didn’t see the recent news, a bunch of MAGAts tried to run off the opposition’s bus with their trucks/SUVs decked out like ISIS terrorists. This was in my backyard on a stretch of I-35 near Austin. There’s a good chance a couple of those assholes were cops Boss Hogg gave the day off.
Anyway, other than a couple extra days off from work (or getting time and a half to cover them), Thanksgiving sucks ass. Americans aren’t really thankful, we just like excuses to stuff our faces. Their willingness to be abused by the airlines continue to baffle me too. Maybe the pandemic will put the kibosh on the ridiculous traditions because the author of Apollo’s Arrow thinks we’re still going to be practicing social distancing, etc. all the way through 2022 and this is even if we have a vaccine. Oy vey! Maybe this month’s header will get recycled a couple more years!
