A problem of immense proportions

Postby Hegemon » Wed Nov 22, 2006 5:21 pm

So the real Thanksgiving is taking place this week. As most of you know, I am a resident of America Jr. and as a consequence, not only am I not having a Thanksgiving right now, but when we do have it, it doesn't seem to be as huge a deal as it is in the US. Which leads me to the problem...

NO ONE INVITED ME TO THANKSGIVING!!! I am your beloved PWEBtator for life, and not a single one of you invited me over to eat your food, drink your drink and watch your tv...

I can forgive it this time, but please don't allow this oversight to occur again.

And there will come a time, you'll see, with no more tears.
And love will not break your heart, but dismiss your fears.
Get over your hill and see what you find there,
With grace in your heart and flowers in your hair.

Forgive me, but we don't have any room at our house! We're having my two cousins and their husbands, one of them has a child, plus my dad's cousin and his wife, and possibly a boyfriend of my sister. That's... 12 people. Consider yourself lucky that you don't have to deal with them.
Step one, take off your shirt. Step two ... Step three, PROFIT!

My Thanksgiving dinner is going to be Scotch. I have a ten-hour shift waiting tables at the cracker Barrel, and then I will indulge my Thanksgiving tradition of drinking copius amounts of Scotch with someone I shouldn't be drinking with. The someone changes every year, but the Scotch is the same.

Oh dang. Is John wandering around, muttering to himself again? Someone, get him some clothes.
The Makeout Hobo is real, and does indeed travel around the country in his van and make out with ladies... If you meet him, it is customary to greet him with a shot of whiskey and a high five (if you are a dude) or passionate makeouts (if you are a lady).

Anyways, this thread is about ME and MY MOOCHING, so don't go derailing it :P

I have a new one since you broke the last one... you will notice that this one is pointier.

Only about 40% of them are actually senile.

The dementia unit is where the extreme senility and, well, dementia go.

John, you can join us. It's just the 3 of us and we're having a mini dinner. Game hens, mini golden yukons, pearl onions, two-bite pumpkin tarts. It'll be great!

That sounds great. Because of Tyler, you even have a mini-person!!! :D

On a side note, what is a mini golden yukon?

Our family doesn't celebrate until tomorrow. So this is plenty of notice, right? 24 hours? I plan on seeing you in Columbus. :) I would've invited you earlier but I thought with all your mod-god powers you might be too busy to come.

edit: oh, and I made pumpkin bread, so if you come tomorrow, that counts as me making you food! Then maybe you'll stop whining. ;)

Well, John was just the most gracious dinner guest at Thanksgiving! He brought lovely flowers, cleaned his plate, and made very interesting conversation. In fact, he even did the dishes after dinner!! Isn't that great?

You're right.....he didn't come. After being so kind to invite him, he didn't show up! The nerve!

He probably knew I'd require him to wear clothes. ;)
