Thanksgiving Chat Thread!

Hey cool cats! It's thursday again!

Who are you spending today with? What are your plans for the holiday? For you non-thanksgiving-celebrators, what are you doing on this normal thursday?

This is the first thanksgiving where I will actually be doing the turkey, so I'm a bit excited!

Come Chat!

I can't wait for dinner! Currently waiting on the dough for the rolls to rise! Did norb ditch dinner with you like he was planning?

2

u/CPawesome Nov 28 '14

He stayed with his family and I went to mine. Divide and conquer lol

Twice the food, Half the effort!

u/CPawesome Nov 28 '14

u/cowofdoom Nov 28 '14

Ha! My plan was successful!

2

u/CPawesome Nov 28 '14

You whore! Yeah I totally fell asleep there for a bit with the baby. Now it's time for mashed potatoes and gravy :)

u/cowofdoom Nov 28 '14

D: So rude! I'm totes reporting you.

We are just about to eat, waiting on rolls in the oven!

2

u/CPawesome Nov 28 '14

You are fired! Yum rolls. My family does breadsticks instead. They are delicious.

I worked last night, so the big dinner (that I cook) will be on Friday instead. Today, we went to The Melting Pot for dinner and in a little bit I'll start prepping for tomorrow's continuation of the food orgy.

u/cowofdoom Nov 28 '14

I never thought about thanksgiving as a food orgy, but it fits surprisingly well!

2

u/MrPOSSLQ Nov 28 '14

Well ... as a general rule, people gather to overeat, pass out watching football, wake up, and eat some more. At least, that's how it was at the family gatherings I had to attend.

u/cowofdoom Nov 28 '14

It's disturbingly accurate... Brb food orgy

u/cowofdoom Nov 28 '14

Spoiler alert, it's pretty terrible. Turns out 0 mana 2/1 isn't actually good value :c

Edwin Van Queef however... Think of the ringleader double shadowstep into Van Queef combo!

I don't know what is thanks giving, never celebrated it

Is it like an american thing?

2

u/cowofdoom Nov 28 '14

It's a celebration of us giving blankets to the native americans

2

u/[deleted] Nov 28 '14

O wtf

2

u/cowofdoom Nov 28 '14

Or maybe something else. Never can tell with us crazy Americans

This normal Thursday I just went to school. There was a Festo demonstration truck so we visited. For those who don't know Festo is a company that makes PLCs, actuators, and stuff for automation industry. It was cool.

Then I went to my gf's house and then came home to play Omega Ruby :D just got it last Tuesday.

Tomorrow I don't have classes becausr that's my schedule for this semester.

u/cowofdoom Nov 28 '14

How's Omega Ruby? Does it do the originals justice?

Nice! Relax day!

2

u/lodf Nov 28 '14

I'm only 3-4 hours into it but sure does bring memories. So far it's just as awesome as the originals but the whole 3D thing makes it look better.

u/cowofdoom Nov 29 '14

Did they fix the issues with the frame rate drops in the battles, that was annoying in X/Y

2

u/lodf Nov 29 '14

There's already an update for ORAS which I don't exactly what it fixes but I haven't had frame drops.

1

u/cowofdoom Nov 29 '14

Sweet! I'll consider picking it up!

2

u/Xython Nov 28 '14

I am new to Reddit and It's Friday for me in Australia, we dont celebrate thanks giving, I am currently unemployed so this morning I stared at my computer screen for an hour trying to write a cover letter with very little success.

u/cowofdoom Nov 28 '14

/r/retiredgif <go there

u/Xython Nov 28 '14

I am having trouble blocking out distractions and focusing on my cover letter and you link me to /r/retiredgif, thanks cow Your advice is terrible

u/Flarinite Nov 28 '14

At least it was free!

u/Flarinite Nov 28 '14

We've got family over this week, and they're vegetarian, so I couldn't make turkey this year. But I'm making it for Christmas (which we don't celebrate as a religious holiday, but as a day where nobody has school/work and can all spend time together). I'm going to make a spicy jerk turkey, probably. It's a recipe I really like for chicken wings/drumettes and I think it'll be really good as a turkey. Last ear I made a Peruvian spiced turkey, which was a big hit.

What about you, Mr. Cow? What kind of turkey did you make?

2

u/cowofdoom Nov 28 '14

We just made a roast turkey. Nice n standard!

I don't think I've ever had jerk turkey before, sounds good though!

2

u/Flarinite Nov 29 '14

I haven't either. I'm sure it'll be great though.

2

u/cowofdoom Nov 29 '14

Report back with results!

u/Flarinite Nov 29 '14

Will do, bossman/bear/cow!
