So how do you folks normally consume the cooked carcass of Meleagridinae gallopavo? I've has deep fried (peanut oil) and it's not really greasy (not very greasy at all in fact) but the flavor was awesome.

We use an oven like most families. Do you live in the south where they deep fry everything including their faces?

I like that it is called Turkey Day instead of "Thanksgiving".
What a fucking sarcastic holiday.
"Thanks for so graciously handing over all this land!"
"Thanks again!"
"Now let's get drunk and stuff ourselves with enough food to feed a Third World family for two months."
"Haw Haw Haw!"
I hope there's a big terrorism thingie on the
22nd.
Super fun if they Anthrax the turkey. Or just pretend to.

Canadian Thanksgiving is better than American. There's less pressure, less family tension. There's still two months to go before Christmas, when all the hardcore stuff happens. It's pretty laid-back as far as holidays go.

i think its silly to try and guess whether one national thanksgiving is more laid back than another? it depends on who you celebrate it with

I like your angle.
But Canada has less "Imperial Guilt" than US.
Less emotional/intellectual load.
Nunavut
Fuckin' noble-ass Canucks.

#2 on my list of stupid days to watch the family wish they weren't related.

Tingly - no idea what that thing is, but I like garlic anyhoo
Daryl - I don't feel any pressure. Maybe because I don't hardly cook anything, but still. Plus, the fam getting together is pretty awesome at least in my family. Fun times, fun times. And no alcohol involved either...........
With no malice intended, could it be because of your 'orientation' that there's tension in your family during those times?
Redeye - I have no imperial guilt at all. Fucking Indians needed to get with the times or get their asses kicked. Besides, I live 10 minutes from the Yavapai reservation (Megatron stalker watch uhoh) and the damn casinos they have keep them in new cars every year, so fuck 'em. Without the "white man's imperialism" their asses would still be pillagin' and rapin' each other.
God Bless America! Let freedom ring! (or the slot machines, whichever you prefer)
Besides, what other country do you know of that gives a conquered people their own governing body? Hell, the Australians gave the Aborigines (spelling?) the shittiest land on the continent. Indians should be lucky we didn't just make them assimilate or GTFO

uh...we did give the indians the shittiest land out there and try to force them to conform dude...
and thanksgiving for my family - guilt, stupidity, no alcohol, and definitely not a fun time.

Guilt nothing, they introduced us to Tobacco.
Thanks, and addictive cancer causing weed that doesn't even get me high.

At least my family gets drunk on T-day.
Jug of wine, some beers.
Not like we used to.
Now the 2nd jug doesn't even get opened.
Might be different this year.
Going to be hanging out with the family of my brothers girlfriend.
Trailer folks!
Yay!
They're all stoners!
Wooo!
It'll be really awkward because I have no interest in sitting around getting stoned/talking to them.
I come here to be a dullard, and that's enough.
I don't want to be trapped in my brothers/gfs apartment as they "serruptitiously" retire to the back room (over and over) for a few minutes and cough a lot.
Oh god how I dread this.
I think I'll have plenty of wine.
