[TK Wolf]

You're all invited to a mini-smashfest at my place this Wednesday evening. :D
There will be Melee, Guilty Gear, Brawl if enough people ask for it, and possibly Rock Band and Tetris Attack.

[Miharu]

Bailing on that.

Got a psych exam that night then going out with old hs friends

 

[TK Wolf]

Darn, I wanted you to school me in melee again. I've been practicing so I can put up a decent fight next time. I'll probably have a second one on saturday or sunday.

 

[pockyD]

do other people really not spend thanksgiving with their families

 

[Miharu]

what's this "family" you speak of?

 

[NeighborhoodP]

****, it really is hard to believe other people are different from you!

 

[TK Wolf]

Thanksgiving is Thursday, not Wednesday. Also, my family is on the east coast.

 

[Naota21t]

other women loving asian women is true. i've heard of many instances.

i'll go to sunnyvale and school you in melee. if i can get a ride there, or if i take caltrain or something.

hydrokirby can't FULL HOP neutral-air like me.

 

[SuperRad]

full hop nairing with fox is hard, i can't do it

If you go to caltrain, I can pick you up from the station. It's a bit long for a walk. What town are you in anyway?

 

[pockyD]

****, it really is hard to believe other people are different from you!

this isn't just a "he likes to eat deer meat, i don't" type confusion; thanksgiving is a national holiday where people are given TWO days off (the only holiday in the year like this) so they can travel to be with their families. it's far more of an aberration when people DON'T do it than when they DO

Thanksgiving is Thursday, not Wednesday. Also, my family is on the east coast.

mine as well

 

[NeighborhoodP]

it's not really surprising at all considering ages 17-21, give or take a few years, is the time in someone's life where they're least likely to WANT to be with their families. hopefully the reason why are obvious.

 

[pockyD]

sure it's surprising

in my college years, i went home every year except one (i was going to drive home and my car broke down the day before). that weekend, there were only 3 people left (including me) in the entire dorm. all my friends went home every year too.

 

[NeighborhoodP]

so basically your post was:

"sure it's surprising

[personal anecdote]"

honestly, thanksgiving is ONE day. good for you if you love your family and love spending time with them, but most people in that age bracket are going to want to do other **** on the other days. like the dude said, thanksgiving is thursday, not wednesday. i'm pretty sure you're never going to see people congregate to do whatever on thursday, but wednesday, friday (if not so much because of black friday), saturday and sunday are all fair game.

 

[pockyD]

"sure it's surprising

[personal anecdote]"

Why yes, my post was "Yes I'm surprised. I'm surprised because my experience says otherwise." How was that irrational?

...and like he said, his family is on the EC. I was already aware he doesn't live with his parents, so it's fairly intuitive that if you are traveling cross-country just for the sake of thanksgiving (which I am), you are going to be there for more than one day

 

[Miztik]

Thanksgiving *****

hella food

and Guaranteed Cowboy's Game on TV

 

[pockyD]

...unless for some stupid reason, the nfl network gets the game...

...and you end up watching it in danish...

...even though it turns out it was largely available for free on nfl.com...

...but at least they whupped up on the packers...

 

[Miztik]

ah yea i hated when that happened...

when the cowboys play the ravens its on a saturday NFL network only

 

[NeighborhoodP]

10charrrrrrr

 

[Miztik]

p i think that post was for post count as is this one lol

 

[NeighborhoodP]

nah i typed out a response to pocky but the whole thing was stupid so i stopped myself from continuing the stupidity

 

[pockyD]

well in short, "surprising" means it surprises me.

whether it's "weird" or out of place for most people is irrelevant; all that matters when determining whether something is "surprising" is whether I am surprised by it

 

[NeighborhoodP]

but apparently that didn't stop him

 

[TK Wolf]

I like going home, but I don't fly to the east coast unless I'm gonna be there for at least a week. Otherwise there's too much time spent traveling and in traffic. So I'd have to use vacation days that I don't have, because I'm using everything I have left for the end of December. (I only get 12 days off per year)

Anyway, I picked Wednesday because I figured many people live in the area, so they don't have to deal with travel. And since I don't have enough vacation days to travel myself, I'd like to do something during my break.

 

[pockyD]

but apparently that didn't stop him

my point stands in a vacuum, not just in the context of whether or not you are actively disagreeing with me. therefore, there is no reason not to say what i think

 

[NeighborhoodP]

don't reply so much, it's uncouth of you

 

[pockyD]

I think we both recognize that you and I are not the types to back off of an argument, no matter how stupid a subject it is

 

[choknater]

pocky and P should argue who has the bigger wiener without actually revealing the length explicitly

 

[pockyD]

meanwhile you can post pictures of famous ones in every thread in pac west

 

[HyugaRicdeau]

I don't like traditional Thanksgiving food.

 

[SuperRad]

I don't like traditional Thanksgiving food.

I'm not surprised

But turkey+stuffing is **** and anything else that comes with it is just gravy

 

[NeighborhoodP]

stuffing is meh. it's only good the first time around, and only medium portions. no leftovers for me when it comes to stuffing.

it's all about:

1. yams
2. ham (ham >>> turkey)
3. potato salad
4. turkey

gimme those four things and we're straight. some sparkling cider or something to top it off would be grand.

 

[pockyD]

i'm not a fan of turkey at all. it's just really dry and big chicken

 

[TK Wolf]

I'm not surprised

Lol. Usually what comes with turkey+stuffing IS just gravy. xD

Also cranberry sauce is top-tier.

 

[SuperRad]

Ham is amazing. But I never have it on thanksgiving really.
Stuffing is awesome left over.
Cranberry sauce is good.
Yams I don't care for. Or Potato Salad.

yams i think are appreciated more by black people. we like sweet things.

never met someone who didn't like potato salad.

cranberry sauce bleh.

i'm a picky *** eater though

 

[SuperRad]

I'm fairly picky
I don't like potato salad.
