The Top 11 Reasons Thanksgiving gets Overlooked.So I’m driving home from the grocery store this afternoon, flipping through the radio channels, and much to my surprise I happen upon a station that is already running 24 hour Christmas carols…

Come on… Are you for real… Christmas Carols Already??? It isn’t even Thanksgiving yet!!!

Which got me to thinking… As a holiday Thanksgiving is rather like the redheaded step child of the family… It tends to get overlooked…

So as I’m apt to do I put together a list of eleven reasons why Thanksgiving gets overlooked, and yes once again it is eleven… Any Christmas Caroler with a blog can give you ten reasons. It takes a real genius to bring you eleven…

11. There are no catchy Thanksgiving carols.

10. Turkeys just aren’t as loveable as elves.

9. Ewwwwww… Yams… Nuff said.

8. Creepy aunt Louise and her cat with the skin condition.

7. You don’t give Thanksgiving gifts.

6. More importantly you don’t receive Thanksgiving gifts.

5. Being thankful… Well it’s just too much to ask… Sorry, I’m just being honest…

4. Tofurkey… a vegan deeeeelight!

3. The flatulence… Dear god the flatulence!

2. Minced Meat Pie… (On a serious note, does anyone know what this is?)

1. Santa is a megalo-maniacal evil genius bent on world DOMINATION!!!

I’m Just Sayin’…

  1. I’m one of the few odd balls who thinks Thanksgiving is the greatest holiday, next to July 4th. You get a great meal and you don’t have to buy anyone gifts. We also have a radio station which started 24/7 Christmas music. Let’s just say they lost a listener. I refuse to participate in Christmas until after Black Friday. You dig me?

  2. I’ll never forget the day after Thanksgiving handball games where we’d try to outdo each other with our turkey farts. Very gross.

  3. “Eww… yams” is right. I overlook all the holidays.

  4. The Girl Who Thinks Thanksgiving is the Greatest Holiday Ever… Oh I dig you baby! I dig you somethin’ fierce!

  5. Mother… Sounds like good times! Good times…

  6. Mike… Right? I mean just because you put marshmallows on baby shit… It’s still baby shit!

  7. Wow, I don’t think anyone’s ever told me that they “dig me something fierce.” Whooo-hoooo! You made my whole day !

  8. The Girl I Dig Somethin’ Fierce… Glad I could make your day.
