A lot of USians dislike going home for Thanksgiving, but still go.
But she was naked! And all... articulate!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Is Thanksgiving a completely Christian holiday? I mean, Christians certainly celebrate it, but for some reason it's always struck me as far more secularizable than Christmas. Or maybe that's true just in my head....

I think it's very secular.
Edited to add: I've never considered it especially religious in any way.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
No one is saying it's Christian, though.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
It's not a Christian holiday, although theoretically you are thanking God for whatever. I got confused with all the words in my head trying to get out.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
The BF, who is Jewish, has issues with Christmas, but his whole family does Thansgiving. I have never known a Jewish person who didn't celebrate it. Two of the peopke I had T-giving with this year were Buddhist, if that adds to the confusion.

Well, at least in our church, Thanksgiving was a time to give thanks to God, so a somewhat-big deal was made of it.

I thought this:
I've got to say, I think it's annoying that the two big Christian American family holidays are so close together. I just saw all those people!!
was saying Thanksgiving was Christian. Then I missread Jesse's followup.

Individual cases may vary, of course. My family didn't go to church and we've always made a huge deal out of Thanksgiving. I don't know whom we were supposed to be thanking but we were thankful, just the same.

I'm asking this in the wrong thread, but I'm hopelessly behind in Tim's thread.
Any word on when DVDs might be out for "The Inside?"
