My lowest thanks giving involved two plates from Boston market and I blackjack game with six strangers.

I would just eat your favorite meal and relax

>>19910092
Spread it out
On Thankskiving roast a small bird, then after that make turkey sandwiches and use the carcass to make gravy, then have shredded turkey with that, then make green bean casserole a couple days after that, and so on
Pie is shelf-stable for about a week so you can have pie with leftovers every day

>>19910092
unfortunately this year family has decided to visit me.
otherwise I would probably cook up a nice ribeye, or maybe roast some lamb.
instead I get to listen to the terrible war in Israel while at Golden corral

Buy a bunch of Swanson turkey dinners and beer and have a feast

>>19910126
Smh, are they in solidarity with Israel? Kind of sounds like my family, they don’t agree with me because I didn’t do what the news guys on tv said about the dangerous Coof.

>>19910092
Time to roll this out of the vault then

>>19910126
>instead I get to listen to the terrible war in Israel while at Golden corral
The Golden Corral is awesome, congrats

>>19910132
yeah they are.
they're old Christians who still believe jews are God's chosen people. they also fully buy into what fox news says.
It makes for great conversation.

>>19910092
Can't go wrong with a couple of these bad boys.

>>19910092
I’m skipping the family dinner at a bar this year. I’m sick of them. I just want to be at a place where no one will talk to me.

>>19910146
>they're old Christians who still believe jews are God's chosen people.

I love these rightwing boomers who have no concept of context. S m h

>>19910183
>at a bar this year.

I know a bar near me that serves up a nice Thanksgiving dinner. I may just do that too.

>>19910092
See if your church is doing anything. You DO go to church, right?

>>19910230
>You DO go to church, right?

Yes. My church isn’t doing anything. The congregation is made up mostly of families. Not a whole lot of singles like myself.

>>19910092
Buy an entire bottle of whiskey before turkey day, drink said bottle after waking up at 5pm the day of, eat an entite Little Caesars pizza then play a round of Russian roulette. if you win go out wandering the city until you find a homeless guy then beat the shit out of him. Happy Holidays!

>>19910092
Just visit family you loser. Also keep in contact with them and foster a good relationship.

>>19910383
No.

>>19910092
Just make the meal for yourself. I bought a whole bird with several traditional sides last year, cost me about $60 and lasted me a week.

>>19910383
everyone in my family is dead

I will be alone this Thanksgiving too. Found an individual turkey breast that I am going to bake. Still thinking what sides I will make.

>>19910794
lucky

>>19910813
>I will be alone this Thanksgiving too. Found an individual turkey breast that I am going to bake. Still thinking what sides I will make.
You should get two turkey breasts and a cloaca, if you know what I mean.

>>19910092
Why, Limmy? Do you still think that masking up will slow the spread? Do you still consider Fauci a patron saint dispite CDC actively funding gain of function research in China?
I agree with this anon, >>19910126, though I cooked a small traditional thanksgiving meal substituting turkey with some dark meat chicken. I remember sides being stuffing, green beans, and mashed potatoes,

>>19910836
>Do you still think that masking up will >slow the spread? Do you still consider >Fauci a patron saint dispite CDC >actively funding gain of function >research in China?

No and no.

i work thanksgiving. mom's gonna bring by chicken and dumplings.

My company is giving out Thanksgiving dinners. I'll have some of that and just watch football. All my family is dead.

>>19910092
If you're looking for special plans to celebrate a holiday by yourself you're doing it wrong. Pro move is to treat it like any other day

>>19910146
This Is my favorite defense they make. Like completely ignoring the fundamental tenets of Christianity. I can't take them seriously

>>19910431
Why not? Do you think Jesus would refuse to forgive past transgressions?

>>19910092
gonna be a cup noodle and maybe a beer kind of thanksgiving this year

>>19911499
Dam anon, that is depressing. Surely you can think of a little better ideas? If not, youre deeply depressed.

>>19910735
I don't want to be alone at my own place for Thanksgiving, too depressing. I'd rather be out among others at least. I actually really like the Thanksgiving holiday, its one of those Western/American holidays that i just really like. I'll probably wear my Sportsball jersey too. (Vegas Raiders)

>>19911496
I forgive them, i'm just not obligated to spend Thanksgiving with them.

>>19910092
Why bother? I'm an isolated loser and I'm GLAD I don't have to even bother doing "special" things for holidays. Every day is just another day to me.

>>19911579
humans invented days where it's okay to celebrate in your own way. some are gay like thanksgiving or valentines, all are pretty arbitrary with what the customs are.
just do what you want in your own way and justify it with "it's my holiday tradition". eating to excess is socially permitted so most people go with that

I realize that the holidays is suicide fuel for confirmed losers, but please dont hijack my thread with your depression.

>>19910146
This is why I don’t discuss politics at family gatherings

>>19911284
that's my niece's excuse too, but then she gets off the next 2 days for Friendsgiving. Family drama has already started.

>>19910101
I ate a salad from a truck stop once...

>>19910168
These are pretty good (but you need to cook them longer that the photo)

I'm getting paid to go play with someone's dog for 30 mins on Thanksgiving haha

>>19911743
oh believe you me, there's no option

>>19912489
Yeah, during the Plandemic my family didn't like that I was against doing what the corporate media wanted. This led to the fallout in my family.

>>19913117
fuck those libtards bro

>If you're looking for special plans to celebrate a holiday by yourself you're doing it wrong.

I wouldnt say i'm doing it wrong, I'm just not doing it the traditional way. I wasn't fortunate enough to be from a very loving family that more privileged anons have. So i have to make due with the cards I was dealt.

>>19911561
That doesn't sound like real forgiveness

>>19910092
I'm probably going to make a frozen pizza and watch youtube videos all day.

>>19913222
>forgiveness only counts when i say it does
nigger

>>19913285

>>19913222
Thanksgiving, not Forgivings

>>19910092
volunteering at local homeless shelters

>>19914302
I've done this before, not doing that this year though,

>>19913273
Thats equally as depressing as that anon who mentioned he's having cup o noodles. You guys sound deeply depressed.

>>19910126
>>19910132
>>>/pol/

>>19913285
Yes

>>19910092
This is the way.

>>19910092
if you live in Austin go to Crown and Anchor's annual potluck. it's great. or go volunteer somewhere. that's what i'm doing this year.

used to go to thanksgiving every year growing up until my mid 20s to see my small extended family. i havent seen or talked to them since thanksgiving 2019, and this year some family from elsewhere are coming in who i havne seen or talked to in 15 years

im gonna refuse to go because i cannot face the fact seeing family when im now gong tobe 32 and still a complete and utter loser with no life accomplishments, not even moving out of my parents house who i would be going with. the thought of people asking what im doing and having nothing to say is horrifying.

i will just stay home and not do shit.

>>19915251
Did it ever occur to you to actually do something with your life so you don't have to worry about these situations?

>>19915251
im basically in the same boat. just own it dude and dont let the normies brow beat you about your lifestyle. if they give you shit then give it right back. they will feel better about themselves because they arent you and you'll feel better about yourself because you arent them.

what fucking life accomplishments do they have to be proud of? having a handful of kids they dont love and being corporate slaves to the bitter end? wow, real fuckin winners, eh?

everyone is tired of modern day society, but family gatherings are a nice change of pace even if you have a grudge against someone or they you.

get dressed, drink, eat, relax, sleep. as long as a fight doesnt break out it will all be fine.

>>19915398
kys normal faggot

>>19910108
What kind of pie are you making?

>>19910134
>bud light lime
you high class bastard

>>19915750
It's the discerning choice for 60yo transsexuals in hawaiian shirts.
