Easygoing Eyebeast Goldengirl Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Thanksgiving is today in the United States. As far is holiday go, it's pretty bad for a whole host of reasons. That said, the sentiment of giving thanks isn't bad at all. What are y'all thankful for? Mea Tulpa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk Nephil Thief Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 That someone discovered, thousands of years ago, that they could preserve ideas in written symbols. I hope we never lose that. I know there's other things too - all the technology that keeps people like me alive, for instance - but writing is the one that really comes to the front, in my mind.

Hatchling Cockatrice Mea Tulpa Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Today I actually had Thanksgiving at the house of someone I met here at SW, which is pretty neat. They asked this question and then the conversation changed. But I'll give the answer their dog made me think of: I'm thankful for dogs. nikki. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Goldengirl Posted November 27, 2015 Author Share Posted November 27, 2015 I myself am thankful for sisterhood and sorority, neither of which are referring to proper noun sisters or Greek organizations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Jerakeen Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Cheese. I'm thankful for cheese. And that I'm not lactose intolerant, I guess. Tyranicus 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easygoing Eyebeast keira Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 (edited) As silly as it sounds, SW. Shortly after I became part of the community here, tumultuous things started happening in my life. I dunno who/what I'd be if it wasn't for this community. Being able to get out of the echo chamber I'd grown up in really brought much-needed perspective as to who I was. So yeah, y'all aren't too bad. Edited November 27, 2015 by sylae Thanks for putting up with my crap since 2008, I guess. Sudanna, Aran and Tyranicus 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Alorael at Large Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 I had a quiet night last night and I'm very thankful for it. —Alorael, who has many things to be thankful for. Friends, family, colleagues, and the relative willingness of all of them to put up with his griping. It's a cultural thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Understated Ur-Drakon The Almighty Doer of Stuff Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 I'm thankful for my friends, family, and psychiatric treatment team, as well this place. I joined here in 2001 when I was 13. It had its ups and downs and parts of Spidweb history screwed me up pretty badly for a long time, but all in all I feel smarter and more creative for the experience. I don't think I was ready to have normal interactions with my classmates at that time of my life and Spidweb gave me interaction with intelligent, more-or-less compassionate people and a community where people seemed interested in talking to me, so I'm glad for that.

Easygoing Eyebeast Trenton. Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 I'm thankful for a roof over my head, great food while many go without, and someone to eat it with. I'm thankful for the opportunity to be a part of many amazing comunities such as this. I'm thankful for machines and decives that provide me hours of endless entertainment. I'm thankful that I have a best friend that will walk through the woods with me for hours. I'm thankful for the three parents I now have that love me, even if two of them now hate each other. I'm thankful for my little brother, and I'm thankful for the phone I use to type this that allows me to talk to him, thousands of miles away. I'm thankful for Spiderweb Software, of which without my life would have changed exponentially. I'm thankful for Adam Ruins Everything, Impractical Jokers, and a plethora of TruTV TV shows that make sure I never am bored. And I am DAMN thankful for this life and consciousness provided to me, wether by diety or cosmic coincidence, I am grateful to be posting this today. And I hope you're thankful too.
