Indeed! I was privileged to have two full dinners, one at the cabin with friends of my brother's family, one the next day with all the family at my parents' house. I have practiced gluttony at Level: Falstaffian.

You're a lovely human being, Teddy.

Awesome, glad you had fun. I didn't have ANYTHING for Thanksgiving

Yes, yes he is

Oh yes, I meant to ask how yours was. Why didn't you have anything?

Wuff. Hopefully you'll get that job so you can get your own personal stash of food for when the pantry goes empty.

My father has just angered me to a level of rage I have not experienced in months.

Mom was too tired to cook. We had ham sandwhich (the ham was oven roasted from the day before, but still). Do don't worry, I did have FOOD, just not a spread of it.

I just found the file in Cave Story that defines whether or not different modes have been unlocked.

It's a text file. With the code explained right there.

Wow, it's almost as if the game maker likes us or something.

In all seriousness though, I don't see why you WOULDN'T want to play through it all again, to be perfectly honest.

But yes, congrats on that. HUZZAH!

Got a great theater tip today while doing set construction: "If you're unconscious of your surroundings while set-building, there's a decent chance you'll end up being actually unconscious." (I got this one after walking under a bright orange ladder without noticing the existence of said ladder.) Goes nicely with the one we learned earlier: "If you scream in the scene shop, you had better be bleeding. If you aren't, we can arrange that."

Oh man, I remember finding that! Actually, I think it's still on my desktop or something. That was fun.

Regardless, I've played through it four times already. (By which I mean, I've played all the way up into the Sacred Grounds, which I have yet to beat.)

Good luck on that. I've beaten that once. Once.

I'm going to send you a turkey dinner in the mail.

We're only murderous to people with the name Duncan. Or anyone in that play. Or anyone that mentions the name of that play in a theater.

(Actually, the one-act I'm in this fall uses the word several times in the play, so it's just fine for me to say Macbeth on-stage. But only for this play.)

Yeah.... plus, knowing me, it would show up with a bunch of cardamom and rose petals all over it; and the plate would be some Chinese antique, and a raven would espy the gilded edge and make off with it and part of your face.

On the other hand, therein too would be a bottle of 2001 Spanish Tempranillo, and even you who has not tasted wine would, after your first sip, finish the bottle in a sitting: and you would wind up out on the tundra dancing with the Aurora. You would meet your spirit guide the Arctic Fox missing the tip of an ear and become self-empowered.

But no, you are right. It wouldn't work. I won't bother.

Well, here in Australia you can order a frozen turkey meal online and have it delivered. Then all you need to do is microwave it.

That is awesome. Do they deliver overseas?

Being certifiably descended from the dude who was basically responsible for Thanksgiving on the pilgrim side, and being in a bragging mood, I can honestly say I am disgusted.

Since when are drama people murderous? Be careful - you're walking this path of slander like a SHEEP TO THE SLAUGHTER. PUN THREAT FOR THE WIN!!!!!!!

IT'S THE SCOTTISH PLAY. I, along with most people here, won't even say the name offstage.

That is.... Shocking. And un-american.

That is a great kindness and consideratory gesture, considering your... Avian... Disposition.

Hey man, it's a real thing. I once said the name of the Scottish play as part of a class discussion, and later that same day I broke up with my girlfriend. Coincidence? I. THINK. NOT!

Makes English class really awkward, I'll tell you that much. "Lady The Scottish Play's descent into powerless madness parallels The Scottish Play's own hardening callousness...."

We birds of the flightless flighted variety have no great love for our earthbound cousins. You may eat them as you desire.

But if I see you biting so much as a squab, then God help you, ruminant

I just sent a friend request. I probably put the wrong thing because I am a bumblepuppy.

They are simply "the Thane" and "the Lady". Of course, it's allowable to say the names for rehearsals and performances.

From a literary standpoint, however, I wouldn't call it a parallel so much as a dramatic reversal. The Lady goes from callously pursuing her ambition for her husband to going mad with the guilt, while the Thane goes from being hesitant, and not really wanting to kill the king, to ruthlessly murdering anyone who gets in his way. It's not a parallel, it's a head-on collision!

Yep. Curses to literary analysis in three seconds flat.

[Coidzor]

Now to recall whether squab is crow or seagull.

Neither of which seems pleasant.

Especially because crows are smart enough to recognize us and plan for revenge...

Turkeys can fly? I thought they... Kinda flapped around. Most of them are too fat to manage flight, now. Especially when it nears the End of the Warm Season.

Squab's a pigeon, isn't it? A tender, moist, mouthwateringly delicious pigeon... not that I would ever eat one. Because I have respect for my avian friends.

Squab is young pigeon. Yes, let us continue our uneasy truce with the corvids... pigeons strut about with an expression of constant amazement, unaware.

I am there.

I made a big waffled typo. It has been corrected. Turkeys are flightless, not budgie-wudgies.
