You Are the Investigator

What Part of Thanksgiving Are You?

You Are the Stuffing

You're complicated and complex, yet all your pieces fit together. People miss you if you're gone - but they're not sure why.

What Part of Thanksgiving Are You?

Happy Thanksgiving!

I've decided to take a quick look at what the basic elements of the next few holidays are, and this is what I've found, in order of importance:

Thanksgiving - Food, Family, and Football
Christmas - Shopping, Family, and Food
New Year's - Parties, Champagne, and Couples
Valentine's - Couples, Flowers, and Candy (*cough*, not really a functional holiday either)

It seems clear to me, Thanksgiving is the best. I mean, which of the holidays focuses on one of the basic needs? Thanksgiving with its food, obviously. I guess Christmas is okay, if you like to shop (I don't). So have a Happy Thanksgiving! And remember, it's all downhill from here! Unless you like to shop, in which case you have a month left, then it's downhill.

And cooler heads prevail - or not?

Chaos and anarchy reign everywhere. Okay, maybe I'm being melodramatic. But seriously, what's the deal with everybody overreacting to everything?

First, you have the infamous 'Desperate Housewives' Monday Night Football lead-in causing all that controversy. Fine, it was inappropriate for the target audience. (Is football necessarily suitible for 8 year olds anyways? It's pretty violent.) But with the way people were acting, you would think somebody died or something. For someone to call it "the worst thing I have ever seen" is pretty ridiculous (he must never watch TV or go to the movies then).

Then you have a massive fan-player brawl occur at an NBA game. Not to be outdone, a college football brawl occurs the next day; with one of the coaches blaming the NBA incident for directly causing it.

What gives? Clearly we live in a society of high underlying tension, and of overreaction. This is like a powder keg going off. I would like to say "lighten up", but society might blow an artery if I did.

Election day has come and gone

My mom: "So who won?"

Me: "It looks like Bush."

My mom: "What!? But he's not good!"

Me: "It doesn't matter if you're good."

I was about to say, "It only matters if you're popular", but I suppose it can't be that simple. Then again, there must be some reason that there was so much political propaganda in this year's race. If this tactic didn't work, then we would not have seen so much of it.
