And to you as well should you be inclined to have one yourself!
Why, thank you, Peter. To you and Kathleen and the kids as well! 🙂
May your annual late-November feasting rituals be delightful and chock-full
of good eats.
A very happy Thanksgiving to you and your family, Sir!
.
Happy Thanksgiving.
.
Enjoy the food and family time!
With or without gravy?
.
I’ve always thought that the family tastes best with gravy, Not my family mind you…
.
Jerry, I’m going to tell Jenn you said she has not the best taste.
.
Happy leftover day, everybody!
And a wondrous Thanksgiving to all, that day when we give thanks to the Corn God for a bountiful harvest by ritually sacrificing and then eating a large bird…
…What? Got it wrong? What do you mean?
No, you got it right.
.
Happy Thanksgiving to the PADster and all his kin.
That’s how Anya put it back in an episode of “Buffy” when she referred to the holiday as a ritual sacrifice. When Buffy said it wasn’t, Anya replied, “You memorialize a day in the past by killing and eating an animal. It’s a ritual sacrifice, with pie.”

Jonathan (the other one) said, “And a wondrous Thanksgiving to all, that day when we give thanks to the Corn God for a bountiful harvest by ritually sacrificing and then eating a large bird…”
.
Reminds me of something Milo Bloom said in the Christmas 1981 Bloom County strip (I’d thought it was a Thanksgiving strip, and would apply just as well on Thanksgiving): He begins a prayer thanking God for the turkey before them, a bird he says was capable of nuzzling its young with almost human-like perfection.
.
“Anyway, it’s dead now, and we’re going to eat it. Please give our respects to its family.”
.
And in the final panel, Milo and the turkey are locked outside on the front steps.
.
Anyway, happy Thanksgiving to all.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
If you all had a day as ood as i did, you are surrounded by the most wonderful kinds of people.
I hope it was so.
Groovy Thanksgiviing to you!
umm – “good” not “ood” – no alien friends of The Doctor had anything to do with my Thanksgiving.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and you and yours (but not theirs — they suck).
I hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving, too.
BTW, does anyone else do the little statistical count I do on every holiday? I look at all the comic strips I follow, whether in the newspaper or online, count them up, and then count how many deal with the holiday. on thanksgiving, i’ll be a little tolerant in what i count. for example, if a strip has people watching football, that’s a Thanksgiving strip, even if the day is otherwise unmentioned. I read about 84 comic strips every day, and, today, about 50% concern Thanksgiving. That’s about the same as Halloween. Christmas and Independence Day usually have slightly higher percentages.
I know, it may just be me. Right now, I really don’t have much of a life.
Do you take nationality into account? For Better For Worse would do its Thanksgiving strip in October, and Andy Capp wouldn’t have Thanksgiving at all.
Of course, those are the only non-US strips I know.
I don’t see “Andy Capp” anymore, which is surprising, considering how behind Wichita is in the cases of some comic strips. No, I didn’t count “For Better or Worse,” nor do I count strips in perpetual rerun, save “Peanuts,” which tends to be synchronized to the calendar.
I suppose I should try to organize this better, even for the holidays which get little, if any, notice in comics — King’s Birthday, Groundhog Day, etc.
Happy Thanksgiving to all.
Somewhat belatedly, but happy Thanksgiving to everyone — I hope that for those of you to whom it’s relevant, you’re gradually working past the L-tryptophan coma!
