With a little extra gravy

Happy Thanksgiving everybody. I'm sorry I ditched you for a few days but I'm sure you'll be able to forgive me somehow. It was a great thanksgiving on my end, I flew down to North Carolina to my sister's place. But this post isnt about thanksgiving, because that's not exactly what I'm thinking about.

This post is about travel luggage. On the way here I saw a very sweet asian girl dressed very casually. Just your typical college student. Nothing fancy. A sweater, a pair of sneaks, you know.. clothes. But heres the thing. She had two bags with her. One was a primo lous vuotton bag. LV all over it. It didn't even look nice. It was big and I just knew it was expensive, maybe like a christmas gift or something. But get this, the other bag was a trash bag.

What the hell? Why would you spend all this money on a louis voutton bag if you cant afford anything else besides it. Get two bags for cheaper or something. It baffled me. I dont think having that "great" bag cancels out the fact that its riding shotgun to a trashbag with yellow tie straps for easy disposal.

I saw a movie last night. This isnt a movie review. Its a movie theater review. Actually, to be more accurate, it is a review of all movie theaters everywhere.

Why can't I get a fucking cup of ice water? I'm a human, if I dont have water I die. I don't want any of your bottled water. I trust taps, I like ice, and I like drinking out of cups. I want a massive cup of ice water, but ive never been able to get it. Everytime, at every theater, it happens the same way. Can I have a cup of ice water please? **weird looks** I'm sorry we cant do that. We can give you this.. is this ok? It's a dixie cup. I can barely squeeze two ice cubes in there.

The only way to do it is to buy the big cup for 4.50 and get it filled. Bullcrap.

I'm starting to think that popping pimples is a bad idea. Blood comes out at the end, and then it scabs. Why is a scab better than a pimple? I dont think it is. I mean, in all seriousness I'll probably pop the next pimple I get, I just think that its counterintuitive. Bacteria on your hand gets into your cut and it gets infected. Its just a bad idea on all fronts. I guess I do it because what I really want to do is just say 'fuck you' to the pimple on my face. Fuck you, pop. Fuck you, squeeze. And I can do it, I'm stronger than it, and I have fingers. But the pimple always gets the last laugh. And when its gone you know what? I'm barely grateful. I think I completely forget ever having the battle. Such is life.

So I'm downloading the new gOS. I think its great for people who dont know how to use computers and/or dont need the computer to do very much besides online stuff. Check it out here. I think its going to be awesome but I'll let you know.

In other news, my niece is so cute. Absolutely adorable. Cutest little girl ever.

In even other news. Watch curb your enthusiasm, Its incredible. The latest season is unstoppable.

But heres what you should do with your thanksgiving leftovers, because this should involve turkey somehow.
Get a small bowl and mix up 2 parts cranberry sauce with 1-1.5 parts mayo. Mix it up real good with a spoon and spread it on some bread, damnit. Then put your turkey on top of that. Take your time here, if the bread is toasted its better but take your time laying down the turkey groundwork. Carefully select your pieces and place tetris-style. Then put stuffing on top of that. Close the sandwich and enjoy. Its delicious and you are probably doing something like it. Experiment with potato chips, mashed potatoes, gravy, peas, etc. Remember, its thanksgiving until the turkey is gone.

Chedder out
