Thanksgiving is right around the corner. What are you guys thankful for? What is your favorite part about Thanksgiving?

Maybe it is a certain food for you. For others it maybe the black friday shopping. Or it could just be watching football with your family.

Lets hear it NS.

Dear heavenly spirit, thank you for providing us with the direct port nitrous injection, four core intercoolers, ball bearing turbos, and titanium valve springs. Amen.

I'm thankful that no part of me is injured to any great extent at the moment.


I would say my favorite part of Thanksgiving is waking up to go to work at 2AM, oh wait? that's my least favorite part. Atleast I get to spend Thanksgiving with my family this year, while all those poor SOB's at work deal with the Black "Thursday" madness.

My husband is amazing. He is super selfless and amazingly patient. I also have my dream house-- I can't even believe we live in this house--I have to pinch myself every day. I have such a great job-- I get paid a lot and I actually enjoy the work that I do. I have good benefits, coworkers that I like, and I'm high enough up that I am self-managed. My parents are my best friends-- they're hilarious, fun to hang out with, and probably the nicest, funniest, most fun people to hang out with that I know-- they're also super generous and supportive and are constantly providing the platform for my husband and I to be successful. I am healthy, with great vision, great hearing, nice teeth, nice hair, and good overall strength and bones. So those are just some of the things I'm super thankful for.

And my favorite part about Thanksgiving is hanging out in my parents cozy living room with the fire going, in my pajamas all day, with hot toddys, and football on tv, snuggled up with all of my immediate family.

I've been in a deep low recently. I'll will be thankful when i kick my ass out of it.

I am thankful to shred some corduroy this weekend and the love shown to me by my girlfriends family. This will be my first thanksgiving with them and i'm sure it will be dope.

I go, silently with my family to the brown stone spire and thank it for what it had done, and all it had mercifully have not done. it usually accepts my sacrifices, but if it doesn't this year... well, it's too late for me.

By dad always had to work on Thanksgiving for as long as I can remember, and the holiday in general has always been a shit show in my family. That changed last year when I went to my girlfriend's for Thanksgiving. They've taken me in as one of their own and I am extremely thankful for it.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

One think I'm thankful for is that though I had to work today my shift only went till noon. So I can still spend the rest of the day with family.

Thankful for so much, but really thankful that my kids are doing great in school. That may sound like typical parent BS, but so called specialists in Denver Public School told us that my daughter was severally autistic and would be basically a potted plant for the rest of her life. They also told us that the quicker we accepted that, the better it would be for everyone. They made it impossible for us to keep her in public school. We just got her report card and she made honor roll; nothing below a B. I feel like printing out her report card and mailing it to the idiots at DPS as an early Christmas Card. ...but I won't.

I think the best part of you ended up as a stain on the mattress :-)

Happy Thanksgiving!

Thankful for my fucking job even though I'm spending my Thanksgiving at work rather than with family. Oil prices are tanking so I never know how much longer I'll be making big money so I'm thankful for every next well I drill.

Of course, my family as well.
