Thanksgiving for what?

A Nigerian celebrating Thanksgiving? Wonders shall never cease

I think you should direct your question to your parent, because it seems you are confused, and in need of a serious REALITY check.

Thanksgiving ko, C*unt taking ni. Olodo rabata. Afunu. Alinirori ara Galatia. Anuofia
Re: Whats For Thanksgiving? by SeanT21(f): 12:46am On Nov 22, 2010
Look at this fool.

Most people in America, whether foreigners or not, celebrate thanksgiving. Its a wonderful tradition.

If you are not celebrating Thanksgiving, why are you even responding to this thread?

You call me a fool for talking sense into your coconut head.

So who's the real FOOL!

I have never met a right thinking foreigner who celebrates Thanksgiving! It is an American tradition, marked by Americans, for Americans.

Go meet yout STUPID AMERICAN FRIENDS and celebrate YOUR STUPID AMERICAN TRADITION. You stupid c*unt.


For calling me a fool, may your parents bury you before Thanksgiving. Mi o ni jere e. Olosji
Re: Whats For Thanksgiving? by SeanT21(f): 1:23am On Nov 22, 2010
Please stop broadcasting your lack of knowledge on the topic. Do you even live in America?

Anyway, let me enlighten you again. Thanksgiving is an American tradition but it’s not only for Americans. I live in America and I can tell you that Thanksgiving is celebrated by almost everyone, including foreigners. Thanksgiving is a national holiday. People stay home, cook, eat and give thanks. Thanksgiving is also celebrated in Canada, not only America.

Please, do not come in here broadcasting your ignorance to the world. Go and learn more about Thanksgiving before typing rubbish. Don’t embarrass the Nigerian education system like this you foolish kid.
Re: Whats For Thanksgiving? by fstranger: 1:30am On Nov 22, 2010
^^ Give thanks for what, Mrs. " I live in America?"

BTW, Thanksgiving is not celebrated in Canada, at least not the kind of Thanksgiving that is celebrated in America.

Also, Thanksgiving is not celebrated by all Americans.

And Yes, I work in the White house!

You can diss me all you want, it still has not changed the fact that you are just following the crowd mindlessly!

lol i dont understand why Seant21 needs to tell us at the slightest opportunity that she lives in America. We know everything about you. You just took the citizenship oath less than a yr ago and yet you're trying too hard to act more american than those born there.

Who cares what anyone eats on thanksgiving? I'm not eating anything - i'd be on the road for the most part. Time to go see the world and enjoy a few days away from the chaos that is life.

lol yeah we know "most americans" celebrate thanksgiving, many of us knew that before you were born. Find something else to do.

Too many people struggling to force themselves into American tradition . . . tomorrow they'll be back to ask us what to do about their lack of affinity to anything African. I bet if it was an African tradition most of you would shy away from it and pretend you never heard of it.

Care to enlighten us on anything Liberians celebrate? grin

LMAO. Where do I brag about living in America? What citizenship oath?? I did not even take my test yet you are talking about taking oath.

Please, celebrating Thanksgiving is not about trying to be American. I celebrate it because it’s about getting together with family, eating and giving thanks for all your blessings. There are other American holidays that I do not celebrate like Halloween.

About Liberian traditions? Christmas is always a favorite.

^^ It is funny how she hates herself so much that she'd do anything to act American, whatever that is.

I understand that she is still not over her US citizenship.

Eventually she'd realize that it does not change a thingy. She is still Black and the people she is trying to impress do not give a shyyt about her. I hope she does not commit suicide then.

Dude, stop being ignorant. What crowd am I following?? Thanksgiving is a great holiday with a very positive message that people celebrate. Your ignorance is making me laugh. Take your own advice and use your brain. If you are not celebrating Thanksgiving, leave the thread. No one is forcing you to come here and spill your idiocy.

PS: Of course you work in the White House. The one in Lagos that is and as a freaking house help. Abeg, go and clean the oga bathroom and make it fast. Foolish kid!!

We all live in different states. Thanksgiving is the only time we all get together to eat, laugh, and play. Yes, some African families get together but not all and definitely not mine. Thanksgiving allow us to reunite again. Thats why most people celebrate it. Its not just about eating but also a day to celebrate with family. I don't know where you get the idea that I celebrate Thanksgiving to be more American.

You and your friend came in here and decide to spoil my good Thanksgiving thread. I am not surprised. This is Nairaland after all.

If you think Thanksgiving is all about eating and Black Friday, think again. Like every holiday in America, it has become so commercialized so the meaning is forgotten. Its not just about having a day off. Some of us know the real reason behind it and thats why we celebrate it.

After spending five years in America, you now know more than Americans?

Look if you like, carry America for ya head, na u sabi.

It is my prayer that they deny you their citizenship so you can do us all a favor by hanging yaself. People like you should not live among us, your ilk are in Igbo Irunmale, living with demons and beasts.

LMAO. Look at this uneducated he-goat. Please, go sit down somewhere with this rubbish you are on here posting. You are making yourself look like a fool. The message in your signature says it all about your brain capacity. When grown folks are conversing, shut up and listen.

This is my last time responding to you. I'll be celebrating thanksgiving with my family on the big day. Whatever I choose to do is none of your business. I was trying to be civil and respond to you in a dignified manner but you do not deserve it.

Leave your oga's computer. Idiots like you should not hold such privilege. You deserve to be on your knees scrubbing the urine off his bathroom floor not browsing his internet.
Re: Whats For Thanksgiving? by fstranger: 3:05am On Nov 22, 2010
You think everyone is like you, working as a cleaner in ya USA.

Anyway, I understand how you feel, you just got here and you also want to belong.

And you think celebrating Thansgiving would make you more likeable to your slave masters. One secret: You slave masters do not give a damn about you. To them, You are bstill a SLAVE.

So continue to live like a third-class citizen, it's your choice. Just know that, eating Turkey aint gonna change anything. If you like, eat all the turkey we dey Walmart, abi na costco you dey buy ya own, still does not change a thing!

A word is enough for the wise.

As for me living in Lagos. . . well, it is better to be a king in the jungle than to be slave in the city.

Look at you again being ignorant. Is being ignorant a second job for you? You are one of those fools who, to make yourself feel better about your situation, claim that those of us abroad are living like second class citizens right?? Well, you can’t be more wrong.

FYI, I am not working as a cleaner in the US. I am double majoring in English and Education and will be graduating in a few years. I am just 20 but I have accomplished more in my life than you can ever dream off. You are not the king of the jungle in Lagos. You are just an ignorant houseboy who gets slapped and kicked by your oga on a daily basis. In his eyes, you are worthless.
Now, get off your ass and go get your chores done you slowpoke.

Double majoring in English and Education, id.iot like you.  I should not be conversing with you. You are not up to par with me, age-wise and intellectually.

HAHAHAHA, English and Education. God forbid bad thing

Anyway, go enjoy your Thanksgiving.

Wait a minute, you are an English major? And you write like a third grader? I will advise you to go ask your school for a refund, because they've failed you. The English department at you school would be overcome with angst, if they were to see the way you write.

I'm laughing at your first statement. Anyway, I shall answer your question. I plan on writing children books, textbooks, teaching English in foreign nations, teaching disable children, writing poetry, plays, etc. With my degrees, the sky is the limit.
