I am thankful for...


Off-Topic Discussions


my wife,
my daughter,
my family,
my friends,
Paizo and all it's amazing staff and stuff, (delivery, today!)
the great community of nutty and imaginative folks who like to share and chew things over on these forums,
and that I found I could apply for a real job that starts in the Fall...

Silver Crusade

Friends and family.

A steady, if boring, job.

Pie.

Scarab Sages

My beautiful wife, my friends, and my family.
My country.
The men and women of the Armed Forces, and the job those Navy folks supply me with.
Paizo.
Beer.


I am thankful for Barnes & Noble sending me an online coupon for 40% off, which combined with my membership, made it 60% off. Purchasing a hardcover gaming book for $28.78 before taxes instead of the initial $59.95 during my lunch hour made it seem like Christmas came early.


A roof over my head, food on the table, and friends and family that care.


…my health, my wonderful daughter and my job.

Paizo Employee Director of Sales

I am thankful for:

  • Good friends, good food, good beer, and good times.

  • A job that I like where I get to interact with people that I like.

  • The luxury to worry about silly little abstract things (like politics, women, religion), as opposed to big nasty things (like obtaining food and shelter).

    ..and last, but certainly not least:

  • My Uludium Q-36 Explosive Space Modulator.

  • Lantern Lodge

  • If only I could be so lucky.... :)

    Right now have a lot to be thankful for; far to much to list off. So I'll sum up by saying that I am thankful for being able to be happy.


    Hmm thanks ..

    What should I give thanks for?

    hmmm ...

    • I'm thankful for my wonderful wife and daughter
    • I'm thankful that I live in an age where I can play on a computer and make friends with people across the globe
    • I'm thankful that Pathfinder has allowed me to become an active DM again
    • I'm thankful that I have good friends, both local and virtual
    • I'm thankful I live in a country where most of the horrors of history have been abolished.
    • I'm thankful that despite all the hard things in life that there is much beauty and peace sprinkled amongst the pain and sorrow.


    Family.
    Friends.
    The five blissful minutes per day in which I don't lose a wrestling match with my existential angst.
    And let's hear it for the internet, huh? What a great gizmo.

    Edit: Oh man, looks like Patrick beat me to all my points, but he's wrong about this country's historical horrors being abolished.Uwe Boll continues to be allowed to show his films here. It's wrong and it needs to stop within our lifetime.


    That CourtFool is still posting on the boards. Even if it's on the wrong forums.

    CourtFool:
    Oy, get upto the Pathfinder forums, and sort those Gish threads out.
    :D

    Edit:
    What. This was a thread for americans only? Someone should have mentioned that in the title...

    Well, as our puritanical forefathers created Thanksgiving to get away from the idolatrus English rituals of Yuletide, you could say its purely American. Of course, we eventually backslid and ended up with TWO winter festivals, but that's just how we roll. 'Course that means we can't really leave the Limeys outside. So come on in and have a slice of pumpkin pie! <)~

    Hmm. Well okay, maybe, if it's gluten-free. :)

    Why thank-you.


    I am thankful for friends this Thanksgiving, because they're going to be what gets me through my thesis in some semblance of sane.

    I'm also thankful to my committee, who haven't driven me insane yet.

    RPG Superstar 2012

    I thank Mairkurion for starting this thread.

    I'm thankful for my wife, who keeps me sane most of the time, and my kids, who don't but are a blessing to me anyway.

    I'm thankful that I am employed (even if I don't like the place).

    I'm thankful for my friends, some of whom I haven't met in person yet.


    Different time zones that give me an excuse to make two thank you threads.
    :p


    Did you start a thread that I missed? If so, sorry, KC!

    You're welcome, Taig!

    No, but I bet I can get away with making a thread both today and tomorrow. :D

    Just kidding. Given my tendencies to threadyap, I probably shouldn't push my luck.


    I'm thankful for little pointy kobolds who decided to be good this year...

    ;P

    Liberty's Edge

    I made it through another year without any unconquerable complications.


    I'm thankful for my beautiful wife. I don't think I'd have made it this far without her.
    I'm thankful for my friends. When family failed me, they were there.
    I'm thankful for RPG's. Not all my friends play, but without the game, I wouldn't have all my friends.

    But if they were plague zombie turkeys ...

    Scarab Sages

    Mmmmm....plague zombie turkey.


    I am thankful for...

    My kids being healthy
    My family and everything they do.
    My friends and their willingness to keep me afloat.
    The people on these boards being so great.
    The gaming community.

    And, this year, I'm most thankful for:
    My eldest son's nightmare ending this year.

    10,000 your welcomes!


    Paizo, it's staff, and this messageboard for giving the the opportunity to meet the new and strange people that seem to join it on a regular basis, as well as the old and strange people who find their way back eventually.

    My friends and family for being family and friends.

    My enemies, without whom I would have no reason to stroke my goatee or plan revenge.

    The good people at SNK, who provide me with QUALITY fighting games(except for that last one).

    My wife. On occasion.
