Being thankful for the off the wall things…
Posted by Chuck on November 20th, 2007
This is the time of the year where many of us like to reflect on all that we’re thankful for. With that being the case I suppose its a good thing they call this Thursday Thanksgiving. There are so many things that I’m particularly appreciative for, you know stuff like: family, friends, health, job security, etc. But those things are just so blah. (just kidding!) Instead I thought I’d list a few things I’m thankful for that are kinda not so common….
- A functioning penis
- Delsym cough medicine
- The Wal-Mart brand of Nyquil
- The color orange
- Chex-Mix
- Leaf blowers
- One particular warm wet hole
- “Hump Day” Wednesdays
- The University of Louisiana at Monroe…poor Bama
- USDA Choice & Prime steaks
- Buffalo Chicken Wings
- Down comforters
- Hearing the words “give you” and “blow job” used in the same sentence
- Tom Bergeron
- Having access to my kid’s grades daily on the Internet
- Sports talk radio
- Hot MILFs like Jennie Garth
- The designation “above average”
- Spicy chili on a cold day
- A fresh clean spit cup
Okay, I could seriously go on and on but I’ll stop. Y’all get the picture, dontcha? So tell me all you wonderful blog friends, (that I’m also very thankful for), what is something off the wall that you’re feeling thankful for this year?

Chardoney, Excedrin PM, and a car that gets 33 MPG. Also that there is only one more chance for BAMA to embarass themselves this year.

Warm, furry puppies.
Ice cream.
Un-whiny teenagers.
“Hearing the words “give you” and “blow job” used in the same sentence”
Hmmmm. Are you sure?
“Since blowjobs are obviously evil, how about I give you a nice meatloaf sandwich with olives on top, instead?”

Delsym is the best stuff! I was thinking of doing a thankful post, so you might just have to visit Thursday.

I’m thankful for:
Uhu glue sticks
My new Suburban
Being the “Boss’ Pet”
Emails that make me smile
My Crocs flip flops
Chuck (the tv show)
Premade Mudslides
Seriously, I could go on.

Off the wall, eh? The ones on my blog were so sappy, I’d love to contribute some silly ones. I’m thankful for:
* Not being an Alabama fan
* Lloyd Carr stepping down gracefully (I can think of others *ahem* who might benefit from his leadership)
* Not having to cook or bake for Thanksgiving
* Trader Joe’s Joe-Joes
* Hugh Laurie and David Boreanaz

Hilarious, as usual. I’d add “tight” to “warm wet hole”. Well, I would if I could.

Great internet access in a very rural area.

SugDaddy - Did you hear what Saban said in his news conf yesterday? He compared the loss Saturday to 9/11 and Pearl Harbor. Yeah, the embarrassment continues…
Christina - now that would not be something to be thankful for. I’m not an olive kind of guy!
Lynda - I know. I love that shit! I’ll check you out on Thursday.
Julie - Wow, what a nice list of randomness! I love it! Chuck is great, isn’t he?
Amy - True dat about being a Bama fan! Trader Joe’s Joe-Joes?
FHB - Right, I left off “tight”. That’s very important!
Jerry - Yep, that’s definitely a good thing. The world would be so much smaller without it!

Diva would like to give thanks for Energizer brand batteries. They keep going and going and going.
Oh yah, and Load Potato Soup from O’Charley’s.
November 20th, 2007 at 4:35 pm
I’m thankful for batteries… I mean, at least until I find a man!
And good blogger friends like you!
And I’ll be really thankful if the Orange will out-shine the blue on Saturday!

Well, I was kind of hoping for an invitation like Slick’s wife got? But after hearing about the spit cup…. ew…. ew…
Grateful? Russian bees. Yep.

Dry roasted peanuts.
Getting a kick-ass parking space at work (it’s about a quarter-mile walk from the parking lot to the time clock).
Drinking straws.
Stadium seating at movie theaters.
Having a job doing what I love.

Man, I’d give anything to be thankful for several of those things again…but a “fresh spit cup?” Yuck!
November 20th, 2007 at 11:45 pm
Ghost - Mmmmm mexican food….now I’m craving it.
Diva - I’m thankful for that black and blue salad they have at O’Charley’s. Damn good! What’s the batteries for? lol
Snow - Batteries too, huh? Yep, go big Orange!!
Claudia - Ah come on….you know you want some of my feast!
Christina - Stadium seating. True….makes Hairspray so much more bearable for the 20th time, right?
Tim - Yeah man….Tom is like the best live host ever!
Differentgirl - Thanks! Happy BD to you too….and yeah, DMD rocks! My wife likes it with a slash of rum.
Mushy - Fresh spit cups are so much nicer than one that’s two inches full of syrupy tobacco spit. And they smell better too!

This is a good idea for post — I may borrow it! Here’s a short list in the meantime:
Pushing Daisies (that show makes me smile)
That my disabled dog is peeing inside less often
The chocolate tower truffle cake from Cheesecake Factory
I’ve had a couple of good hair days in a row
That I turned into Rudolph with my latest cold and Ted still seems to be attracted to me
