Next step is to buy 25 roosters and thick bedroom windows.

We had turkeys for a bit, and one of them we named Thanksgiving because holy fuck it would NEVER SHUT THE FUCK UP! It would just scream into the void all day.

Did the void ever scream back?

[–] PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 10 points 2 weeks ago

No, but I think the Fox that got him did.

How many Novembers did it survive?

I suppose I misinterpreted, but I thought it was a joke that the turkey was going to be the first to become dinner on Thanksgiving/Novemeber

[–] PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

That's why I was confused. Thanksgiving is in October.

I think I see what happened. I'm from the U.S. and it's always celebrated in Novemeber here. I'm guessing you're from Canada/the UK.

Heh yeah. I'm just giving you a hard time. Especially after the world cup match last night.

I think Thanksgiving got plucked by a fox in the day. We sold the rest of the later on.

My town allows chickens but doesn't allow roosters in city limits, and I assume most towns are that way so I would be cautious there
