But what about the non-political Thanksgiving issues? For those, I'm here to argue with random strangers on the street. And prove me wrong. Thanksgiving issues. For those, I'm here to argue with random strangers on the street. Improve me wrong. Thanksgiving addition. Thanksgiving is the worst holiday. I said it. No. Why? What mean no? Why? Family gets together.

Oh. It's all grateful. It already sounds terrible. But it's fun peeling vegetables with family. Family. We do together. We're peeling vegetables? That's a big argument. It's not the worst holiday because Columbus Day is a holiday. So there are worse.

Wait, so you actually genuinely have a good time at Thanksgiving? I do have a great time. Just how much weeds the thankskahah through it? It depends how much extended family is there. So what is the worst holiday? I have to say, and God forgive me, I'm Irish, but St. Patrick's Day can be really brutal in the city. St. Patrick's Day is amazing. Because on Thanksgiving, people get mad if you get blackout drunk.

You got to travel, which is terrible. Well, okay. Haven, the the the they they they they tha tha tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, thi's thi's thi's thi's thi, thi, thoom, thoom, thoom, thoom's thi, thoom's thoom's tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, thaa, thauol holiday holiday holiday holiday holiday holiday is tha, tha, tha, tha, thaa, tha, thaa, thaa, thaa, thaa, thahia's is tha. thah! thah! thauu. today's today's today's today's today's today's today's today's holiday today's today's holiday today's holidays today's holidays holiday. today's todthis is true. Well, okay. Haven't you heard of zoom? Oh man, after two years of zooming nonstop, I would love to zoom on my day off with my family. That sounds amazing. It's supposed to be one peaceful day about being thankful, you know, being thankful for like your family. Did you? Did you?

Did you? Did you? Yo, this is starting to feel a little bit like therapy. Okay, so just so you know I'm not paying you for this. All shoes should have buckles, prove me wrong. I think shoes should just, you know, not their tasks or le. Well, let's look at what the fuck, Pilgrims got a lot of stuff wrong. Genocide, not great. Turkey, you could pick a better animal to eat. But buckles, dude, they nailed it.

First time, boom. Okay, buckles aren't appropriate for every occasion. Like what? If you're gonna hit the beach, you gotta pop on some flip-flops. Pilgrooms landed on a beach-flop. Sograms landed on the beach with buckles. But don't you want your feet to like breathe, be open? I don't need people's feet to breathe. I'm not Quentin Tarantino.

They'll make shoes more expensive. Sure, but isn't part of the appeal of footwear that they're expensive as fuck. That's Nike built a goddamn empire based on that. But speaking of Nike, a lot of shoes they sell they cro Shaps, not buckles. Yeah. I feel like that's more convenient. If you're a goddamn child, then yeah, get some get some Velcro. But if you're an adult, put on a buckle, like an adult. Pumpkin Pie should replace apple as a year-round pie. Pumpkin pie has no taste. What the f-h-It's got no taste, dude. thahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahs, it's got thahs, it's like, thtape, thtape, thia. thia, thi, thi, thi, thi, like, like, like, but thi, but thi, but thi, but thi, but thi, but thi, but th, but th, pu pu pu pu pu pu pu pu, but th, but th, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but th, but th, but th, but th, but th. th. th. thp, thp, thp, thp-p-p-a, thi, thi, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi, thi, thi, thi. thi. thi. What the fuck? Have you never eaten? It's got no taste dude. What? It's a squash. Okay, first of all, that's racist. If you think it taste better, then wouldn't that make it more special to only eat it once a year? This is America. When you like something, you do it every day until you get sick of it. And then you do it some more. Technically with hedonic adaptation, if you do it less often often often thapapapap often th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi, thi. that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, th.

Oh man, I feel like I just ate some turkey. Okay, Mr. Pilgrim, first of all, when you go to mom's house, you don't sit down and she give you a pumpkin pie. She gives you a slice of apple pie. You tell me why you would mess with America and you mess with mom. Hey, you talk about mom's, I'm trying to to to help moms here. It's way easier to make pumpkin pie and an apple pie. Just open a can and done that shit. That's what you do, look at that. You desecrating a mother again, opening cans. Those are the second rape moms.

Wow, now you're hating moms. No, I'm not hating my action. This person hates moms. This person hates mom. This person hates. would recommend that you must be a dad. Hey, that's never been proven in court. Apple has more variety. Like you can play around with it. You know, pumpkins just aren't as varied, so you get sick of it sooner. That's also an argument in favor of how complicated apple pies are.

You have to like pick an apple. There's like 50 different varieties. You have to pick a pumpkin too. No, there's the pumpkin too. There's no red delicious pumpkin? Cabocha! What? Cabocha! Japanese pumpkins? No, that's a squash. Stop trying to take away my pumpkin pie. I don't have squash pie. On pumpkin pie?

Yeah. You're instigating the crowd now. People getting mad at you. Because you're wrong. You're wrong. I have psychology on my school? You're wrong. Union Square about this right now. Pumpkin, pumpkin. When your kid comes home for school or whatever, then you say, oh, a pumpkin a day keeps the doctor away.

No, that's stupid. That's just stupid. You can't do that. You give him an apple. Yeah, but I don't give my kid apple pie to make him live longer. Nobody likes pumpkin pie. It doesn't make you feel good. It doesn't make you you you th make you th make you th make you tha thome.
