Possible context: Lisa's mother-in-law has pressured her to prepare Thanksgiving dinner for the extended family. Lisa has reluctantly agreed. She made an honest try but made a key mistake and the turkey was a failure. "Well, you know, I never was a good cook." I was never a good cook. The rest of many sentences may make clear as to whether you are referring to a past or future activity, but not always. Consider this Thanksgiving (in US, late November) dinner conversation. When did you rent the cabin? This summer. It was lovely in 2012? It will be lovely in 2013? @David Wallace, Shyam: Suppose the Thanksgiving turkey is on the table, but Pa couldn't be there because he's away on business bring home next week's bacon. I can imagine the dutiful eldest son saying "I'll be father" as he grabs the carving cutlery and sets about slicing off and serving everyone's portions. – I grew up in the midwest—small town, rural area in the 1950's. The meal in the morning was always breakfast. The meal in the evening was always supper. The mid-day meal was either lunch (a light meal, maybe a sandwich and soup) or dinner (large, like Sunday Dinner or Thanksgiving dinner). We (Americans) would use 'at' for a festival, party, gathering, etc. For holidays like Christmas, Thanksgiving, etc., we can use 'on' for the day (or add the word 'day'), but we use 'at' for the period, allowing time for preparing gifts, food, and decorations, and for travel. – Where does the expression "ta" come from? Wikipedia has only this to say: "ta!", slang, Exclam. Thank you! {Informal}, an expression of gratitude but no additional information or links about its We have the word "eve" to mean the day before a specific day, like a holiday. The day before Christmas is "Christmas Eve". Is there a word that can be used to concisely say "the day after Christm... Part of the reason for this may be that for some Americans Christmas consists only of the 25th, whilst in Britain, as one American ex-pat. put it to me, "Christmas in the UK seems like 4th July, GW's birthday, Thanksgiving, and American Christmas all rolled into one." For many in Britain it is a ten-day holiday (for some a ten-day booze up!). – I think you've got it about right. I would think in terms of the duties of the US President. The Constitution requires him to sign or veto bills, to appoint Supreme Court Justices, etc. These things are mandatory. Tradition requires him to do the annual Easter Egg Roll, to pardon a turkey at Thanksgiving, to give speeches all the time, etc. In contrast, Thanksgiving (the U.S. holiday) does not fall on this or that day of the week. It is on the third Thursday of November and falls on a different calendar day every year. So, for commemorative days with a set date, we say: X day is on [date: May 10th] and this year that falls on a Saturday.

2024.11.28 21:23 LastDiveBar510 Hear me out y’all we should bring back da rag as a Black Friday game
Imagine this weekend in New Orleans bayou classic + other festivities on thanksgiving. The following day what if we had lsu v Tulane @ da dome? They could do a huge 2nd line, thanksgiving parade , battle of the bands pregame at the quarter
Battle for the rag world’s largest boudin cookout?? Or seafood boil
This could eventually be a huge game for recruiting in the state. We could make those huge pregame festivities to spicen up the game give it kinda a worlds largest cocktail party vibe but Louisiana style
Then we can save those yellow jerseys specifically for this game and pull those out while Tulane wears green so it gives the game a Mardi Gras color way
If we do this we can cancel the week 1 neutral site game

2024.11.28 21:23 Intelligent_Pass2540 Thankful for this Sub! Happy Thanksgiving to all the Dusty Haters
Hi All,
Just wanted to say that despite this being a snark sub it's a very supportive place. Many of you know my story. TLDR : Divorced a violent attorney and have a kiddo with special needs.
Survived two back to back hurricanes this year. This year has been tough and like most single moms i struggle during the holidays. I do the best I can during this time of rebuilding my life. I just wanted to say thank you to everyone here for your kind words, support and uplifting humor. Big shout out to the Mods, yall do a wonderful job.
Just wanted to spread some gratitude to all of you for the support and wisdom that is shared here. So many of us work so hard as mom unlike our MAHHHMM in chief Queen Toofies. Hope you have a wonderful holiday season and Happy New Year!

2024.11.28 21:23 Advanced_Humor_9744 The weakest party ever created
Okay, so my players and I are planning to play a comedy mini-campain. Parodies of such typical D&D adventures. For this purpose I need advice from you. What are the weakest classes, subclasses and races (combinations of races and classes) that exist in D&D?. We will play on levels 3-5. I would like to emphasize that this is not about creating something like a team of 5 gnome bards or anything like that. No, let this party look like an average team of adventurers, they are simply mechanically quite useless and weak. So, any suggestions? I would be most grateful for all of them

2024.11.28 21:23 __R3v3nant__ What is specific fracture energy?
So I'm trying to figure out the energy needed to fragment 1m3 of stone and I've heard that I need to know something called specific fracture energy, so what is it and how do I use it to calculate the energy needed to fragment stone?
Also what is a good resource to find the specific fracture energy for different materials?

2024.11.28 21:23 shakycrew Need some help with my Marble Queen Pothos
I bought this Marble Queen Pothos almost a year ago and it lost a ton of leaves. I’ve looked up common issues associated with this plant so I get the general idea of what to look for. I’ve bought fungicide, pesticide, neem oil, pothos fertilizer etc... Since I’ve bought these my plant has started sprouting a small handful of leaves every few weeks but they end up being small or just not fully forming. Can anyone give me some advice or thoughts and opinions on what could be causing these issues and how I can improve the size and quality of my leaf development? Also to note: my house doesn’t get much sunlight even the south facing window. I’d say maybe 3-4 hours of light comes through. Although as far as I’ve read about pothos is they don’t like bright direct light so I’m not sure that’s the issue. The pot size is also a size 9 in case anyone is curious. submitted by shakycrew to houseplants [link] [comments] |
