Things that ruin Thanksgiving ...

in life •  8 years ago 

Thanksgiving is tomorrow!

It's a day to spend with family, relax, enjoy the company, and eat some good food. 

The center of every Thanksgiving meal is of course the Turkey - but have you ever thought about where the Turkey comes from  or under which conditions he's lived (and died)?


If you've been on the Internet for a few years, you probably know NigaHiga - a YouTube Legend. (He actually used to be the most subscribed youtuber before PewDiePie came around).

In his annual Series "Things that ruin thanksgiving" he started out with a comedic sketch about all the things that can go wrong at a family dinner - and then over the years, it turned more and more into a drama about a Turkey.

Part 1 - still a comedy about Thanksgiving


Part 2 - Sketch and an introduction to the Turkey's life


Part 3 - The Turkey's Revenge!


Now obviously these are very over-exaggerated, but ...
Remember how blessed you are on Thanksgiving to have food on the table, and that the Turkey was once a living being too, so don't waste it!


In other news, after Thanksgiving nigahiga has also been driving around LA and giving Thanksgiving meals to the homeless!

that's so true, please appreciate the turkey!
I rarely eat meat, almost a vegetarian, but on thanksgiving I just have to follow the tradition. But I take care no turkey is being wasted.

I love nigahiga, he's still the best!

I actually saw all of those, I've been following nigahiga for a long time!

the last video is definitely my favorite .. the turkey gets REVENGE!!

thanksgiving should be a way of not only saying thanks for the blessings in your life, but also for the food and for the turkey...
