They aren’t really friends if you only hear from them via text on holidays. They’re acquaintances.

Who said I only hear from them on holiday? Lordy!

I hope all your food is tasty and your company doesn't cause you to be the leading story in the news.

SO BLESSED!

I'm so thankful for this site and all the joyous people who participate, that later tonight I'm going to donate to Jeff's fund/patreon.

So called thanksgiving is an occupiers holiday. It should be mourned, not celebrated.

Happy Mother’s Day, okay.
Happy New Years, sure.

But Thanksgiving?? I don’t need your Happy Thanksgiving text, it’s annoying.

Also if I never see you or talk to you on the phone, but you only text me on holidays, please stop. Just let it go.

Feeling the love huh ?

This is such a weird holiday to do the Happy holiday text for. I’m not saying Thanksgiving is not a real holiday, but it just has a different vibe than the other ones I mentioned. Pilgrims, indigenous people, all the twisted history with that. It’s weird to call it Happy when tribes were decimated, raped, diseased and forced off their land, after being the ones to show the settlers how to survive in this new place. The irony is tragic. But yeah, let’s just pretend none of that happened and wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. Okay.

Plus with Christmas around the corner, do you really need to text me the happy holiday greetings twice, back to back? No, just send the one at Christmas or New Years and be done with it, especially if we don’t really talk to each other otherwise.

You may think my post is cruel but I’m just trying to save you some energy. I am thankful for my friendships too but I don’t feel the need to text my friends that thought. I show them with my actions when I actually spend time with them and talk to them. A happy holiday text doesn’t mean sh!t.

Wow…you celebrate Christmas? Even with all the atrocities committed in the name of God?

No one has texted me happy thanksgiving at all. I wish they would. You sound cold OP.

I love hearing from my acquaintances!

Some friends I only hear from on holidays and that is ok. Doesn’t mean this will always be the case.

I guess your friends (if you have any), don't want to put up with your woke, insufferable rants so you come here.
Oh and Happy Thanksgiving. 🤗

Mentioning historical facts doesn’t make someone “woke”, whatever that’s supposed to mean.

You’re clearly a fragile history revisionist who’s probably protesting the LGBTQIA and slavery books in your kids schools bc it might hurt their feelings or make them gay? Mmmkay.

Do you guys send these texts to your Native American friends? Real question. If so, how do they respond?

Funny how I came across this post shortly after wishing many people in my contacts a very Happy Thanksgiving.

I actually received quite a few Happy Thanksgiving 🦃 responses back so I am grateful my own friends do not share your similar sentiment!

Btw -
Happy Thanksgiving 🍁 to you today OP!

It's not that deep and not worth getting upset about. They are just letting you know they thought of you.

Offhand, I doubt there is anyone who even cares what your day is like do. So am going to wish you a HAPPY THANKSGIVING 🦃. Stop being a turkey.

This is the OP. I’m not upset about it, it’s just annoying. I’m sure I’m not the only one annoyed by this.

I do respond in kind to those who send me these lame texts, but I never initiate. I don’t have the heart to tell my friends how lame their Happy Thanksgiving texts are, so I guess this will continue on until….whenever.

Well, they are sitting down to turkey and all the trimmings at 3 p.m. I know this because we were invited but couldn't attend. They, of course, are intelligent and sane people.

I think very few people are irked by a holiday text that says “Happy Thanksgiving!” It’s a pretty inoffensive wish. I could see if the holiday has extremely bad memories for you and the wisher knows there’s no possibility of you being thankful or happy on that day.

Just reply “You’re not the boss of me.”
