But do you have any idea what day comes AFTER Thanksgiving? LEFTOVERS DAY! I was talking about Black Friday. Martin Luther King Day? You really are clueless.

For me, it's Mom and Pop or nothing. Unless I need something right away, then I use Amazon Prime. But if you don't buy a reed, your licks will be dry and scratchy. Dry and scratchy like a cat's tongue. Isn't that a line from the episode "Covercraft"? Look, people get tired. They reuse things. There's only so much gas in the tank! I'm fine with it.

And there's just thousands of them. I am in guitar heaven! Time to leave. Wait. There's a reason this store is so popular: Middle-aged people with too much time and money on their hands buy expensive instruments they don't have the time or attention span to learn how to play.

Now go back to staring at the internet and addictive freemium games while you grow old and die you chumps! These instruments aren't a total waste of money. They're still pretty useful... as blunt instruments for beating people with. *MENACING CHUCKLE* Task: Make Adults Beat Homer With Instruments They'll Never Learn To Play (x5) (60 minutes, Simpson Home) Help!

She's covered in the devil's totems and pagan squiggles on buckskin! I realize Sacagawea wasn't part of Thanksgiving, but I had this costume leftover from Halloween. I was going to wear it then...

Actually, fruits and vegetables feel tremendous pain. The human ear just can't hear their horrific screams. I never knew... I guess I could switch from vegetables to just eating dirt. Nghhey-hey!
