Blake Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 Thanksgiving's coming up here in the US, and Christmas is next month... So I figure now's as good a time as any to talk about what we're thankful for. And a topic with a light base is a good thing every so often, right? I'm thankful for...[spoiler=Kinda became a downer]Bree and Lily, because they're both always there for me, despite everything. For Ken and Marco, though they're not around as much. For all my acquaintances with whom I spend time. For my sister, mother, and grandparents. I don't have much to be thankful for beyond the basics... truly, I am, by all means, a failure... and 2015 has been one of the worst years of my life. But it's not going to help to... to sit here and cry over the thing I wished for every birthday and every wishbone my sister and I did together being gone. It's not going to...`make anyone happier, it's only going to drag me down. And maybe... I want to be dragged down... but I can't just give up and let it happen, no matter how enticing it is. ... I'm just thankful I don't have to go back to being all alone... even if it's not... how I want it to be... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tourmaline Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 I'm thankful for myself, and maybe very few people who I share a mutual care for (admittedly extensions of being thankful for myself). Oh, and I guess I'm thankful to another certain group of people who nobody here knows. It's a big part of why I use my name. Myself because of how strong I've been considering my situation. Nobody else could do what I did for myself but myself, so I learned a lot from otherwise horrific experiences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astolfo Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 I don't know what I'm thanfkul for, but I'm thankful for having good friends (both IRL and online), a loving family, steady source of income that supports my family, good food/water/education/shelter, and I'm thankful for Toyo, since she's supported me pretty much whenever times got tough or I was sick or down or upset.So yeah, thanks everyone, and you especially, Toyo!

Tinkerer Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 I don't know what I'm thanfkul for, but I'm thankful for...Darn it, I wanted to make this joke. I guess I'm thankful that I'm alive and (mostly) well as well as most of my family and friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fusion X. Denver Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 I'm thankful for the people that care about me. If I ever get down or feel worthless, I remember all of these people that like me for me; it's great medicine.And I'm thankful for heroes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sethera Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 I'm thankful for God, books, video games, music, and my hobbies for getting me through life. Sometimes it feels as if it's not worth it to keep going, but it's stuff like playing a good video game or singing a meaningful song that pulls me forward. I'm also thankful for food. I'd die if I couldn't have food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordCowCowCowCowCowCowCowCow Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 Oh I guess I should say the obvious too. Which might not be so obvious...I guess. Hmm.I'm thankful for my family and friends. I'm thankful to you, YCM, for giving me a place to be me, to share thoughts, to find new things to enjoy and think about. To being there when I needed advice or just to vent and calm down after stressful times.Its been more rocky than last year, but this still holds true. This place has added to my stress, yes, but overall it's done more good than bad. So thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epicmemesbro Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 I'm thankful for all of YCM. This wouldn't be the same without even one of you. All of you have contributed to the experience that I have had here on way or another. Think about it. The chances of all of us being here, on this site is incredibly rare. ^_^ I greatly enjoy being part of this community through thick and thin. After all that is what YCM truly stands for: YouCompleteMe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The chances of all of us being here, on this site is incredibly rare. ^_^ I greatly enjoy being part of this community through thick and thin. After all that is what YCM truly stands for:YouCompleteMeI wish I could hug you right now.Anyway, I'm thankful for my family who support me so much daily. Also to the people who I have become friends with here on YCM. Most importantly though, the guy who works at China Garden about 5 minutes from my house, I'm thankful for you. I could honestly go as far to say that I love him. I mean think about it, the sesame chicken and chicken fried rice dinner combo is $9. Guy only charges me $8.50 because I go there so often. If that isn't true love idk what is. And that my friends, is definitely something to be thankful for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EndUser Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 I'm thankful for everybody who contributed to me having whatever I have and have gained so far. My parents, especially, are the best at this. Moreover, I'm thankful that I can still go on, no matter the difficulties I've faced and continue to face. Finally, I need to thank you all for being there for me (in your own ways), as well as for the chance I had to gain a lot from being here. (Now that I think of it, it all started because of a card game. In your face, Yugioh haters!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makο Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 Thankful that I'm an utter simpleton; a fool bumbling his way through life, somehow making it through thick and thin without so much of a scratch.I'm easy to please, the smallest things fill me with incredible joy, stress melts off my back no more than a day after it piles on.The simple things in life keep me going, and I'm filled with peace knowing that, no matter what happens, I'll likely be alive tomorrow, and so long as I can feel the ground impact beneath my feet, I know that it'll be ok.

Night Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 I'm thankful for when we used to watch dragonball z together, and then proceeded to infuriate the neighbors whilst screaming at the top of our lungs trying to go super saiyan. Maybe it was just because I was still so young, or maybe it was your immense influence on me that made me believe everything you said. We never did go super saiyan, but it does make for a hilarious sentiment looking back on it. Although you're no longer here to laugh about it with me, I'm still thankful for the moments we shared.

Trebuchet MS Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 I guess I'm thankful for my experiences on this site that have taught me a fair bit about card design (particularly how not to do it). Through these experiences I've grasped several concepts, like the differing attitudes on what "fun" is, that have let me become this competent. There's probably a lot more to go to attain perfection, but whatever. I still use these lessons in designing in other card games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
