Thanksgiving Trends

It's Black Friday and we're all stuck at the mall. Here's what we hate about the shoppiest day of the year.
ToriVega
When that annoying guy with the slicked back hair at the cell phone kiosk asks you for your number... again!
 
AndreHarris
When the person in front of you at the check out counter is paying her $48 bill in dimes and pennies. 
 
BeckOliver
When those perfume ladies spray me like I'm on fire. I'm a boy. I don't want to smell like petunias.
 
RobbieShapiro
Those shirtless models that hang out in front of stores. They make me feel inferior.
 
RexPowers
Mall Santas. I don't wanna sit on some grown man's lap? Why not a cute lady elf? I'd sit on her lap.
 
JadeWest
That store where moms dress like their little girls and their little girls dress like their dolls. What is up with that?
 
CatValentine
When you come out of a store to find your brother knee-deep in the fountain picking up "free money." 
 
Sikowitz
Getting arrested for not wearing shoes in the mall. Do you know how gross the police station floor is?
 
TrinaVega
When the hot guy who works at The Pear Store tells you he isn't allowed to date customers. I think he's lying.
 

 
We're putting the "Thanks" in Thanksgiving with our new trending topic. Here's what we're thankful for.

 

RobbieShapiro
I'm thankful for yoga pants... and the girls who wear them to my yoga class.
 
Cat Valentine
I'm thankful for my hair because my head would be cold without it. 
 
Sikowitz
I'm thankful for Hollywood Arts because I was headed to the carnival before I got this job.
 
RexPowers
I'm thankful for the community of Northridge and the ladies it produces.
 
TrinaVega
I'm thankful because I'm everything a boy would want.
 
AndreHarris
I'm thankful for my fingers 'cuz without them I couldn't play the piano -- and my friends would call me Nubby.
 
ToriVega
I'm  thankful for ear plugs whenever Trina is singing in the shower.
 
BeckOliver
I'm thankful for Jade because if I don't write that, she'll text-harass me all night.
 
JadeWest
I'm thankful that we only have to be thankful on one day and that day will be over soon.
 

  

Here are a few Thanksgiving lessons we've learned over the years. Hope our trendy wisdom helps you!

ToriVega
Don't invite your ex-boyfriend. He'll probably just end up weeping into his creamed corn while he begs you to take him back.
 
AndreHarris
Don't remind your grandma the turkey used to be alive. She'll be worried about turkey terrorists all night long. 
 
TrinaVega
Don't waste your hottest outfit on dinner when only your family is going to be there to see you. 
 
SinjinVanCleef
Don't chew your dinner and spit it out just to see the awesome fall colors on your plate. People don't like that.
 
BeckOliver
Don't let Jade say grace before dinner starts unless you want your family to cry.
 
JadeWest
Don't lock your annoying cousin in the basement. Your dad might call the cops on you.
 
RobbieShapiro
Don't wear your tightest jeans to the dinner table because it's embarrassing to have to unbutton them at the table.
 
RexPowers
Don't get too close to the oven if you don't want your face to melt.
 
Sikowitz
Don't miss Thanksgiving because you forgot what day it's on. Apparently it's always on a Thursday. Or is it Friday?
 

We think it's totally lame that there are no Thanksgiving songs. So we made some up!

ToriVega
When A Man Loves a Turkey (When A Man Loves a Woman)
 
JadeWest
Hit Me with Your Best Sauce (Hit Me with Your Best Shot)
 
TrinaVega
Teenage Cream Corn (Teenage Dream) 
 
BeckOliver
Total Eclipse of the Tart (Total Eclipse of the Heart)
 
CatValentine
You Belong with Meat (You Belong with Me)
 
AndreHarris
I've Got a Filling (I've Got a Feeling)
 

Sikowitz
Gravy, Gravy, Gravy (Baby, Baby, Bay). I think I have what they call Bieber Fever.
 
RobbieShapiro
Miss Indigestion (Miss Independent)
 
RexPowers
All The Northridge Girls. There's no Thanksgiving twist on that one. It's just all I could think about.
 

 

Here's a preview of what our grandmas are going to say at Thanksgiving dinner on Thursday. 

RobbieShapiro
I still can't believe they closed the internet. 
 
SinjinVanCleef
The sore on my face keeps getting infected. Can you please apply my ointment for me?
 
ToriVega
Will you please tell Trina to stop asking if she's in the will. 
 
AndreHarris
The post office is run by aliens trying to enter your home and steal your ketchup.
 
CatValentine
I never tell the security guards at the airport that I have a fake knee. It's always funny when it sets off the alarms and they freak out. 
 
Sikowitz
Why am I still alive? I'm 108 years old. Even my youngest grandchild is balding.
 
RexPowers
My grandma was recycled years ago. She's now part of an outdoor dining set.
 
JadeWest
I don't understand why you've dyed your hair black and blue. You look like a bad bruise.
 
BeckOliver
Can you believe The Cheesecake Warehouse is now charging full-price for seniors? I wish someone would fix the economy before 4 PM today!
