Topic: The Chit-Chat Thread

@kkslider5552000 I recently upgraded from a flip phone to a smartphone, and while I do like some aspects of it... I'll be honest, it wasn't worth it. I'm a few months in and already considering going back.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone who celebrates it... I hope you all have a lovely day whether you celebrate it or not.

I will say it as well... happy Thanksgiving! My family will be going to my grandma's house for a Thanksgiving dinner this afternoon.

🦃🍞🥔🥧

Happy Thanksgiving to all the US folk here 🥧

Happy Thanksgiving to my fellow Americans, and to everyone here (regardless of nationality), I am thankful for you! Y'all make this a great site!

Happy Thanksgiving to anyone celebrating out there! Hope you're all having a good day today.

Also, Mario and Pac-Man in the parade today!

@Sunsy I did see Mario in the Thanksgiving Day Parade! I love how he made an appearance in it. I hope you've had a good one as well. Did quite a lot of cooking today.

Anyone else already set up for Christmas? My family set up the (fake) tree the day after Thanksgiving, which is a family tradition. A couple of months ago, I got 4 keychains imported from another country that are based off of the main characters in Hyperdimension Neptunia, and I turned those into makeshift ornaments 🤣. I like seeing some of my favorite video game characters on the tree.

@Nep-Nep-Freak
I will be busy in front of my laptop to finish my Calendar 2026 project during December 2025.
I have a deadline to finish my calendar project before 28 December 2025.

@Nep-Nep-Freak I'm actually planning on getting the tree up today! I'm excited to start decorating. I'll be getting our tree, lights, ornaments, star, and train set all ready. I have quite a few Mario-themed ornaments, as well.

@Nep-Nep-Freak My hope is to get my family's tree (fake) up and decorated either today or tomorrow. My cats will definitely be excited to use it as a climbing structure. As for game related ornaments, I don't actually have any. There are some ornaments I'm interested in: a Rowlet ornament from Pokemon Center and an Original Starwalker (Deltarune) ornament from Fangamer, but I'm sort of sparing with my spending outside of games and textbooks, so I probably won't be buying them.

@Nep-Nep-Freak We are probably going to get our (LIVE!) tree on Monday — we pre-selected it from a local tree farm 😁 We got our Christmas lights up, and just in time, because we got 3 inches of snow overnight! I don't have any gaming ornaments, actually, but I've got a homemade superhero-themed one from when I was like 5 😆

For those who are curious about my tree, it's a faux tree. We've had it for years, actually. We did have a real tree back when I was like nine years old, though.

Meh. Feels like I've run out of conversations with ppl here.

@Mariotag
Okay, I can start with other topic.
Right now, I will watching WICKED: FOR GOOD at my local cinema XXI for the SEVENTH times.

@Mariotag fair enough! Sometimes there just isn't anything to chat (or chit) about!

@D-Star92 Hope your's was good as well. Mine was good, I did quite a bit of cooking, watched the parade, and watched A Christmas Story since Hulu was surprisingly giving it. Mom never seen the movie.

Also, I'd like to apologize to you and @Anti-Matter, I never got around to your responses. November was a busy month.

@Nep-Nep-Freak Had my outdoor lights set up since early November, I put them out when the weather is not as cold, but they don't go on until after Thanksgiving. My tree is set up, just need to put more ornaments on it.

Thinking of having a new profile picture for the Christmas season. I'm thinking of having my Animal Crossing self as my profile picture this time... with my green train conductor outfit! It will be Christmas-y as well, of course. Maybe I'll throw in a photo shoot that I'd be proud of.

@Sunsy I did have a good one, thanks for asking. That's cool, A Christmas Story is a good movie. I'm planning on seeing quite a few Christmas movies this month, as well as continuing my tradition of watching Mickey's Once Upon A Christmas on Christmas Eve. I love that movie and I got a blu-ray of it recently! It came with Mickey's Twice Upon A Christmas, as well. That's great you have your tree set up. I wanted to get mine up sooner, but something came up which I had to take care of. You're OK on the responses, that's totally understandable.

@Sunsy
December is also my busy month.
I have a deadline (I decided by myself) to finish my calendar 2026 project before 28 December 2025.

I found very funny fan art of WICKED if you know about The Princess and the Frog Disney movie. 😆
