Thanksgiving 2022

Surrounded by her friends, Sunset Shimmer smiled. "On this Thanksgiving, I'm thankful that I get to spend it with my best friends."

"Me too," said Twilight.

"And football!" cheered Applejack.

"Yeah, the World Cup is on!" added Rainbow Dash.

Applejack scowled, "I meant the real football. You know, Giants - Cowboys."

"Soccer is the real football. You use your feet. When do you use your feet in American football?"

"Kickoffs, punts and field goals," retorted Applejack.

Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes. "Pah-leeze. Those are only a handful of plays. Soccer is the real football!"

"No it ain't!"

"Yeah it is! It's much more athletic than American football."

"Football is more physical."

"Yeah, they just bang into each other."

"Them football players are tough. I see those soccer players fallin' on the ground and cowering in pain aft'a barely bein' touched."

"It's called flopping, and it's an acceptable tactic...."

Watching the argument, Rarity sighed, "Why is it that every Thanksgiving involves an argument?"

Handing out slices of pumpkin pie, Pinkie Pie explained, "It's our holiday tradition!"

Author's Note:

Funny enough, I've had something similar to the above conversation with my coworker, who's a huge soccer (football?) fan.

Since I've last posted, I've spent 7 weeks in military training. And working at my normal job. And preparing for my PT test. And a whole bunch of other things. *Sigh* Hopefully I'll be able to do more writing soon.

Anyways, Happy Thanksgiving!

On a side note, the American football teams that played actually played well for a change. That doesn't happen often.

Yes, the Lions were unusually good this year.

Seriously, Twilight was, like, a teenager! Early twenties, tops.
