Thanksgiving is Sloth.

Sloth? oO

Have you ever cooked Thanks Giving from scratch before? Make the pie crust at home, boil the cranberries, knead and raise the dough, ect ect ect? Its a shit load of work; then there is Friday shopping spree, that certainly isn't slothful.

Nope, every thanksgiving I've sat on the couch and ate.

Don't even get off the couch.

Its about 2-3 days of cooking from scratch. Lots of hard work.

But I think its better eatings if its from scratch though.

With dragon bread and bacon sausage apple stuffing...

Presidents' Day is pride, Independence Day is wrath, Labor Day is sloth, and Martin Luther King Day is envy.

You're welcome.

I would put Independence Day as pride.  Wrath is stretching it unless you're British and you mad.

Hmm... I suppose over here we could have Wrath as Guy Fawkes Night over here, since it's about burning effigies of a long dead catholic terrorist.

I nominate Halloween for Gluttony.

I think Halloween is more Greed.

I'm surprised New Year's Eve isn't nominated to be Lust. Most babies are born around the beginning of October (Oct 5th is the most common birthday), a nice nine months after the beginning of the year.
