What was that? I couldn't understand you over your strange colloquialisms.

Noting that every apostrophe stands for one or more omitted letters, Bacon, what was the original message? 0_o |

Indeed it is, and you just brought it back from a brief period of respite!

Not bad. Got Thanksgiving weekend this weekend because it's Canada so I'm a bit turkey-tired (even though I'm aware that's a myth).

Interesting, I always forget Canada has a different day for that. What's its origin story?

Well, it changed around regularly for a century or two based on events that happened that people were to be thankful for. Eventually the traditions from American Thanksgiving made their way over as well, and it's kind of a convoluted and inconsistent mess until after WWI, at which point it was merged with Armistice Day until the latter was made its own holiday (Remembrance Day) and Thanksgiving moved to the early-October celebration time rather consistently. (Meanwhile, America's also switched around quite a bit, though not as drastically as some of the springtime ones in Canada from what I read, but eventually settled on a late-November date.)

Hey icon, what do you call a tree-herder who makes spreadsheets in Microsoft Office? |

I have a feeling this is a set-up to a really lame pun, which is why you tagged Icon...

Maybe we'll be spared the punch line.
