I seem to be heading to the famed waterway in a craft lacking propulsion...
We've been invited by a Mercan group to an ex-pats' Thanksgiving Dinner tonight. There may [will] be alcohol involved and there probably will be a need for some adulting; a task I am never good at at the best of times.
So what subjects ex-politics can I safely approach? I've got as far as the end of the Goat Curse and that's it. What else could Mercans be thankful for this year?

Maybe, but the party is tonight. I know quite a few of the Septics are flying back to Trumponia for their reintegration.

We always used to celebrate Easter a week late, because my daughter figured out that she could get twice as mane Easter eggs, that way.

Pity is... you will have to stand the full program (Jingles, Publicity, and rest of the crap) anyways, because the rest of the world won't respect your anticipated fest.

Have you been in many stores lately? Christmas started about 3 days before Halloween.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

The Cubs won the world series.
(I don't know much about Baseball, but this seems to be a topic worth talking about...

First place in Merca I visited was Chicago in '77 and I went to both Cubs and Sox home games.

Well... A sudden attack of stomach illness would save you from this unease...
On the other hand if you are curious about these Mercan life forms then you can always test the waters by mentioning Trumps hair. Listening to the echo of that will give you a pic of the crowds inclinations.

What do you all have with Meerkats today?
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

That we're not Mercans? 
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Talk about all the wonderful American inventions, like...
Erm...
... Well, they invented guerrilla warfare and ter'r'rism, so that'll be a start.

I always use a simple sentence/question to start with, when I am in a expat-party.
Wow... it has to be cool going back home, hasn't it? What is the first thing you are going to do once back at home?
With this... you let them pick the topic, they will speak a while and you only have to "aham, really?, no way..." from time to time.

I thought you wrote Mexican and thought; tacos?
There's lots to be thankful for, just think of things at the individual rather than abstract level. For one, you are able to drink. That Stephen Hawking isn't in your house being Mr. Negative.
