Turkey is DELICIOUS. Also a beautiful country on the fence between many things in opposition: Christianity/Islam, religious/secular, Europe/Not Europe, etc. So jellis of the kids with the moneys to go. Srsly. Did God make rich kids just to make the rest of us feel bad?
Sigh. Anyway. The comic, btw, is Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal, in case anyone is curious. It's smbc-comics.com, I'm pretty sure. Updates daily.

two pieces of wood nailed together are still two pieces of wood.... FYI
I only burn when is has been covered with pork fat. Which is problem for me with most Americans.... Cause you apparently sweat pork grease. So you are like a walking vat of petrol to me. Me being the flame needed to cause some issues.

How do I reek of pork fat? I don't eat piggies. Hell, I hardly eat any animal at this point because my gullet revolts.

Pork is made of win and delicious. French-Canadian culinary culture believes that everything of a pork can be turned into food, and a single pig can feed a family for a week just with everything you can do with it. Bacon, ham, roast, lard, the head, the ears, the legs, the bones, the ribs, turn it all in stew, soup, cretons, and whatever's leftover makes broth and sausages.
As for the cross, it's not the two pieces of wood, it's the symbol of the Christ's sacrifice for humanity's sins that's meaningful. =o

that's really more of a crucifix, bubbles. a cross was just a form of roman capital punishment, used on lots of people including women and children.
unless you were actually roman. then you got to be beheaded.

Then there seriously must be some implantation of bits of French Canada in upstate South Carolina. We do the same thing. (I just don't really enjoy it). There's even an annual chitlin strut in Salley, SC, where I have never been. I prefer BEEF. mmm.

I'm sorry if this insults people, but if Jesus was said to have died in a gas chamber, would everyone be wearing little miniature gas chambers around their necks... I think it's horrible that someone should wear the way people died around their neck, especially when it was supposed to be the way someones god died... i'd hate it if someone wore the way I died around their neck and have it sitting up all over the place... I'd actually find it quite insulting...
That having been gotten of my chest... pork..! Yum..! I only get the lean stuff, though... pork fat has mild poisons in it...

Actually, the cross originated from a pagan symbol. The horizontal bar thingy is a representation of mortality, the worldly, and humanity, basically the imperfect. The vertical bar thingy is a representation of the divine and spiritual world. The union of those two, which forms the cross, is a representation of the union between the two, which is now widely recognized in Catholicism/Christianity/etc. ...How the bloody hell did I know that...
