Ahh, Thanksgiving. Turkey, pumpkin pie, stuffing, rampant consumerism...
Thanksgiving as we know it is only celebrated in America, but many other countries have their own unique celebrations which are all meant to give thanks and celebrate the end of the season's harvest.

When President Obama was asked on Sunday why America was contributing the overwhelming majority of military coalition resources against ISIS, he had this to say:
"When trouble comes up anywhere in the world, they don't call Beijing, they don't call Moscow. They call us. That's the deal. That's always the case. America leads. We are the indispensable nation. We have capacity no one else has. Our military is the best in the history of the world."
What followed, we can only presume, was the biggest mic drop in the history of ever.
