Can’t we just cuddle?

“What are you, gay.”

RIP Thorax.

Don’t forget the soft pretzels. That’s an extremely important part.

@BronyAirman2552  
Understood…

@OneUglyDiamondDog  
Because Americans already drink outrageous amounts of alcohol and eat food that the rest of the world says is very unhealthy.
 
I’m sorry, I’m sterotyping.

@BronyAirman2552  
Exactly my point! So why haven’t we, as a country, made this an official holiday yet?! It’s baffling!

@OneUglyDiamondDog  
Yeah. A week full of drinking beer and eating sausage does sound fun.

@Vinyl Fluff  
Yes, and the same goes for Halloween (my favorite holiday). Still, there’s nothing at all wrong with celebrating them.

@BronyAirman2552  
S’all right, I was just venting a bit. Still, I would LOVE it if Octoberfest WAS made an official American holiday.

@OneUglyDiamondDog  

 
The Catholic church co-opted two pagan celebrations, one for the winter solstice and one for fertility and celebration of new life, to create Christmas and Easter. For Christmas, the description as written in the bible contradicts the season being winter, but the Catholic church made the date “official”, and Christians have followed it since. And there’s evidence they did the same for Easter.
 
They did it to try to ease pagans into switching religions. “Oh, you have a winter solstice and a spring celebration? Well, we have celebrations then, too!” It was one of many things they tried to get pagans to convert.

@OneUglyDiamondDog  
I’m not an American. We still celebrate Thanksgiving though, but instead on the second Monday of October

You’d be surprised at the origins of a LOT of holidays! Though for the life of me, I STILL can’t figure out why we haven’t made Octoberfest into an official, national holiday (or week, like Thanksgiving). I mean, c’mon! An entire WEEK dedicated to drinking beer and eating sausages, as well as something for all the German-Americans (like myself) to celebrate about our ancestral culture? What’s not to love!?

@OneUglyDiamondDog  
No it doesn’t. I just think it’s ironic that a holiday about love had such violent origins.

@BronyAirman2552  
Doesn’t make his martyrdom any less significant.

And it turn out snu-snu in dragon means an insult

@OneUglyDiamondDog  
Ah Valentines day. The holiday of love created when a guy was used as target practice by roman soldiers.

@BronyAirman2552  
Perhaps because it’s so close to Valentine’s Day, and the fandom is feeling…“desperate”.

There has been a lot of snu snu memes recently

Spike: “Can’t we just cuddle?”  
Ember: “WE’LL CUDDLE AFTER!!!”  
Thorax: “Room for one more?”  
Ember stares at Thorax with a long awkward silence.  
Ember “…F yay K YEAH THERE’S ROOM FOR MORE!”

I have no objections to this!
