A Slapsgiving gift.
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone.
"You Just Got Slapped" by Marshall (How I Met Your Mother)
"What
is this feeling that's put you in your place?
A hot, red burning on the
side of your face.
You
feel the blood rush to your cheek.
Tears start to fill your eyes.
And
your lips are trembling, but you can't speak.
You're trying, oh, you're
trying not to cry.
You just got slapped!
Across the face, my friend!
You just
got slapped!
Yes, that
really just happened!
Everybody saw it. And everybody laughed and clapped.
It was awesome.
Wait, you just got slapped."
I thought this episode was hilarious, but none of my family watch the show, so I couldn't explain about Slapsgiving! Totally unfair! Awesome clips though.

Glad you liked, NTE. I know, explaining to the non-HIMYM people, the Slap Bet Commish (lily)giving the last second nod,brilliant.
Unfortunately, I couldn't find the actual slap scene/Marhsall's performance from the show on YouTube (yet). So awesome.

Good day!

I'm sure I can use this in everyday conversation. And I will.
I love happy Marshall.

That song was a Slapsgiving day miracle.

I laughed my a$$ off Monday night watching that show. I love the whole Monday line up. It's my only watch TV night.

Carrie, Monday and Fridays are my perfect bookends. I watch nothing in between.
Tiff- You cannot slap my mind either! (Oh, I am so sitting on this one until the next departmental meeting.)

Man, I love that show. However, we are forgoing Slapsgiving in favor of the more conventional holiday, because around here, if you slap someone in the face, you better make sure they can't get to the guns before you.
Homey don't play that.

LOVED that episode. Almost as much as I loved the previous week when they all realized what each other's annoying habit was-Lily's chewing KILLED me.
