Welcome to Search Ironic Mom, a new series where I (a) take actual search terms that have led people to my blog, and (b) answer the search query.
Today’s search term inquiry falls under the category of American Thanksgiving. Since the majority of my readers are American and since both sides of my family originally settled in the US before migrating to Canada some 100 years ago, I think it’s fitting that I wish you Happy Thanksgiving….with humour.
Here is a screenshot of five search terms that led people to my blog this week:

Whether you’re celebrating a holiday or not, may your weekend be filled with laughter. And to all my wonderful American readers, Happy Thanksgiving, eh?

Your turn:
Choose a holiday of your choice.
What phrases from it can be read inappropriately?
I’ve got some whipped cream for your slice of pie.
Now everything Thanksgiving sounds a little sordid to me.

Sorry. I’m good at ruining perfectly innocuous ideas…
Awesome! I just burst out into laughter and may have snorted in the middle of the Lasik MD waiting room.
Excellent.
I hope it wasn’t while the laser was pointed at your eye.
Hey, Leanne, I found a list of even more Thanksgiving sayings that sound dirty but aren’t and posted them on my blog today (and thought of you in the process, lol). Here’s an example: “Tying the legs together keeps the inside moist.”
Gobble, gobble,

A fab list! Check it out, folks.

Hilarious! I’m reading this in the school playground and laughing out loud.
Excellent. Does anyone think you’re maniacal? 😉
A little brushing of egg whites will make your nuts glossy as they bake…..
I spit out my tea!
I wonder if the Cowboys will pull it out again this year.
True. They have that annoying desire to dominate all the time.
Love. it.
🙂
What a fantastic idea I hope you do this as a blogfest sometime lol 🙂
Happy Thanksgiving!
Good idea! Happy Thanksgiving, Catherine!
Adding a little milk and butter makes pounding your potatoes easier.
Doesn’t it just… 🙂
What a creative little minx you are!
Brilliant work!
Thanks, TH!
Oh sweetie, you don’t want to encourage me with this? Do you? I mean, I’m just going to take you straight to the “pee-can” and ask for the biggest piece you think I can handle. And you know I can handle a lot. Also, I want it with whipped cream, #iykwim. Duh.
I knew you’d be all over this, Renzay. And I should’ve guessed you were a whipped cream lover.
Someone beat me to the cream/pie line! Nearly died laughing over the nuts comment.
I know. The nuts comment is nuts.
“This tastes even better the morning after.” IYKWIM.
I almost chocked, I was laughing so hard…
Oh my – great post and fantastic comments! I’m giving thanks for the giggle. Oh – and you spelled humor wrong. 😉
Ha about humour! And yes, my readers are hilarious…
100% pure awesome. I might have to text a few of these to friends and family today. Thanks!!
Happy Thanksgiving to you, T!
It makes sense that Thanksgiving could border on a 1-900 line, considering it’s the biggest food day of the year AND most foods seem to have the ability to inspire a bit of ahem-and-I-think-you-know-what-I-means. I frequently find myself deleting things in my blog for that very reason. My husband convinced me I shouldn’t title one of my old posts on a homemade backyard Slip & Slide as The Knock-off Wet Banana or even The Black Banana, which is unfortunately what it was actually called.
Laughing! How do these names make it out of marketing departments?
I just did the exact same thing, but with a completely different focus – mine is about marriage break ups!
I find some of the search tersm very interesting. I did it with all the qatarsex seaches I get too, a while back. I mention that to Angie – call your articles anything you like! It can be quite amusing!
Happy Thanksgiving!
A fascinating topic, for sure. Here’s the link, everyone. http://teamoyeniyi.com/2011/11/25/now-you-want-to-break-up/
And check out her blog. It’s fab!
Fabulous. I think I’d have to go with Christmas. I always thought there was something dirty-sounding about jingling someone else’s bells. And hanging balls on the tree. And sitting on Santa’s lap. …I’ll stop now.
A veritable minefield of inappropriateness. I love it.
