No, actually, we don't all
No, actually, we don't all agree. These things are a pet peeve of mine in that they aren't actually jokes but are mostly put out by marketing groups with the intended purpose of denigrating the object of supposed humor. And they certainly aren't funny.
Here's funny:
"I plan to celebrate Thanksgiving in the true traditional American way. I'm going to invite a bunch of people to bring food over to my house. We'll eat and drink and have a good time...Then I'll kill them all and take their land."
