Is it a Pagan ritual that was hijacked by the Christians?

    I prefer using plain soap and water to remove it.

    Nah, takes too long. I use a steam thing like an iron, but bigger.

    Do you run your threshing machine off the steam thing?

    No, I don't think that's an actual religiousy holiday. You're confusing it with thanksgiving, where a bunch of halfwits from England went over to America and couldn't manage to feed themselves, so killed some Indians and ate them instead.

    No, the chewy confectionary item from the 80s.

    Edit: They may have been called Splicer.
