A very video game Thanksgiving

Getting reamed by a 2x4 isnt the only way to fall into a coma

There are two only two ways to truly fall into a deep slumber. The first, to get knocked out by an unseen assailant. The second, to succumb to the siren call of the tryptophan coursing through your blood as youre rocked gently to sleep in the aftermath of Thanksgiving dinner. And for that single solitary med student that reads this, you can just shut your hole, everyone already knows that tryptophan has little to no affect on the human physiology. Jesus youre always such a partypooper.

If getting ready for your Thanksgiving dinner proves to be too much of a hassle, why not invite your favorite video game characters to come help you out? No promises that everything will go according to plan though. Click on to find out how Thanksgiving affects even the most hardened video game characters out there.
