November 19, 1620

On This Date in TWISTED-HISTORY! in 1620, the Pilgrims sighted Cape Cod and dropped to their knees in prayer and thanksgiving, as the voyage had been long and physically sickening, with much discomfort with sea sickness and the poor selection of food at the buffet tables. The Mayflower’s crew also dropped to their knees in prayer and thanksgiving as they were going to finally be able to get that bunch of whining, intolerant, petty puritans off their ship, and they could finally go back to drinking their daily beer ration. They were also looking forward to there being some bacon at the breakfast buffet, as the puritans had not been leaving any for the crew.
