(life) for nonUS folks: creative ways to respond to Thanksgiving wishes?

[karenstanleyma-3]

Every year when US Thanksgiving rolls around, some listmembers decry the many Chinese who wish all foreigners a Happy Thanksgiving assuming, whatever their nationality, that they celebrate the holiday.

To forestall complaints this year, I'd like people instead to think ahead and post various creative (or even non-creative) ways to respond to these holiday wishes.  (Do remember list guidelines, as I'm afraid some of these could slip a bit beyond the bounds of friendliness.  Suggestions to shove objects up various portions of people's anatomies are *not* what I'm looking for.)

I usually just say "Thank you," when people wish me a Merry Christmas (even though I'm not Christian), so maybe a few will work for other occasions as well.

Perhaps this should go on until Christmas as well?
