My mind is blank, so now I'm hauling out the dryer lint. I didn't expect to have to rely on it so quickly, but I've been in a daze all day. I blame my biological processes. You don't want to know any more than that.
So, I'm thankful for the dryer lint I pull out of the lint trap each time I dry a load. Having dryer lint means I have access to a dryer--I'm grateful I don't have to do my laundry by hand at the side of a river. Having dryer lint means that my life is enhanced by electricity--I don't have to live in the dark or without my precious, precious computer. Having dryer lint means that I have a place to put the dryer--I have a roof over my head and a place to sleep. Having dryer lint means that I have clothes to wear. Removing dryer lint means I have the use of my hands and my brain and my eyes. And according to my very own Shoebox Princess, having dryer lint means I have an endless supply of firestarter that could come in designer holiday colors! Ergo, I am thankful for dryer lint.

And taking the dryer lint out means you're less likely to burn your house down. Huzzah!
I'm thankful for that too. I didn't have electricity for a few months on vacation and had to do my own laundry. Totally sucked. Bloody knuckles, crunchy t-shirts, yick. I love my dryer, but my washer more I do believe. I like meeting new friends on the net too.
Amen to Abby's comment, since we just rescued our house from spontaneous combustion due to dryer lint.
Well, wasn't THAT quite roundabout! Yes, we do have to be thankful for the inconveniences that come with our conveniences, don't we.
HAHAHAHAHA (you make some good points)
This, too, is very good. It's like a parable. And there's something else - I think you can use dryer lint to stuff things. Like pillows and stuff. It's clean, it's soft, it's free.
I'm thankful for toilets and clean running water. Really, really thankful.
