Jesus, please don’t do this. Go buy another bird. I’ve heard of these things exploding when frozen and dropped into hot oil. People have been badly injured and great property destruction has been experienced.

If you already knew that and were just playing along, screw you. People get hurt doing dumb shite they read on the internet. Need to put an asterisk or a NSFDA warning on posts like this. If you didn’t know this then I saved your life. You’re welcome.


You are an idiot.

The easiest way to safely thaw a bird is in a brine. And... You can 100% thaw a bird overnight.

Hell, with a large stock pot and stream of cool water you could probably thaw one in two hours.

Makes sense. Turkeys aren’t Arminian.

Not much to contribute but my ex wife was texting me for recipes of dishes I used to cook on Thanksgiving when we were together. I may or may not have omitted or added ingredients. Some of her dishes are going to taste like arse. I know it's petty, but the little things make me happy.

My Thanksgiving has been terrible.
Long story short,
I had to rush to an emergency vet this morning, only to have to euthanize one of our dogs.
But, on a positive note, we did just rescue a dog from the pound that was more than likely going to be euthanized himself.

Sorry, for this. I know our stories in this thread are typically light hearted and humorous.

First Thanksgiving I can remember where we weren’t pissed at each other for political beliefs.

Only like three of us drinking right now though. Probably why.

Our mix is 60% right/ 40% left

All is quiet here. At the in-laws in Dallas and aside from my FIL and MIL getting into an argument over booking flights to Fiji, it’s smooth sailing here. Headed to a friends for a big 30+ person Thanksgiving dinner tonight. Gonna keep it low-key since we have to drive to Austin tomorrow morning.

Guess who is now paying for SIL, BIL, niece, and nephew to go to Disney for two days?


If I were in your shoes. Id possibly be willing to foot the bill for the kids. Absolutely zero chance am I paying for the grown adults, however.

My 75 year old Dad has come under fire for his reaction to seeing Mrs. Claus during the Macy’s Parade:

Who the hell is that slant-eyed oriental?

He then used his fingers to pull his eyelids wide. Excited that my children copied him, he continued doing it during lunch.

Luckily, the food coma has set in and he has fallen asleep in his chair.

My aunt was supposed to bring green bean casserole. She showed up with the ingredients in a Rouses bag and told my mom “some assemble required.” My mom said something inappropriate and both stormed off as I was left to make the green bean casserole.

Flash forward after lunch and 2 old fashions later: Now the aunt is saying her vision is blurry from cataract surgery. Yet she drove 2 hours here with my 98 year old grandma. Now I’m drinking a pot of coffee because my wife and mom are too drunk to drive them home.

I’m so miserable. I do this every year. I eat pretty clean all year long but lose my mind at Thanksgiving. My body is in calorie overload shock right now

On a positive my mom finally nailed my late Grandmas dressing recipe to perfection. It only took 4 years
