This is the OT - I have the help prepare my thanksgiving meal and they keep the throat and broth for their own Christmas meal or Kwanzaa or whatever

What a strange melt. Did your family request that you not cook tomorrow so you’re taking it out here?

But no, I haven’t played that game.

I don't have a fryer or anything to cook the turkey in for the oven so I was going to microwave it


If you don't even have a pan to cook it in the oven, what would it be in for the microwave cooking? The response should have been stop being a dumbass and buy one of those aluminum foil roasting pans and cook it in the oven.

I told him 30 minutes, then turn for an addition five minutes. Was this bad advice?

I had to cover that oven wasn’t an option somehow

Probably should have said it’s broken now or something. His dad mode kicked in tho and focused on the microwaving tho

People are strange, I don't understand how someone makes this into a millennial argument

since I've cooked the turkey for thanksgiving for the last 4 out of 6 years.


What's the overall meaning of 6 years here? What is the relevance of it to the rest of what you are saying? Did you just start having Thanksgivings for the first time 6 years ago? Why not just say since I've cooked the turkey the last 4 years?

“Hey Mom - I’m in charge of the turkey for a Friendsgiving but with the baby and work and all, I don’t have time to do a long roast. How long do you microwave a turkey? Should I just do low power for an hour?”

“I don’t know.”

“It has to be possible, right?”

“Not sure.”

“If you had to guess?”

“Really - no idea.”

Well that was a barrel of laughs.

He cooked it 4 years in a row and everyone hated it so last year and this year, they’re catering.

You know millennials, especially the ones in this thread, are 30+ right?

Such a strange little melt.

You joke but that's an amazing game. But also not Mario and no bosses

And also, chill bruh, ain't got to get all pissy because your cooking sucks and you thought microwaving a turkey was legit

Doesn’t work for all folks, a buddy of mines dad sent him microwave turkey recipes, but the manner in which he texted it was very dad like. He told him the name of the website and then told him the articles authors name and the date it was published and said “scroll down and he tells you there.”

How in the world would she hear me on the second floor when I’m in the basement?

It’s like you didn’t even think that through. Checkmate.
