you turn that TV off you might as well cut your nuts off and hang them from the antennae.
While true.. it was at the grandparents house so it wasn’t my place to push back.
We got home later and my mom was like , “I can’t believe she told you to turn the tv off. That was so weird . It would’ve been different if we were watching an r rated movie or something but it was football. “
Luckily my aunt will not be at the thanksgiving dinner at my parents house and we will be watching the cowboys game. My cousin will just have to suck it up and tolerate the tv being on.

Spending it with my mom alone since everyone she invited bailed, including my brother & his wife. Apparently his wife had to ‘work’ only to magically have time to spend all day at another Thanksgiving get together. (They live less than 2 hours away).
Granted my mom can be slightly abrasive sometimes but she isn’t mean. frick these people. Having gumbo instead of a full spread but I don't mind, she makes A+ gumbo.

I don't mean like finger sandwiches and a veggie tray. More like heavy apps - a big homemade gumbo/crab bisque, hearty hot baked dips, sausage balls, etc. Food you wouldn't necessarily sit around the table at the same time to eat, but also not bird food.
Yeah that was not the case. I'm talking chips dip finger sandwiches and veggy tray.. Only happened that one year though. It's traditional now thankfully

Thanksgiving with the family is usually OK except for the one in-law who is always there.
A widower in his late 60's with a thriving business, he's a kind and hospitable guy who is beloved by the family when sober.
Put a few drinks in him and he'll insult his family (including my wife) nonstop, at high volume, until he passes out.
We get disparaging stories, character attacks, and tales of how they "ruined my life" despite all his success.
I figure he's miserable being there alone after losing his wife.
Makes me feel bad for the guy, and worse for the in-laws.

We are at my cousin's house in Mississippi for thanksgiving. All the family is over and he has an Apple TV and used his phone to AirPlay pictures of different family pictures he had from over the years. After he did the slideshow he went to the bathroom. All of the sudden porn just came on the tv and loud as hell and the dude is just roasting some girl. All the family like what the hell and his wife ran to the bathroom and starts banging on the door "are you jacking off in there" he was like huh nooooo. what he forgot to do was take AirPlay off his phone so whatever he is looking at on his phone goes to the Apple TV. Now his wife is pissed and embarrassed and now tomorrow when we all meet for thanksgiving with all the family is going to be really aqward. For me I loved it I thought it was the funniest thing ever. He came out like a hour later being embarrassed and I asked him dude what was that. He told me he hasnt have sex with his wife in weeks and said he was gonna do him lol. Now when all the family comes over tomorrow he doesn't want to be there. I told him just blame your wife and say well if we just had sex none of this would of ever happen lol.

The wife and I are heading up to Arkansas tomorrow for family thanksgiving. Usually not too much drama
My grandfather was hospitalized with pneumonia and a UTI but is better and coming home today. Since it’s at his house I thought they’d cancel but they decided to move forward. Last year me and my dad spent most of the day tuning up his old tractor for him that he uses to cut the 10 acre lot. Then ate and watched the egg bowl
Thanksgiving used to be more entertaining when I had a couple of crazy aunts that started drama but my uncles have divorced them and they no longer come to family events

The fun part of this year's Thanksgiving is that all 3 of my wife's siblings are vegetarians. So the turkey will be the only meat, and we are trying to make sure that all the sides will be vegetarian-friendly. Here's to hoping that the food won't be bland.
Make something with beef but tell them it’s plant based fake meat. But use real meat

Uncle & aunt bailed because aunt (by marriage)’s mother is in bad health. Grandfather bailed since they were going to drive him over. Brother & his wife bailed since she had “work” but I suspect this is just her not wanting to deal with other people (she is slowly turning her marriage to my brother into an island; nobody ever sees them and my brother wont confront her about it.)
My dad & his family are having a large Thanksgiving and asked if I wanted to join but I can’t do that to my mom after everyone else bailed. Wouldn't be right.

Son got tubes in his ears this morning. I had food poisoning last night and into today. This is fricking awesome.
On a good note I got my home office straight. Took 5 hours of straight work.
I am a stacker of shite. When I filed the important stuff I needed about 9 files. Threw out two trash bags.

I usually really look forward to thanksgiving and feel sorry for people who have drama. Typically head to the wife’s family place in MS on some acreage and eat good food. We’re there often so it’s comfortable, lots of room for the dogs to get out from under our feet, light a bonfire, etc. Her dad lives on the property and small number of other family members planning to come eat, both mine and hers, but everyone gets along great.
Wife just texted me that BIL, who recently started spending the work week there after taking a job nearby, told his wife of 12 years over the phone they should “break up”. No other context, active group text yesterday with all of us about who would cook what. My wife is pissed, and says we’re staying home since he presumably lives there now and she can’t face him.
So I got that going for me.

I'm at my FIL's beach house with his 3rd wife and 16 year old son as well as my family of 5. My father in law has a dog with a failing liver and a puppy around 10-12 months old. We have our 13 year old golden retriever that is on a new seizure medicine. They refused to keep their old dog in their bedroom on the top floor, so our old fat golden strolls non stop around the main level and every 5 mins their old dog growls at our dog I guess it just gets nervous since it doesn't feel well. Oh and my dog is deaf, so I don't think it hears their dog growl at all. Or at least, does not give 2 shites at all. Not a huge deal during the day.
This reminds me of a family Christmas at my grandparents on my dads side. See my dads two sisters are very WASPy, like old school southern Baptist proper lady type. As was his parents. Each sister had a little lapdog as a pet they always brought with them. Well on the way there my dad stops for gas and sees a package in the store of that fake rubber dog poop and gets an idea and buys it.
Fast forward to Christmas Eve dinner with the family. Everything is calm and people are talking and enjoying themselves. My dad unknowingly drops the fake dog poo on the carpet. Then loudly says “whose dog shite on the carpet” and the ensuing scene was similar to the baby Ruth bar in the pool in the movie Caddyshack, complete with my two aunts yelling at each other blaming the other ones dog because “no way their dog would do that” and te funniest part was the look of bewilderment on both of the dogs themselves. I still get in tears thinking about how funny that was
