Thanksgiving and Christmas family dinner

[MyTripisCut]

I'm not a big holiday person myself.

Honestly, before I had kids I used to get super depressed for this crap. I actually like delivering toys to people this time of year, but it makes me sad.

I can't wait to go to work Black Friday. No joke.

I am on vacation this week and asked my on car and PDS if I had to come in on Saturday. They said they would see me early Monday morning.

I remember years ago when I was still married having dinner with her family when I suggested that her brother get a "real job".

So what did he do back then?

So what did he do back then?

He was a laborer for a local DPW.

He is now a country DPW superintendent.

Family. You either love them or hate them. What was your worst or best experience at Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner?

Do you have an hour ???
Lol

 

[burrheadd]

I won't mention the time I told my brother and sister in-law to and get out my house. That went over well.

Because they wouldn't give you any "likes"

Sure! My family gatherings are few and far between so there is no drama. It shocks me to hear what goes on with other families. Lol.

Not to be rude, but it sounds like he could afford to hire you to do it for him.

My ex wife's dad and his brother ( who were both in there 60s) got in a knock down drag out each accusing the other of drinking the last of a bottle of bourbon one had to go to hospital broken nose

Dumbasses both of them I drank the last of the booze but had a new bottle in the car
All they had to was ask

Nothing better than screwing with the in-laws

My wife ignored me , but his wife just gave me a stink eye !

We had a fist fight where an uncle and a cousin (not his son) ended up in the emergency room. That was probably the best one.

Was alcohol involved? Or should I even need to ask?
