^I assume that the food was sitting on the stove hot, and with a lot going on, ppl could eat at their leisure?
I'm more confused as to WHY this transpired in the first place. Isn't the whole point of getting together to eat the meal together, at one time? Sure there are other activities but the meal is integral.
I’m watching the Cowboys and Raiders game and my mom’s husband starts talking about the Rittenhouse case. I wasn’t interested in listening so gave him the yeah yeah yeahs. He then pulls out his phone and says check out all of these pictures (memes) my buddy sent. I said no I’m good and he then proceeds to read and explain them to me. One of them was a meme that said “bring up politics at thanksgiving and you won’t have to buy as many Christmas presents.” I almost stopped him and said looks like you have a few less to buy this year. Kind of wish I did now.
Dad tried some bullshit when I said the conference I'm going to next week is requiring vaccinations. Even though he and my mom got boosters, he started aimlessly flinging shit like "I can't trust Biden" and "Fauci is complicit, he lied." I gave him a disgusted look and told him I didn't drive up all the way to my brother's to talk politics and he shut up and was fine after that. I just learned when I got back home that my SIL isn't going to vaccinate her kids so I'm glad I didn't know that beforehand or that she brought it up.
Mrs. Celemo just found out ten minutes before dinner that Meatball has porn on his phone. She is upset
Son ran his head into a brick wall. Probably getting stitches in his forehead for the second time before the age of 4.
My DIL asked me my opinion on the case last week. This was after 8 hours of drinking and watching the Bruins face fuck (consensually) sc I went on an hour rant of the evils of white supremacy in the American justice system.
"Well honey, maybe he was just doing his own research like his mom. At least his only gives his phone viruses."
SIL hooked up my wife and I with some and I'm here to say, I can't believe I've lived life this long without it
tbf the shit a kid can find online now is a far fuckin cry from playboy but wtf do I know, I was groping Ashley [redacted] and quivering in my shorts in the library at that age
FIL called his current wife by his ex wife’s name (my wife’s mom). My wife and I both heard it and watched in pure joy as the after dinner show began.
This probably won’t land here because you need to know how much of a narcissist crazy person my FIL is, but my holiday is made by this doozy. His son is going through some self inflicted shit (as I’ve mentioned itt) and bailed last minute on thanksgiving. “The truth is, <son’s name> didn’t come because he didn’t want to face up to what he is giving up. He sees me, with everything a man could want, and knows he’ll never have it. I’m his standard and it’s unattainable for him now.” Me listening to this in real time: o_O
