Shit that you overheard during Thanksgiving (2021)

[Jimmy Hopkins]

I’ll be making brocolli casserole instead of green bean casserole thanks to recommendation from @Fialovy

Well, time to watch my racist uncle get into a 3 hour long fight with my really liberal aunt about race relations in this country. Good luck uncle, you need it. I know it's the most stereotypical thing to happen at Thanksgiving, but it always happens at my house, and every year gets more hilarious.

 

[Cabbage Farmer]

Are you decolonizing your thanksgiving?

 

[zero-who]

My dad forgot to defrost the turkey in time and now we have to wait until the weekend, apparently?

 

[Maskull]

I should have brought more alcohol.

 

[mindlessobserver]

Mother brought up how wonderful it was a local church was hosting Afghan refugees.

Ihaveanopinion.jpg help me kiwis. I am screaming inside.

 

[Pringles Can]

I should have brought more alcohol.

Let's be honest. we all should have.

I'm baking a giant ham because that's all I care about regarding Thanksgiving.

Ham > Turkey

 

[Uncle Phil]

No horrible shit to report. There's nothing like Mom's turkey dinner -- goddamn the potatoes and gravy and stuffing were good. The nieces and nephews were less shitty at the table than last year. And of my generation, only cool people came and no insufferable genderspecial cousins.

I made sure to bring a wheelbarrow for my alcohol consumption, this gonna be fun!

My Thanksgiving story is that I'm really tired and I don't have to cook this year.

 

[Johan Schmidt]

My GF is american so I celebrated it with her. She said: 'If you think about it. Sweet potatoes are just ethnic nornal potatoes.'

 

[Barbarella]

10 fucking people. I’m cooking for ten. And I’m cold and can’t get up.

 

[Meiwaku]

Does your gathering not have a racist family member? Be the change you want to see in the world.

 

[Kheapathic]

How I spend most of my Thanksgivings.

Unloved and at Denny's.

 

[Sourceress]

Happy Thanksgiving, farmers! I'll spend it in spirit with y'all, since none of my family can make it. I've got a big turkey and lots of mashed potatoes and gravy so it'll be great anyway.

 

[Molester Stallone]

Woke up this morning to a flooded bathroom. Best case scenario I can walk into a big box hardware store tomorrow at 6am to get what I need for repairs. All in all it's not too bad. I'm pretty sure the first Thanksgiving wasn't held with running water either.

 

[Soycast Guy]

grandma puts too much butter in the mashed potatoes. You like yellow mashed potatoes?

 

[Shidoen]

Grandpa supports Joe Biden but I love it when he rants about Fags and Niggers on Thanksgiving.

 

[Fastest Hand In The East]

I've heard this is when american uncles take their relatives to play the snake catcher in the basement.
