this is the exact philosophy i have!
I know a lot of you give me shit, but that is classic getbig.
The ironic thing is I bet a lot of us would enjoy hanging out and cutting up at a BB meet, expo or whatever.

No "getbig", I am not looking for a homo love fest or sexual 3 way with some of you.  :o

Sounds like a quality family.....plus if most of the guys posting in the thread were my relatives, I wouldn't want to go either.....


Haha ;D
every holiday is like that.it's a tradition on who gets what holiday.it's a running joke in our family that when house shopping you need to look for a place with a big enough room to sit everybody in case someone dies and they need to take over a holiday ;D

Thanks for making me feel better about myself, no matter how much my parents piss me off, it's better than being an orphan, that's 50 pounds underweight.

P.S. my families members all have small ears/noses.

But aren't you the guy who doesn't go to family gatherings because Daddy played Tummy Sticks with you when you were little? :-\ Or was that Basile who said that?

The whole trip sucked. Coming down there and revisiting with family after a 2 year hiatus reminded me why it took me so many years to lose my virginity. I listened to my grandmother and mom rant and rave how fat and ugly i had gotten in the last 2 years (205lbs in single digit bf.. probably 9-10%). For some reason i didn't think telling them it was test bloat would help my cause. I then had to eat dinner at my grandmothers while my aunt brings her tumor ridden dog that is on the verge of dying, yet the insist on keeping it alive like Terry Shiavo with steroids and multiple surgeries. It was totally blind and as i watched it stumble around the room and my Mom cutting the tukery i slowly lost my appetite.

My autistic second cousin was running around telling everyone the TV would be working properly in a few minutes and my whole right wing conservative side of the family ranted about the Rapture and how they were all stocking up canned foods for the event. Me and my dad ate in disgust in a private room away from the rest of the family. I hate these family get togethers. Why do we have them :(

I had a great thanksgiving, I refused to be around people (family) that I don't like.  My thanksgiving dinner was limited to close family (people I love) and it went very well!

I get nervous before these events too. I don't think it is me so much. I just smile and nod. I don't really speak unless spoken to but i occasionally prod around to see where everyone is at in life. I mostly like listening to the elders and their stories but they are usually drowned out by the young and their stupid dribble about the muslim obama and how the world is going to end. One time we hosted the dinner at our house and sure enough my stupid uncle sneaks in a family prayer. Me and my dad gave each other side ways looks and chuckled and let them do their mumba jumba ceremony. I glanced over at my brother to see him bow his head out of respect which i gave him hell for when they left.

Dead on... I've got the same group on one side of my family...  wow...

Just because some person may have some obscure geteic copnnection is not any reason for eitehr of us to feel compelled to spenmd the holidays together.

Hallmark card?

I know the term "hot mess"...even then, you're still not "hot" and never will be...

The only affect I get from yours is laughter...honestly.

Cut your head off and perhaps a better one will grow back...go ahead, try it. ;D....You worry entirely to much about your appearance but if I looked like a plucked rooster I would also.

Not sure about the others but in my case I don't "hate" any of my relatives.
It is more a case of not really knowing them over the years.
Think about it. If you only see thse folks once a year at T day or Xmas, and at the rare funeral or wedding, how well do you get to know them? NOT MUCH.

50/50 split. Growing up with pessimistic parents will bring you closer to the "Truth" but fuck you up royally and make you not trust a soul. Optimistic parents will make you fall in love with everyone where you end up like Coach and Howard. Either way, you're fucked.

Mostly alcoholics in my family(Irish and Swedish heavy drinkers) so the Thanksgiving turkey usually burns in the oven.

One year two of the fireman actually stayed for dinner to insure that the fire was completely out and would not be 'rekindled' by the burnt kitchen's inebriated inhabitants.

Nowadays when the cousins all gather for holiday activities no one drinks too much and some of us claim that none of us are alcoholics because alcoholism skips generations, but proceeds on to the next. Any agreements with that?

As sons and daughters of extreme alcoholics we have some unbelievable stories to tell, some funny but most very fook'd up, so we laff and cry a lot when we gather together over the holidays and talk story of holidays gone by and our drunken relatives when they gather together to celebrate the art of excessive drinking.

We miss them though.

Any alcoholics in this GetBig gang?
