Why do i BOTHER going home for THANKS GIVING

You're a bunch of introverts . I like my family and maybe it's just the Southern culture but my family always eats together and gets along for the most part. I eat with my father's family at least twice a week every since I was a kid.

I think you would be a little butt hurt yourself if you had someone conduct some mumba jumba ceremony at your dinner table because of their "beliefs".

Why celebrate the mumba jumba holiday then? It's THANKS fucking giving afterall.

Why can't people understand this concept: Most of us don't have a problem with our extended families.  It's hard to get everyone to come together when they live all over the place.  So  we only see each other 1 or 2 times a year.

A) I am southern and i was raised eating family dinners every night. Not the typical American sit in front of the tv and zone out while eating junk family. We also talked about our day... this was something i am very grateful for.
B) I like my family too, they just annoy me. Never said i dislike my family. I dislike what alot of them on my mothers side believe and the stupid conversations they want to have.
C) There is no c
D) Want to fight?

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

at least you get along with your old man. when you were a kid did your family rub you in gravy so the dog would play with you? just wondered.
