6. No, it's just that I'm sure I have the avian flu and probably
spina biffida and I can just tell there's a heart attack coming, to say nothing of the menengitis and hepatitis that I know I got at the restaurant, so I need to stay away from any other germy areas.

I ate a HUGE dinner, but there was absolutely NO protein (outside the pat of butter for the taters) so I am now TOTALLY STARVED mere hours later.

22. We usually cut the turkey the night before
it's a lot easier that way and no one has to look at a cooked bird carcass if this don't want to.

Harry Potter sucks? How could they say that :(

23. The turkey was disassembled
but it's still a big dead bird.

Yeah, my shitty little cousins said it was boring.

And then there was the totally predictable family fight that ruined an otherwise nice get-together. :eyes:
