That doesn't sound like a "worst" thing at all

They are not appetizing past a couple of bites.

I'm not much of a potato fan to begin with, but to say they could use a lot less butter is an understatement.

Not food-wise, but one year, after my MIL nearly died from taking too many diet pills, my FIL got all crazy nostalgic around the holidays and video taped the Thanksgiving meal. Like he set up a camcorder all frat house creeper style with it pointed at the table and recorded everyone eating. I was like WTF??? Why would you want footage of of my BIL's high-pitched redneck voice going "pass the peekan pie, mama"?

He unleashed his inner Randy Marsh.

"This in Junior here, eating a spud..tasty boy??"

"Sure is, I like dem taters"

My grandma will undoubtedly buy a disposable camera and take pictures of everyone sitting around doing random stuff. She won't tell you when she's taking your picture, so you'll just hear a click and be like "WTF Grandma, I could have at least looked at the camera and smiled for this picture you're going to print out and show me at Christmas".

For what it's worth, I like the off-guard pics. They do a better job of capturing the moment.

Be careful when you go to the bathroom around this guy...

The worst part is that my family won't be doing Thanksgiving together this year. With people being married, they rotate the holidays. Some years, we get the whole family for Thankgiving, some years it's for Christmas. This year, it's Christmas.

So the worst thing about this Thanksgiving will be that only a third of us are there for it.

came down from nemo to spend the week w/my son and his family just south of macon, ga. he's cooking the bird in some kinda outdoor cooker. looks like a deep fryer, but he says it's just hot air kinda shit. i'll give it a try.

Got homemade noodles drying out on the counter top right now. It's my favorite thing about Thanksgiving. Didn't even know it was a thing until I met my wife.
