5. My mother asking about who I'm dating (and funny, my response that I'm having casual sex with Hells Angels bikers never goes over well,but yet, she asks every year)
6. Someone getting drunk

I truly detest family holidays... I shudda gone to the islands.

You could substitute "a dirty old man from southwest Ohio that you met on the internet" for Hells Angels biker....

I can live without the multiple trips to the grocery store to get the crap that you know that you already have SOMEWHERE in your house. My first repeat trip of the day : ALLSPICE.

That stuff from the can?

That's not cranberry sauce- it's CANberry sauce!

and I like it.

Oh man, someone mentioned Red Cabbage Casserole. Not only does that sound more horrible than my creamed onions, but it implies that some mom actually made it from scratch! I've been around kimchee and sauerkraut, so I know what hell must smell like. To think that a beloved family member would subject a house full of relatives to the evil miasma that is cooked cabbage... I can feel dry heaves coming on just thinking about it.

Football. Really, it's fine, but it's the only thing we can watch at my house.
And the cranberry sauce with the chunks in it. God that's so disgusting!
