Joke's on you. I'm spending Thanksgiving alone! Ha!

...ha.

There's so many young people, when the fuck did this happen, how old have I become?

It’s me. Your weird relative.

lol, I’m a weird relative. I’m the crazy uncle showing up after 16 years away who’s gonna freak a bunch of nieces, nephews, and step-siblings out. And you’re damned right I’ll be drunk, stoned, and by badass, gay, NYC self with my uptight Florida family.

Let the good times roll!

Edit: I was upstaged by my brother’s in-laws from china who don’t speak a word of English. How do ya like that? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Whatever. My brother and his wife were there to translate. They were delightful, and everyone had a wonderful time!

Looks like the Andorian took a detour through the Snoop Nebula.

This is my family ... I never get together with them much anymore but when we did ... the weird one was the quiet guy or gal that actually made sense ... everyone else was completely out of the picture. Chaos was normal ... normal to us was chaos.

Hey, I come for the food. Try to talk to me and I'll either keep chewing or respond with a Star Trek reference

I can't eat solid food right now, so I spent most of Thanksgiving with my 82-year-old mother, talking to her while she gave me bad parenting and job advice, and later baked herself and her dogs a turkey leg because her housemate is away and I wasn't going to eat any. That's a bit sad. But still, nice to spend time with her despite all of that. Who knows how many visits I'll have left?

Meanwhile, my wife and daughter were at my in-laws, which is a zoo because she has a ton of relatives. The food is good, but I'm happy for a quieter Thanksgiving.
