    Default One reason I hate these BS holidays! Rant.

    It’s days like this that remind me of how dysfunctional and fu%$ and families can be. I’m not much for holidays; in fact if they banned them all now, I would not lose any sleep over it. Big waste of time in my book, but moving on…last year we had thanksgiving at my house, like 10 people. All good. This year, everyone more or less assumed (including me) the same thing would happen. GF’s parents said they were going to come also all the way from MO to MA, OK fine, that would be like 15 people or so.

    Her parents cancel like last week. No big deal, down 2.

    My brother and family decide they want to do their own thing, and let me know this last week...ok fine, down 4 more.

    My sister says she’s going to NY and wont make it…ok..down another one, leaving just one person, my father. No reason to even make the dinner thing, I just make a reservation at a place and figure me and the GF will take my father out for Thanksgiving dinner.

    He calls this morning, and cancels, using some lame excuse about weather and traffic, though it’s sunny and traffic is very light...great.


    So after all that, it’s just me and the GF looking at each other like “what the fu*&?!”

    To give my father an excuse, he is 83 and all that, but he pulls that last minute crap all the time, or at least the few times per year I see him. But, I offered to come down his way last week if he would just find a place that’s open, and he was all “No, I will come up to see you.”

    So, she’s reading a book and I am on the comp, thanx a bunch to my ever loving family….not. I don’t really care if they wanted to do the whole Thanks giving thing or not, that’s not the issue. The issue for me is that due to their flaking last minute crap, we are left with nothing to do. Had I known, would have freakin’ booked something, or hooked up with friends, or what ever.

    So, will probably find a Chinese place open to eat and see a movie or something...

    Typical BS. Rant off.

    Sorry for your feelings of rejection.

    Imagine how your girlfriend feels with you posting on the net instead of spending the day with her.

    Bet she could use some cuddling on the couch - reward the one's who stick by ya.

    (I say this because I have an even emptier house than you!)

    (a) nothing to do with rejection as noted, but wasting my time. (b) will spend all day with GF (c) enjoy the day.

    I treat most days like a holiday, and be thankful! This way i don't get caught up in the "rat race" to buy, share, visit and care on a certain day.

    I don't do holidays well. I hate the roads, the theft, the needless murders for ANYTHING from desperate people. I feel for those who have to celebrate in a shelter, dah it goes on and on.

    I have my mother & daughter out of a full house of family once...so yea, it's never going to be the same.

    Everyday is a holiday, i can buy a present tomorrow and give it...i don't have to do this crap on "Christmas"!

    Alot of bad comes to many with these holidays. It's sad.

    I ducked out of Thanksgiving with my family because I don't want to spend my holiday holding my breath while they trash other family members and then trash each other! I'm so happy for those with reasonably functional families. That's a very good and lucky thing!

    Ah, the I hate the Holidays thread....Good stuff! They can't be over fast enough for me!

    Thank God my place is too small to host any sort of serious celebration....who knows, maybe I planned it that way! Anyway, spent the day with the immediate family and will take mom out to a really nice place for dinner in a few hours, she, like me, loves thanksgiving as it is the only truly non-commercial holiday and hates the majority of the human race. So we celebrate together and snarl at anyone who bugs us!

    Happy Thanksgiving to all!

    Christmas? Bah Freekin' Humbug!

    Pamela, I like your way of thinking! The holidays are so overwhelming.

    I'm about to go to work now (we have to work 2 holiday shifts). Let's hope people need strippers after turkey. I wish I had a turkey outfit or something.

    I like Thanksgiving. Its always around my dad's birthday, so we always had a combo party on this night. I remember all of the other immigrants in town coming out, each with a gift and bottle of vodka in hand. They would take 2 hours to get through the shots and zakuski. Almost everyone was drunk by the time the turkey came out.

    I always performed for the group, on piano, or a dance number.

    Oh wait, I'm sure I forgot some seriously heinous shit too. But I would rather remember this stuff, than think about my drunken father beating the crap out of my mom after everyone left.

    The holidays do, indeed, suck.

    Sorry your whole family flaked out. You're probably better off.

    I like Thanksgiving, Halloween and Passover but I'm with you on Christmas, aka "the gift-buying orgy." It makes me crazy and anxious having to buy presents for people. I despise it. I'm not much better about receiving gifts, either.

    Awww Pamela.



    Reason 3,064 why stripping is the best.


    Part of me always wished my family was like Katrine's, but they are stone cold sober (I have like 4 immediate people in it) due to the fact of their family being the way Katrine's would be "after Thanksgiving was over."
