The worst family member you will have to encounter this holiday season...
- Thread starter TheButchQueen
- Start date
For the second year in-a-row, my mom shipped my dad down to Florida to be with his sisters. My mom and me are going to the mansion up the street for Thanksgiving. My brother does Thanksgiving down in CT with his wife's family [that is their holiday] and my mom doesn't care for the holiday.
Course come Christmas, my brother and his wife will be up here with my dad and I get the joy of hearing my dad call my sister-in-law a Protestant whore with no morals. At least I have no BF atm for my dad to bitch about.

A toss up between a brother and an in-law, but suffice it to say the sibling and I do not speak, save for rare occasions when he answers the phone at his house and I am calling to speak to one of my nieces/nephews or his wife. Everyone else in my family loves me, and they don't understand why we do not speak, but other than having the same parents, and growing up in the same household, we are two different people (and only about 2 years apart, so it's not an age gap issue).
With the in-law, it's a sense of constant drama over trivial daily events, upon whose focus one must pay utmost attention. While some of the stories are entertaining, a play-by-play about the drama at Whole Foods when said person stopped in for some cashews is a bit much, especially when it's heard for the third time because someone else may not have heard it. It's not that I dislike her, just that I wish she'd save some of the trivial anecdotes and get to the really entertaining stories, with less repetition -- editing the material for consumption by varied parties would be appreciated.

Thanksgiving is, I think, the "best" holiday of the year, bar none. Yes, better than Christmas!
And definitely well more "laid back and chill" than Christmas usually is. Thanksgiving is more often shared with good/special friends than Christmas is. The two holidays that define the borders of "observed" summer (Memorial Day at the end of May; Labor Day at the beginning of September) are of course nice, but they're little more than having "the Monday off" even though the ENTIRE WEEKENDS of both are treated as holidays by many. Usually there are few social or family events associated with these two weekends.
Those two holidays are meaningless to me, also, because I don't have any ordinary "desk job" hours at all, and Sundays for me are the same as Wednesdays (etc.)

None. I've quit doing big holidays with useless family members. It was nothing for me to have 20+ people over and things always turned ugly. Too much alcohol, memories and hurt feelings. BION, as a child, one Christmas dinner was interrupted by the SWAT team as a gun was pulled on my mom. So no more big family dinners for me, thanks. And it's wonderful!!!
My sister, she's contributed negatively to my life more than any other person .. ever.. without any real redeeming qualities except sharing similar genetic material. Aside from her, there will be all the in-laws that are now apparently requisites at our functions since she got engaged.. Sometimes there are more of them than us in our own home and they're loud and have a million inside jokes... They're nice enough people but they're just too much to handle.

Luckily, my cunt of a little sister isn't going to be there. Doubly lucky because my ex is going to be staying with me for the last half of December, and I don't really want to know what she'll say about him.
Should have gone to the funeral and try to put a stake through his heart - just to make sure!
I'm a fortunate guy. I'm in Ca. but my entire family is in Pa. I go back for Christmas for around 10 days and for a few days at a time throughout the year. I love and get along great with my 4 brothers and their wives, along with my neices and nephews, who now have wives of their own and newborns this year. I'm the only one that up and left that town to go off to college and then settled down with a man. They all loved Steve and always treated him like any other spouse. I'm grateful for that.
I'm very fortunate that I don't have any family members I can't stand. They're all pretty cool
That's something to be very thankful for.
Me too. All of my family and extended family are great. We have no homophobes, no racists, no people that make you want to pull your hair out. Thanksgiving and Christmas are a blast with my family. We eat, drink, laugh and relax. That's the way it should always be.

Jesus, just found out my Uncle Johnny is apparently bringing a girlfriend over!? I didn't know he still had it in him! This should be interesting...

The one arrogant BIL and his insipid wife are both Jehovah's Witnesses so they don't celebrate. Had everyone else for Canadian Thanksgiving in October and we all had a great time together, nothing new about that.

Nah - my family are all quite bearable as far as I'm concerned. Of course, some of them can't stand some of the others... it's fun to sit back and watch the bickering.

My family consists of my mother, father and an Aunt, so it would have to be my Aunt 
She's a pain in the bum, constantly says negative things and has the most annoying habit of asking people if they've washed their hands after they go to the toilet. Seriously, last time she asked me I told her we didn't do that because it was bad for the environment. I thought she was going to have a heart attack there and then.
As for the rest, I haven't spoken to or seen any of my mothers side of the family for 20 years, and my fathers family are all busy with their own families, I've not seen them in 5 years. I'm never in a rush to see any of my family. I've got absolutely nothing in common with any of them anymore.
