  • 9.9% - A parent 134
  • 15.1% - A sibling 205
  • 30.3% - An in-law 412
  • 19.8% - Other (specify in the comments) 269

Well, how do you fare compared to the Zeitgeist? Chat up your fellow wooters and let us know how lame this poll was or what obvious choices we missed. For example: Was this poll a) STUPID, b) DUMB, c) POINTLESS or d) ALL OF THE ABOVE?

No one, cause I usually ignore the holidays. Much less stress that way

I wish we were lucky enough to have family to join us for Thanksgiving.

I'll be happy to see the usual Thanksgiving guests (oldest son home from college, Grandma). But could I please have one weekend free of yet more banner ads in my email from the President & First Lady urging me to vote Obama 2012? I wouldn't mind taking a weekend off from ALL political banner ads, for that matter. Concentrate on the important stuff Thanksgiving weekend: cooking, eating, and shopping! (And giving thanks, too!)

your mother!

(i realize it is an old joke and probably not that funny to most but over the years i've found a few friends that use this joke and are not offended in the least, honestly why SHOULD you be?, odds are the person saying this doesn't even KNOW your mother, so don't take offense)

Kudos for allowing it! Now GTFO the disgust and be the better person. Forgive, don't forget, and move forward with spiritual love - for your children, if not for yourself. ;-)

And if that doesn't work, spend Thanksgiving in Vegas, baby! :-D

Please do not increment my Quality Posts count. 69 is a good place to be. ;-)

Forgot to put "no one" as an option. I LOVE my family to death! Hell we are so good together my cousins, and I put together a family crest, and all have matching tattoo's. Now THAT is family togetherness!

Looking forward to seeing 28 of the 29 people coming for Turkey-day. Sister-in-law, oh boy, different story...she is an absolutely crazy nut-case. Crazy nut-case as in borderline personality disorder, everything is poor me, blah, blah, blah!

We all have matching 1978 Trans-Am's up on blocks in the front yard, and one complete set of teeth between us. Last Thanksgiving, my rich uncle bought a new house, and invited us all over to help him take the wheels off of it.

A niece (by marriage) who has 4 children by 3 different men, none of which were ever a husband. Yep and all paid for by your tax dollars. Oh and did I mention she's a methadone addict as well. Yep that's being paid for by our tax dollars too. It just disgusts me every Thanksgiving.

Although I am glad my step-brat and eldest child from the past do not come. They would drive everyone crazy with bullshirt and lies..

X wife would not be welcome, nor two of the kids she has convinced that the she was the victim, although she asked for and filed the divorce then told others while she didn't want me, she did not want anyone else to either. Persona non grata!

Brother-in-law. It's all about him! Talks incessantly and brings every conversation to be about him, or will top anything that anyone says.

I usually stay out of the same room, so as to have as little to do with him as possible.

It's only ever my immediate family, and I see them pretty much every day anyway. So, it's like any other day, but with more food. Best holiday ever.

I said "parent." Both of mine, and both of my wife's are dead. Zombies for Thanksgiving?
All they'd want would be the brains, and brains aren't included in the giblet package.

Then, after dinner, they'd just sit around trying to pick everyone else's brains. Literally.

This will no doubt disgust someone. TFB.

Since i'm working on turkey day, on 2nd shift, it pretty much makes this poll useless for me.

No one else is not looking forward to seeing the sheriff (again)? Holidays, family and guns go together like.. holidays, family and guns! Something to do after you get the wheels off your uncle's new house...

I'm happy to see everyone I can! I have a lot of family to see during the holidays, and unlike most I generally enjoy the traveling.

There are 10 types of people in this world: those who understand binary, and those who don't.

Thanksgiving is for spending time with loved ones - so it's just me and the dog! I have to put up with family the rest of the year - this is my long weeked to get a break from them!

They're all held in varying degrees of affection, but the more the merrier.

Well, another day has passed and I didn't use algebra once.

I haven't been home with my family for thanksgiving in the past 3 years. For me, it's been "stay at my place while all my housemates are gone" but this year I have a boyfriend. ...But he'll probably be gone for thanksgiving too! :{
