-So, now I thought I'd share some of my favorite
Turkey Day traditions from you guys.
This first one is from @5sosroze.
She says, "All my cousins in my family
have a contest to see
who can gain the most weight during dinner.
One time, my cousin got caught wearing ankle weights."
-Oh, come on. -"Eh, no, no, no.
Pull your pants up. Uh-oh!"
That's kind of a fun bit.
This one's from @sweatybetty. -Oh.
-She says, "Every Thanksgiving to avoid talking politics,
my family starts a debate over whether or not
Ross and Rachel were on a break."
"We were on a break!"
This is from @doxichick.
She says, "My husband's been known to stay in the bathroom
so he doesn't have to help clean up.
Last year, we went up to check on him
and heard him snoring through the door."
Not bad.
-[ Snoring ]
-This one's from @Ryand845845.
He says, "Every Thanksgiving, my cousins and I
take a mysterious walk for 20 minutes
and come back in a much better mood."
-Wow! Exercise does you good. -Sure, sure, sure.
-Fresh air. -This one is from @mmmack.
-Mmmm! -There's extra M's in there.
Mmmack3.
She says, "Grandma's rolls were
the best thing about Thanksgiving.
Years after she was gone, my cousin brought Sara Lee rolls.
Turns out, grandma's recipe was
a bag of frozen rolls from Sam's Club."
Some grandmas are sneaky, you know?
-Yeah. How's your grandma?
-This next one is from @k8hernandez.
She says, "We put gravy in the rooster pitcher
and make barfing sounds when we pour it out of the beak."
-Oh, my God. -Cock-a-doodle -- Bleh!
-Gobble, gobble, bleh!
-This one's from @rheaofsunshine but "ray" is spelled R-H-E-A.
-Oh, nice. [ Laughter ]
-It didn't sound like you meant nice.
-No, that's...
-She says, "My uncle shows up at 7:00 a.m. for the 5:00 p.m.
Thanksgiving dinner.
He sits around until about 4:00 p.m.
Then he decides he doesn't want to wait any longer
and drives three hours back home every single year."
"Alright. That's it. I'm going to Burger King.
I don't care."
This one is from @redteebs. -Yeah.
-Cowboy. -Oh, yeah.
-Redteebs.
-"I'm Red Teebs." -"The pleasure is all mine."
He says, "We hold hands and pray before Thanksgiving dinner.
One year, while I was leading the prayer,
my uncle had to hold hands
with my cousin's new boyfriend, who he hated.
I said a 10-minute prayer."
"Because Lord knows we all appreciate each other.
We want to thank you for the silverware,
starting with the forks, going to the bigger fork.
Of course, the spoon that you love.
♪♪
The dessert spoon, of course.
The candles are beautiful, as well.
Thank you."
This one's from @Williamtmyers1.
He says, "My family used to get our Christmas tree
after lunch on Thanksgiving -- not from a store, though.
We'd wander through the woods with a shotgun until we found
the perfect tree, then shoot the trunk until it fell down."
♪ Ain't that America? ♪
♪ You and me ♪
♪ Oh, ain't that America? ♪
♪ Something to see, baby ♪
-Timber!
-This next one is from @Katefraley2.
She says, "My second-craziest aunt --"
First of all, let's just start there.
I love that. "My second-craziest Aunt."
-Yeah, not the first one. -No.
"My second-craziest aunt brings Beanie Babies with her
to Thanksgiving and uses them to put on shows
for whoever she's sitting next to."
"This one's rare."
This last one is from @galave.
She says, "My mom names the turkey
and won't put it in the oven
until we all first slap his butt.
We've gotten used to her going
around the house and yelling,
'Who hasn't slapped Tom's butt yet?'"
