How are you going to deal with them/him/her/it? Do you just opt out by inviting yourself over a friend's house? or choose to spend it with your significant others' family? How do these blood bunions annoy you? I look forward to some of your funny stories...

I don't know if this is funny or not, but I cannot eat any meal, including Thanksgiving, with my in-laws. Every holiday my husband's sister opens up the refrigerator and starts eating out of it. She won't even wait for dinner to be served.
She just stands there and opens up containers and shovels it in. It's disgusting. When she's done, she rolls into the living room and lays down on the sofa. It's always a brand-new sofa because every year she manages to break at least one of them.
After she wakes up from her food-induced coma, she starts screaming and swearing, usually because she's laying on the floor in the rubble of what used to be a couch, and of course the only way to shut her up is to give her some cookies, and it just goes on and on like that all day.
I get so grossed out and so stressed out that I have no appetite at all, so now we spend Thanksgiving with my family every year. And yes, my sister-in-law needs help, and she does take antidepressants, but she can't get to the doctor because she can't fit into her Honda Civic anymore.
My in-laws have a minivan, and she can fit into that, but my in-laws can't drive because they are under so much stress over all of this that they take way too much Xanax to get behind the wheel.
So that leaves my husband and I, but we can't take her to the doctor either because we choose to be productive members of society, meaning we work full time. We don't worry about her situation, though, because hard-working taxpayers all over America are contributing to her welfare checks, and we're obviously providing her with plenty of food stamps.
I guess in the end everything works out the way it should.

aunt, uncle, mother, father, step mother, grandparents..just about covered everybody. Our holidays are so fake...One minute they are talking about how thankful they are for us and then when our back is turned they criticise us. A local hospital offers free meals for those who have nobody or are homeless/homebound. I always go there and volunteer on Thanksgiving..It makes me feel good to help others. I WISH they did something like on Christmas. Maybe I will be sick on Christmas and not able to go...wouldn't that be such a shame NOT!!! I love my family but they drive me nuts...I need a therapist for an entire month after every holiday. I will go at Christmas and eat and then I ALWAYS find a reason to leave (laundry, sick, etc) 1 hour sitting around a table with a bunch of people who don't know how to be thankful is enough.

My sister is really annoying, but she's in Washington with people she met on the Internet and don't even know for Thanksgiving, and missing her son's 18th b-day. And I have a sister-in-law that's just always running her mouth and acts like she knows everything. I just try to ignore them, if I can. If I see my sister-in-law at a store or something, I usually go the other way before she sees me. Isn't that awful?

Well, my annoying cousins is coming and the last time my friend watched over them, he ended up yelling and screaming at them( luckily me and my other friends were there before he snapped) I plan on telling my parents i will spend my time at church for a while then go to my girlfriends house for dinner. Afterward, i plan on going shopping with my girlfriend for the entire day at friday. if this backfires, i'll just pretend i have the flu. I haven't got a shot since 4.

My grandparents are coming into town and staying at my house. When they stay here I make sure I'm never home! I always go to my boyfriends house because they are so annoying. My grandma feels the need to do my laundry and comment on how cute my underwear is and how she wishes she was young enough to wear similar stuff. Waaaaay too creepy so I try to stay away!

Family or not if they annoy me their not invited here and I won't go there. I won't subject myself to people I don't like and I don't expect anything different from them if they feel the same way.
