nope, its clear as day, you're lizzie

How come this thread is for this year (2013) but has 2012 in the title? Did you miss a whole year and not realize it was 2013?

On the other hand, I do wish you well though this holiday and the others to come. They can be good or bad, depending on your situation and being depressed isn't a good thing.

Three years ago I found out my wife was screwing a couple other guys one of whom was a friend of mine. I went to my former friends house and started a row. This chain of events set off another chain of events in which I lost my wife, dog, home, motorcycle, job and even my freedom for a few weeks.
Now that a couple years have passed I have a job making half the money I used to make and I am renting a room in the basement of a townhouse. Last year at this time I found out that I had colon cancer which required a very unpleasant operation that caused me to use the family medical leave act to get time off from work. Oh and I forgot to mention I had no medical insurance at the time so I had to cash in my 401k.
My daughter had to go to community college instead of CNU where she had been accepted and was looking forward to attending. She blames me for this and says I overreacted to the fact that her mother was spreading her legs for multiple men and I should have gone to counseling with her instead of the angry violent stuff that I did.

Happy holidays everyone!

i am depressed this year.. mom is going to be away and eesh is coming over but has hemmoridal flareups so no anal

I really enjoy the family thing. One sibling gets drunk the other openly bums money off my parents. A real season of joy. I would consider it a blessing if I can stay home by myself, watch football and sleep in.

I lied to my sister and told her I have to travel for work next week and can not be at the family gathering this year. Sounds like my family is similar to yours (dysfunctional). I will be spending the long weekend at a Holiday inn about 20 miles from here. I plan to stock my room with beer and snacks and will have plenty of cash for delivery food. Once there I will watch football, stream some movies and workout in the hotel gym and relax in the whirlpool tub. Total peace and contentment!

I just claim sickness or that I cannot get off from work on Friday so I cannot travel. I would rather slam my nuts in a door than spend a day with my family. Being the only one with a good job and good income I get hit with all the hard luck stories and requests for help, i.e. money. It came to the point where I almost had to apply for a court order to get one of them to stop contacting me.

and I will add the requests for money are usually followed by "Well you have enough already". I do and I didnt get it by spending it on drugs and alcohol.

You guys sure have a lot of loser family. I can't imagine asking relatives for money. I have a different sort of issue. Everyone in the family has a PhD, but they have no sense of humor. It's like being at an Asperger's convention at Thanksgiving. Oh yeah...they can't cook either and they eat off of paper plates. I dread it.

Its not like I had a choice. You take the cards you are dealt or in this case the family you are born into. I often wonder how siblings raised in the same family can be so different. I wouldnt ask my parents for a dime but one of my siblings not only cons them into giving but on occasion has stolen their property and sold it on CL. I gave up long ago trying to help,

It did become an issue when I had to obtain a security clearance and I had to disclose criminal arrests of family members. The background guy seemed puzzled I could not provide more info on my siblings or their whereabouts. I had to explain how I stay as far away as possible.

We also keep away from relatives if possible. We have one relative mooching off us, and we are trying to get them to move out of our rental house right now. Looks like eviction will be needed. Another one keeps calling for money. We are not rich but we have more than others right now. I may lose my job in the spring due to downsizing and want to keep what I have, so it will be a stingy Christmas too. I did not sign up to support all of these people.

My family has one redneck crazy uncle. Every few years we have to go to his house for thanksgiving. He lives in Manassas of course. Last time we went there he got really drunk and got in a fight with his neighbor so we all watched him get cuffed by the cops. The cops would not arrest him because he is a volunteer firefighter, they took him to the firehouse to sleep it off. I am depressed because this year we have to go there again. Fuck my life.

We just turned out an invite to my brother's for Thankstaking Day Dinner. He coaches his 17 and 16 year old kids on how to beg their relatives for money, like drop not-very-subtle hints that so-and-so uncle gave me 500 bucks and why didn't they give me 500 bucks or why did they only give me 250 bucks and on and on... And then he complains to other relatives that we don't come over.

What was worse is I heard he and his wife tried to coax 10K out of my elderly mom on several occassions. fuck em.

How about a some a this?

I'm from a family of seven kids. All are homosexual and lesbian. I'm the youngest and the only straight one in the bunch. Thanksgiving is a crazy time and the only time we all get together. Two of my brothers are married and have adopted kids and one is living with a man twenty years older than him. My three sisters are in relationships with let's say the more dominant type. My parents are devote Catholics and can't understand what happened. My dad just shakes his head and says "I just can't understand it" My mom thinks it was medicine she was taking during the pregnancies with the first six. Any way Thanksgiving is the day that I'm thankful for being straight.

You might wonder how this ‘roast without equal’ could possibly rival the turducken. What, did it include four birds? Five? Nope. Try 17.

According to the original recipe, the outermost bird was a bustard – a large, terrestrial bird that once roamed the European countryside in abundant number and could weigh up to 40 pounds. The bustard was stuffed with (in descending order) a turkey, chicken, duck, guinea fowl, teal, woodcock, partridge, plover, lapwing, quail, thrush, lark, ortolan bunting and, finally, a warbler, which is roughly the size and weight of a golf ball. It should come as no surprise that there was little room for stuffing, veggie garnishes or other, non-bird ingredients

Cracker Barrel is also doing Thanksgiving takeout dinners. Maggiano's is still taking reservations for Thanksgiving. Their holiday dinners are awesome.

Last year on Thanksgiving morning my dog got hit by a car and died in my arms all because I left his collar a little too loose. I loved this dog for 13 years. This thanksgiving I am going to volunteer at the ASPCA shelter and am donating 100 dollars worth of dog food. This is a sad holiday for me this year.

Happy as hell!!! Nobody to cook for except me, relaxing watching the football games, drinking beer and vodka, grabbing a smoke when I want to..The fucking day all to myself!!!
I love it!!!
No bitching girlfriend, no fucked up or drunk family, nobody taking a shit so bad that it clogs my toilet, no cleaning up, no worries about travel, No bitching about listening to music or the football game is too loud.

Just me, My cat, the tv, cold beer/mixed drinks and a pack of marlboro. I finally get down time..And you fuckers are Depressed? Enjoy it.

and remember no posting on craigslist for hot gay sex while everyone is away

I will never understand this begging money off relatives. I wouldn't ask mine for a dime and I have had some tough times in my life when I started off after graduation. Yet I am frequently asked by siblings for money. Just no shame on their part. I have no desire to see them ever, much less for a holiday. I just hate moochers.

A year of mourning is enough. Get another dog and start living.

Well Im not gay and I am married so that means I never have sex. But maybe I will do a little wacky wacky whilst looking at porn hub.

it;s already dark outside

Guess who will be alone, have a bottle of wine,some very old weed, a fleshlight and internet access? Me!!!!

I told my wife that I was sick and can't make it to the in-laws for Thanksgiving, wife was pissed so I faked throwing up in the shower, She's still pissed, but I don't care.

No sitting in fucking traffic,eating shitty food,getting evil looks when I crack another beer or go out for a smoke, or changing the tv channel from watching "it's a wonderful life" to Football.
No bitching that I'm watching the game instead of being social.


I have no idea why people get depressed, Being alone is a fucking VACATION!!!!!

That is one depressing story.

I was going to talk about how I had to put my 17 year old dog to sleep but that does not compare with the shit on this thread.

I got kicked out of my home and someone stole my laptop. I even tried to kill myself but failed. Now my car inspection goes dead and I need brakes.

stop it

Your laptop was not stolen. You have plenty of money to pay for your frivolous lawsuit against eesh, hence you will find no sympathy if you can't pay for brakes.

If you need a place to stay, maybe Karen Leiser will take you in as her FWB, or you can sleep in the basement with Phillip Leiser.

Keep in mind that anyone you stay with will insist that you use a mattress pad and sheets. Nobody wants your fat greasy body rubbing all over and contaminating their mattress.
Attachments:

The aroma of pumpkin pie cooking in the oven, crisp leaves falling on the ground, black coffee topped with cinnamon and freshly made whipped cream, persimmons and pomegranates for sale...oh I just adore this time of year! We both love coffee and our favorite season is fall, so it was surely a match made in heaven.

I have a good job, plenty of money, a nice house, two nice cars and one junky one, good health insurance, am reasonably healthy, 12 weeks of vacation time coming, a wife that loves me and some fish.
I am completely miserable and life pisses me off everyday.

I hate getting up in the morning, taking a shower, driving to work, working, eating lunch, going home, eating dinner and going to sleep. My days off I hate as well. The only thing I like doing is taking care of my fish.

Happy holidays.

Nothing to complain about here generally. I'll spend Turkey Day sitting around my born-again Mother-in-law's house, but I'll have laptops and other distractions to keep me from saying hostile and alienating things to her. And the food is to die for.

I have a son who is an "adult child". He is obese, has no job, no degree, and no experience. We rented an apartment for him in hopes he would mature, but he just sleeps on the bare mattress with no sheets or mattress pad. He spends his days surfing the Internet and contemplating suicide. He has been in and out of treatment for years. In the course of his online activity he developed a feud with another person and then felt compelled to file a frivolous lawsuit which is draining our savings. We will have nothing to leave behind for either him or our other two children. Recently he assaulted me with a kitchen knife. I have decided that next time I will shoot and kill him in self-defense.

Since there's a protective order against William he won't be able to go home this Thanksgiving..

YES!! We just have to tie it in with the bunnyman and Eva Roy.

I am a 44 year old custodian at a high school. I will be alone on Thanksgiving day dog sitting my family members dogs so the rest of the family can go on fabulous holiday trips. I live in my parents basement.
I am going to drink keystone light and watch football all day. Two of the dogs have special dietary needs and I have to cook them custom made meals all weekend long. Fuck my life.

God Damit that sounds so wonderful!!!

This is a very depressing thread.

I have to drive from Mclean to Richmond on Thanksgiving to eat dinner and then drive back. It is going to suck so bad, fuck my life!

I do that every year and it's not bad at all. If you want open roads just leave before 7 or 8 am.

Got to work this week. Will be alone in a Super8 motel in Ithaca NY eating carryout turkey dinner from Dennys. That IS depressing!

My company does. Super eight, motel six or Days inn.

When I have depression or anxiety I take CBD oil. I like how it works on my body. If you suffer from depression, then go to proper link and be sure to buy citrus CBD oil. This will not only relieve nervousness, but also give a good sleep.

4 days off is a little too much. Will be glad to go back to work tomorrow.
