My family tried this for Thanksgiving. We said fuck it and had our own dinner with the Lions of the family.
If they aren't shopping for a Lamborghini with a Powerball ticket that has a 0.01% chance if winning...
Then getting tested for a virus with a 99.99% survival rate seems just as absurd.
I pulled put the smoker and we had Thanksgiving. And at the end of the day they ended up at my house anyway.
You can't force your family to be brave.. you just have to do it for them. People are fucking stupid and want to be told what to do.
Courage is more contagious than the kung flu.
I have charlatans in my family as well.
My cousin is a Democrat politician... (yeah we aren't close)
I dropped out of law school to do circus arts in Las Vegas when I was younger (I'm 40) I still see my family... but they look down on me for not following them into law.
I did what I wanted to and I'm happy. I still love them.. but fuck em.
Got to see 52 countries and 180 cities in the USA... when I'm about to die.. ill be thinking about that... not their opinions. Goodluck and Merry Christmas.
