Why Thanksgiving Is the Least Sexy Holiday

According to Glamour magazine:

  • Overcrowded airline travel.
  • Screaming babies on overcrowded airline travel.
  • Screaming babies at your grandma’s house.
  • The hangover you’re nursing after Thanksgiving Eve, the all important night of judging your old high school friends at the local bar.
  • Being stuck in traffic.
  • The huge fight you get in whilst stuck in traffic.
  • Your mother.
  • His mother.
  • Your drunk aunt who can’t stop asking when you two are getting married already.
  • His drunk uncle with a wandering eye and penchant for dirty jokes.
  • Voluntarily sticking your hand into a turkey’s cavity.
  • Accidentally sticking your hand on a hot pan.
  • Or jamming a knife in your finger while slicing sweet potatoes.
  • Political, religious or assorted family drama at the dinner table.
  • Your sister's three loud kids who spill everything, everywhere. Loudly.
  • Turkey coma.
  • Tofurkey coma, if you’re vegetarian.
  • Pumpkin pie moustache (OK, that's not a real thing but it could be).
  • The way you both unbutton your jeans to make room for seconds.
  • Painful indigestion for the rest of the night.
  • Washing 4,000 dirty dishes and grimy pots.
