Oh, so then it was a classic Thanksgiving dinner argument? Or is that just something that happens with my family?

I go to friends. This year, I get to meet the friend’s new boyfriend.

(My family’s personal best Thanksgiving moment ever: my grandfather gets rolling on black people. My cousin, who at this point was about fourteen, leans across the table, and whispers to her mom, urgently, “MOM! Grandpa’s a bigot!!”

My aunt says in a normal tone of voice, “Honey, did I forget to tell you that? I’m sorry.”)
