Although part of me is morbidly curious to know what chuds will blurt out at the dinner table about China and Mexico.

    Is today Thanksgiving? I've always thought it sounds like a really nice idea on paper, but I do get that the real world is full of uncles. Hope you have the nicest time possible and that the food is tasty and that you have something to be happy about!

      I eventually stopped going to holidays where the uncles congregate after hearing the same tired jokes about not eating meat for over a decade.

        Sorry about that. I have uncles of the sort and a lifetime of experience getting through family gatherings with them. You should go into the standard uncle encounter like you are going to speak to a young child. His opinions on immigration will be as loudly expressed and as relevant as a child raving about Fortnite and if you manage to get any point across to him you should feel the same amount of pride. Just don't miss out on meeting any lovely part of the family because of unclephobia. I have aunts and cousins who make it worth listening to hours of uncle talk if I have to to meet them. I hope everyone else is so lucky.
