It's almost time to act like we are thankful for things but really just want to stuff our faces with an unbelievable amount of food! Let's break down some things that are always debated on when it comes to Thanksgiving.
There's a Thanksgiving-themed "would you rather" poll with debates like . . . Would you rather spend Thanksgiving with your mom's family, or your dad's? And are you napping after the dinner, or "staying active"?
Thanksgiving is known for three things: Food . . . gratitude . . . and attitude, the kind that comes with passive-aggressive table debates.
1. Would you rather spend Thanksgiving with your mom's side of the family, or your dad's? More than 10,000 people responded, and two-thirds, 67%, said they would pick their mom's side.
2. Would you rather work on Thanksgiving or Black Friday? 66% said Black Friday. (It's unclear how many of those people work in retail. Also: Those were the only two choices. There wasn't a "neither" option.)
3. Turkey or ham? 72% of people said turkey.
4. Canned cranberry or homemade cranberry? 71% said homemade. (We recently found out that people who love homemade cranberry sauce are more likely to get a cranberry-themed tattoo than fans of canned.)
5. Would you rather COOK the Thanksgiving meal, or CLEAN UP afterwards? 77% would rather cook.
6. Do you dress up for Thanksgiving or wear comfortable clothes? 56% said comfy clothes.
7. Stuffing or mashed potatoes? 59% said mashed potatoes. (This seems like an UPSET . . . or am I underestimating potatoes?)
8. Would you rather host a Thanksgiving dinner or ATTEND one? 72% said they'd prefer NOT to host.
9. Apple or Pumpkin pie? 56% said apple.
10. Napping after Thanksgiving dinner or "staying active"? 70% of people said they're probably going to need a nap.
Here is the full study:
When it comes down to it, lets all just try to have a good time and survive the day. I look forward to my family coming over, but I also look forward to watching a movie with my wife after everyone leaves and the kid is sleeping!
More on Thanksgiving!
