Joke's on you, going to McDonald's is our Thanksgiving tradition!
That's whatcha get when ya don't feel like wasting 12 hours on a turkey and hate pretty much every Thanksgiving staple food out there!

Granny, I hope you're ready for mouthwatering hamburgers.
I thought we were having roast turkey.
No, I said roast burgey. That's what I call hamburgers.

Depends on who owns the McDonald's. All of the ones around here are closed Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter

Or unionize and give workers more power to negotiate. Some people don't care much about these holidays and don't mind working, but no one should be forced to work a holiday.

Richard's I'm Brunswick offers 3 course meals for like, 25 bucks a person! They also will cook turkeys/sides for you if you want to bring stuff home!

As a single guy living alone I just opened a can of peas, a can of cranberry sauce, poured some water on some dehydrated potatoes and dumped some canned gravy on them and honestly it was as good as anything my family used to make.
I didn't feel like cooking a whole turkey though so I made myself a cheeseburger as the main dish instead.
Only think I feel like I'm missing is the stuffing. The boxed stuff is never as good as home made.

Exactly. I always remember my uncles back in the 70s at their mill jobs being absolutely giddy to get triple overtime to work on holidays. They had badass unions though too...

Yeah I made it clear if they wanted me to work on the holidays I would need to get paid big, I got the day off instead which was what I wanted to begin with lmao

Basic stuff like pasta and chicken? Yeah.
Complex meals that would make Gordon Ramsay weep? Not so much.

I tried Mcdonalds in porstmouth and kittery. Both closed. I just wanted some shit food to help deal with the pain.

I had Chinese today. Not much family. A lot of work to do the traditional meal for just myself.

Its a Simpsons reference. Look up Skinner Chalmers Steamed Hams on youtube.

Definitely, but giving up and going to McDonald’s shouldn’t be the answer. Should at least try. Practice makes better.

I find it baffling when people don't know how to cook.

I had a microwave dinner. Family is too far away and I have pets, which makes travelling expensive and complicated. So, I stayed home.
