The sight of my meat certainly makes women less aggressive. :(

What makes American Thanksgiving dinners so interesting in the intertribal warfare.

Subby has heard wrong. My family just gets a little drunk, pigs out and has fun. Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday for this reason. None of the petty squabbles, worries or sobriety of so many other holidays, just a metric shiat-ton of food, booze and good spirit.

maybe it's that trypto-whatsit that just makes everyone too tired to be angry

We have turkey, ham, and roast beef at our thanksgiving dinner. The caterers sometimes bring a fish dish too, but it really depends on how many people we are expecting. No one gets so aggressive, though! So there might be something to that.

No aggression in my family's Thanksgiving ,but it is a little shady how dad, bro and I all go for being the first at the turkey skin.


MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM, crispy fat.....

But yams have the opposite effect.

Meanwhile the mashed potatoes are sitting there just begging for a food fight.

Meh. My crazy-ass family doesn't need a holiday to get aggressive. Your standard Friday after-work six-pack accomplishes that rather nicely.

Tasty murder. And it's better with animal cruetly too : boiled alive lobsters, fois gras, veal and oysters ! I always make it a point to dress for the occasion, wearing crocodile boots, leather pants and shirt, and underpants made from the finest hand-clubbed baby seals.

Every time I have rare steak, I secretly want to grab it with both hands, tear it in half, take a massive bite out of one hand and shake my head like a dog ripping the flesh out of something. hasiudf as faobg BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!!!!!

i get food aggression when i eat. i dont like to be talked to or petted when im eating.

As a vegetarian, I really enjoy cooking the ever-living fark out of animals for others' consumptions.

Anybody bored on Wednesday can stop by my place, I'll have at least a roast (beef), a few chicken breasts, and possibly a turkey cooking at my place for the roomies.

We'll see how it goes.

If suddenly my (all male) household goes from peaceful to dead, I'll let you guys know.

I thought aggression went down AFTER the consumption of turkey......you know, with the tryptophan and all.....or maybe it's just stuffing our faces, then sitting on the couch to watch Dallas and Detroit in a carbohydrate-induced stupor while the womenfolk clean up.

This year one section of my in laws is hosting thanksgiving at their house. We'll call them Weith and Al. They invited the sweet PTELG and MRS. P, over. However the other section, we'll call them Wev and Clara, always goes to her parents for Thanksgiving; always. This year it turns out Wev and Clara are staying in town, Weith and Al don't know this yet. Wev and Clara found out on Sunday that they weren't invited. I'm looking forward to a year of icy glares.

Who eats meat on Thanksgiving?
 
2010-11-09 07:55:53 AM
Turkey = food coma.
Tofurkey = RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGE!

/especially if mom did so many cosmetic things to the "bird" you couldn't tell until you'd already loaded your plate, and then contaminated everything else by touching it with that foul abomination.

CATERERS? That's not Thanksgiving. Your family is lousy.

Oh. It supposedly only works on men.

That explains my family, anyway.

Two daughters, sister, two sisters-in-law, mother, mother-in-law, three nieces.

One husband, one father, one father-in-law.

In my family the turkey isn't a problem but you need to be quick to get any pie.

/but one year we had prime rib....I damned near lost an arm

I don't know, I feel pretty aggressive up until the first or second bite.

Seeing meat and not being able to eat it might make me fly into a psychotic rage.

Bucky Katt: meat is murder

If we aren't supposed to eat the animals, why are they made of meat?
 
2010-11-09 02:39:55 PM
So your telling me animals are instinctively less aggressive when they have more high calorie and high fat food than they can eat? Unbelievable.
