The Turkey Wasn’t The Only Thing Getting Attention

Okay so there’s a Reddit thread with 84k upvotes where a guy admits he drove four hours to his buddy’s Thanksgiving just to “help with dishes.” His buddy has been married six years. Nobody has ever offered to help with dishes before. The comments figured it out in three replies.
The son’s friends started showing up at 2pm instead of 6pm. Offering to carry groceries in from the car. Asking if there’s anything else they can do. There is nothing else they can do. They just want to stand in the kitchen.
The Group Chat After Thanksgiving Has Been Unhinged

“She made a green bean casserole.” That’s the entire message. Twelve men responded with a single word each and not one of them was about the casserole. The thread is still going. It was three weeks ago.
One guy set his phone wallpaper to the blurry background of a group photo from the dinner table. His girlfriend found it. She zoomed in. The Thanksgiving invite situation has since been renegotiated. Completely.
