It is finally Thanksgiving! No homework, no roommate, no stress, just food. You are very excited to return from college to a nice home-cooked meal that you have been waiting an entire semester for. But, as always, we all dread the moment when your parents start asking questions about your college, love life, or even your salary (yeah, that's happened). But who says it has to be stressful? It's time for us to ask the tough questions as we pass the mashed potatoes. Below are a list of questions we should be asking at the dinner table. Oh, how the tables have turned.
1. Why hasn't *insert family name here* fixed the holes in our economy yet?
2. Why is the sky blue?
3. How are the dogs?
4. How is the divorce, *insert family name here* going?
5. Where is your degree?
6. What is your salary?
7. Can, *insert family name here*provide us with a 6 page essay on the history of Thanksgiving, including MLA Works Cited page with proper annotations? By 11:59 p.m this evening?
8. How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?
9. What came first: the chicken or the egg?
10. What stresses you out, *insert family name here*?
11. Do you have any debt, *insert family name here*?
12. How is work?
13. Can you pass the mashed potatoes before Christ compels me for asking these questions?
