Well guys, get your eating pants on; it's about that time...
Thanksgiving! Which, of course, is one of the greatest holidays ever... but could also be one of the most annoying. This is a time to gather with all of your loved ones that you haven't seen in months, maybe even years... so naturally, they're going to try to catch up on every little detail about your life.
1. "So are you dating anyone yet?"
Dear lord. The amount of times I get this question... NO. I don't have a boyfriend and probably won't for a very long time with how our generation is. JEEEEEZ!
OR, maybe there is someone kind of in the picture, but you don't know how to explain it to grown adults that don't understand what "talking" even is... and at that point you're just like, "okay let's move on, please."
2. "So what's your plan for after graduation?"
I'm gonna be honest here, I barely even know my plan for next week. I'm just here trying to get through each day at a time, so thinking about life after graduation stresses me out just a bit each time.
3. "How's ________ doing?"
When someone at the table asks how an old friend is that you don't associate with anymore.... and you'd really rather not go into detail as to why..... yeah, painfully awkward.
4. "Did you gain/lose weight?"
I would hope this question doesn't come up too often for people, but I'm sure it has before. Maybe I did, maybe I didn't... DON'T ASK ME IN FRONT OF EVERYONE THOUGH. How am I supposed to even answer that?
5. "So tell me, who did you vote for?"
The one dreaded topic I hate discussing... politics. Let's just refrain from talking about it altogether. (DISCLAIMER: Just because I used a Donald Trump meme does not mean I voted for him... because I didn't).
6. "So what's your major again? What do you plan on doing with that?"
Yeah... still trying to figure that out.... moving on.
7. "So are you a huge party animal up there?"
I mean, I like to have a good time, but we don't need to go into detail about that right now.
