Hi, I'm Charlotte Dobre. I'm an actor, reactor, singer and sometimes (not really) comedian. On this channel I do reactions, commentary and occasionally I make a joke or two. I love poking fun at social media, weddings, entitled people, tiktok and OF COURSE petty people. I upload daily, usually 7 days a week, unless life gets crazy or I get lazy.

bruh the girl in the pledge video was really nice enough to go along and be respectful to what she thought was a family thing. She even did the spin! She's a keeper.
Definite Keeper.
I thought that was adorable. 😂😂😂
Reddit may have intoxicate me but I was thinking "THAT'S A GOOD HAZING", comparing to all families where new members are treated like the new ugly girl in teenage movies who meet with the mean girls and must do everything to be accepted by them. Clearly a cute ice breaker ^^
That was so adorable, and I hope they stay together cause that's a fun family to be around 😂
Seriously though! Totally a keeper! Love the surprise on her face as she almost spits her drink out completely at a loss for what the heck is happening, but she still goes with it all anyway!! Including the spin at the end! 🤣 Freaking priceless!! And I gotta say I really like, as some of the other comments I read said, the fact this wasn't one of those mean hearted or mean spirited type of situations where the family thinks "no one is good enough for our precious baby." But instead it was done in a totally light hearted fun silly way. I'd love to see or hear the end to that all lol. Bet she was just as great about it all and everyone got a good laugh about it all in the end. Hope they're happy and living their best lives together still! Seems like a fun family to be a part of. Really love to see this type of stuff instead of the horrid, mean and straight up almost evil BS you see so often when it comes to "meeting the family". LOVE IT!! And love and adore this channel!! Charlotte is probably my all time favorite to watch!
Your parents should speak Italian in front of him but make it sound like their shouting at each other but their instead just saying "I love you" "You're beautiful." You always make my day with these vids. I love you, Charlotte ❤️
YES! 100%!
I married into a Colombian family….let’s just say, as a soft spoken Californian whose own family never raised their voices, like, ever, sitting around the dinner table with my in-laws is always a fun game of “are they Mad, Sad, or Excited?” You just never know🫠😂💕
Yes, this.
‘pass me the potatoes dear’ angry face, angry gesture 😡
lol, as a Russian I realized we can just discuss anything in our language and people will think we are fiercely arguing lol. Every time my ex overheard me talking to mom on the phone he would afterwards be like "is everything okay?.." :D won't be too surprised if Italian is the same, it's such an emotional language!
This is why all holiday meals should be potluck style, everyone likes at least one dish because they brought it themselves and no one overworks getting it all put together.
With my family . Any holiday dinners and celebrations. The host makes the main dish and everyone else brings sides and desert
the gran story cracked me up.
during lockdown I was my granny full time carer and I lived with her during this time. naturally I was having video chats with friends with some alcohol a few times a week.
I was also doing online college each day in another room while my gran was in the sitting room. she had dementia but fairly mobile and
active.
one day I had just finished up college for the day and went in to give my granny her dinner, she was almost not responsive and I panicked thinking the worst - stroke, heart attack maybe she ingested something she shouldn't have... that's a whole other story. i rang my mam who was at least 40 minutes away, then one of grans carers arrived for the evening visit and we assessed grannys state. she couldn't stand, slurred speech and incredibly giggly at this point. so we suspected a possible poisoning. bare in mind I had been checking on her almost every half hour the whole day, making her coffee, toilet trips etc. i hadn't noticed her rambling around.
well.... it turns out she had ingested something... half a bottle of jack daniels whiskey - raw. i had mistakenly left my bottle on the floor beside the couch the night before and she had been swigging out of it half the day hiding it each time i came in. She was pissed drunk and living her best life.
i called my mam back and told her the story and we put gran to bed to sleep of her mischief.
its one of my favourite lockdown stories especially since my gran has since passed (unrelated to covid thankfully) i will always treasure that time i had with her. always a happy and mischievous lady.
hope you enjoyed my memory, thanks for reading so till the end and happy Christmas!
Haha my Nene is 4”11 and gets tipsy off of one and half beers 😂😂 jt was so cute one night me and my husband were at her house visiting her and my mom and me and my husband had just found out I was 2 months pregnant with our son and my grandma was going a little stir crazy wanted to go out to the bar for music and drinks (my grandma is a huge social butterfly) and she just looks at my husband (him being the only one with a car) and says “you’re taking me out for drinks get ready” and my husbands like “okay Nene” 😂 and he takes her out to the local bar and I decide to hang back and watch tv because I was preggers anyway so no drinks for me plus I didn’t feel like going out and lmao her and my husband come back home about two hours later totally sloshed and stumbling through the door giggling it was adorable. I was like “Babe! How much did she have to drink?!” And he’s like “I swear I only bought her two beers!!” It was hilarious ❤😂 one of the best memories I had of my grandma before her dementia got really bad 😢 I miss her so much
For Mike meeting the fam: Pretend that no one speaks at the dinner table. Set a timer like with the sound of a turkey, and as soon as it goes off, everyone start talking at once.
😂😂👍
😂 Charlotte's turkey voice impression hahahaha
Hahahaha the grandmother kills me , just sitting there being brought glass after glass of wine hahahaha what a legend - she didn't stop any of you so good for her hahaha
Her last wish was to live it up one more time😂😅
My great uncle went out that way. Everyone bringing him drinks thinking they were the only one.
"My 5 foot nothing gran" got me screaming 🤣
For Mike’s prank, I would have your Dad hand you and Mike your “schedules” as soon as you arrive, where everything is scheduled for each person, including potty breaks. So like yours could have 25 minutes to set the table, 5 minutes for a glass of wine and 1 cracker with cheese, then 15 minutes conversation with “auntie” then 30 minutes playing a board game, followed by a 10 minute walk, etc. with one for every person. You could make it seem like this was something you always did on holidays 😂😂
69 LIKES NOBODY LIKE
😂 also à good one lol
We had our family Christmas get together yesterday. It was fabulous! We almost lost 2 of our youngest members in a massive car accident this yr, so it was such a blessing for all of us to not only get together, but to still be a complete family. We ate & opened presents. Played dirty Santa, ping pong, & Christmas themed charades. Other than the call we got from our neighbors that our dog got out of the fence (we were obviously elsewhere), it was a wonderful, wonderful day. (We made the quick trip home & put the dogs in the house btw.) I wish you all a family get together as good as ours. Whether your family is by blood or chosen, cherish them all the same! Merry Christmas, everyone!
You too!
What is dirty santa ping pong?
@@serenitybeddes2143 Two different things. We played Dirty Santa & the kids played ping pong. I added a comma. Sorry for the confusion.
@@michellew97 oooooh
I'm so glad that your family members are ok and everyone got to all be together! I'm glad you had a fabulous time together and I wish you and your family an amazing, happy, healthy, blessed year!🎉🎄🙏🏻
Both my grandmother's were very nice and respectful to people, not judgy. The one time my grandma on dad's side judged my "cousin" for his pants being too low, she pantsed him to teach him a lesson, and it turned out to be my cousin's friend 😂 when he told his mom "Jake's grandma pantsed me" she said "maybe you should wear a belt then" grandma was so embarrassed and kept things to herself ever since.
That’s hilarious
Grandma sounds savage! 🤣
Now that is who I want to be when I grow up!
@2:30 she's a keeper lmao! I love how it looked like it was almost a spit take, but turned into oh fuck you're supposed to stand during this and the bewilderment in her eyes 😂😂😂😂 perfection. Thank you for always brightening my crappy life with your not-crappy videos! 💚😂
I was super depressed and in a funk until I just recently found your channel. I haven't smiled and genuinely laughed in so long. I get up every morning have a cup of coffee and watch your videos now and it motivates me to continue on with my day and get things done. I just wanted to say thanks for being you and so damn funny!
I hope 2023 is a better year for you 🖤
Welcome to The World of Charlotte where smiles and laughter abound! If nothing else, a chuckle to start your day =)
Same. ❤
Hoping you are feeling better today!
This channel has a way of making us all feel just a little better! Welcome to the Potato Family!
🎉🥂🎉🥂
@@SonjaElizabethTeal Thank you 🥂🥂🙂❤
I’ve had the occasional good large Christmas gathering but I’ve also experienced some really horrible and toxic ones. This year I’ve very glad to be staying at home with my husband and our kids. Just the four of us chillin out with each other and our new toys and eating yummy food that no one has to cook (antipasto platters, fresh fruit, cold ham and salads). No pressure, no expectations, just a simple day with simple pleasures.
Don’t be afraid to step away from toxic traditions and create your own better ones. Happy holidays everyone ❤
I'm going to miss these supernaturally frequent and reliable video updates, once Charlotte decides shes had enough of this grind. She's keeping us all afloat during the SAD season. What a treasure.
@@thomasjoseph5876 You should be paid! Full stop. Very interesting insight. Triplets wow, well done! I wish you, your friend, and Charlotte all the success in the world. I know you're working hard for it. Its nice that there are actual lucrative options these days for independent entertainers and artists.
@@thomasjoseph5876 You are absolutely right in not wanting to work for free! Too bad your plate is too full to create your own lucrative channel. I would imagine having triplet young girls would provide an endless supply of funny and heart-warming content!
One of my favorite channels, La Guardia Cross, is a very funny man and his family. He mostly focuses on his adorable two daughters and their antics, but he also talks about the challenges his wife lives with due to her mental illness.
It takes talent and a lot of time to have a successful channel. I wish I had the talent (and looks) to do this because I have an interesting lifestyle (to some folks) that's out of the ordinary, but I'm too introverted to share anything on video except my animals out here at the Lazy👁Ranch.
She has an editor to help now and one can film for several days, edit it, upload and then schedule release times to be once a day so that you have days off. Usually this gives you a better work life balance to so you don't burn out. But getting to 1.2 million subscribers to make the money afford the help so she can make time for herself was no doubt a very hard grind. Good for her. I wish her all the success, she's earned it and more.
As an "Aunt Who Is Not Actually," I am invited to other people's holiday dinners because my bio family lives very far away and is extremely toxic. And I try not to talk about myself unless asked.
My kids adore their (not really) aunts and uncles. We’re stationed minimum 8 hours drive from most of our family and can’t travel to any of them during the holidays. So the people I work with here in animal rescue have become our family. We wouldn’t trade them for anything.
I felt really bad for her. Seemed mean of Charlotte to put that out. Never thought of Charlotte as mean before.
I have had aunties who were not aunties, and they have been delightful, every one.
@@jainthorne4136from other posts on the topic, it seems like it was warranted.
Alright Charlotte. What you have to do is when your family sits down at the dinner table and everyone stands up and forms a line at the kitchen sink to pat the sponge and say “thank you for staying fluffy. May the Spuds be with you” and go sit back down at the table if all the food is there otherwise continue with your plate to the line up of Christmas dinner and get each what you want in complete silence
,😂
The year my sister became engaged, her fiance spent Christmas with us for the first time. We had received paper Christmas napkins from an aunt- each one had a different Christmas Carol. There were 6 different ones-- all really familiar in 1965-- with the exception of "Oh, Tannenbaum!". We made a game. We said-- everyone will turn their napkins over when it's your turn, and then you sing the carol!! We all had "Silent Night" "O Little Town" "O come all ye Faithful"-- ones we all knew. Johnny got "Oh, Tannenbaum!"-- which some of us had never heard before. Him, included. He struggled valiantly until we all cracked up!! Such a good sport-- they've been married 57 years!!
Many years ago, my husband and I hosted Thanksgiving. My cousin, her husband, my grandmother, her husband, my uncle and aunt, my step-daughter, and her husband, Mark, were all in attendance. Important: we're all white as the driven snow. Also important: my grandmother and her husband were blind. Well into dinner, my grandmother started on a rant about Black people. We all sat there in utter silence, eyes bugged out, and slow chewing. I chimed in, "Grandma! Mark is Black!" My uncle spit his beer all over the table. My aunt, cousin, and I were quiet laughing until we hurt. My grandmother sat there, petrified, silent. After a minute or so, we all burst into audible laughter. Grandma cried. Best Thanksgiving ever.
Also, re: the kid that almost called his mom a cow... My mother and I were at the grocery store completing check-out. She yelled, "Get the bag, bag." I responded, "Get the milk, cow." And we died. Literally on the floor laughing our hineys off. Cashiers joined the merriment. A good time was had by all.
Also, re: the kid at the table... My dad is Irish. When I was growing up, we celebrated St. Patrick's Day with an "Irish turkey" (corned beef brisket). My dad is notoriously quiet and old school: you do NOT speak unnecessarily at the table during meals. Uncharacteristically, my dad blurts out, "B'gosh, begorrah..." and I responded, "Be quiet." The rest of the night was spent cleaning milk off the walls.
Funniest comment I’ve seen so far 😂🤣
B'gosh be silent!! Lol
Can I come next thanksgiving? Your family sounds like a hoot
Your family sounds wonderful!
This video reminds me of a country song from @ 30 years ago by Robert Earl Keen that perfectly describes a typical holiday family dinner in the South (especially Texas). It's been covered by other bands, but this is the original.
The first time I heard this song, I was driving and had to pull over because I was laughing too hard to see. Being part of a typical redneck family with lots of half-siblings and in-laws from different nationalities, religions, and opinions, I relate to this song way too much! 😂
I still love my family, just some members more than others...
"Merry Christmas From The Family"!
ruclips.net/video/P37xPiRz1sg/видео.html
@@LazyIRanch Still one of my all time Christmas favorites. Even more special if you're from Texas. Merry Christmas!.🤘
Sorry this is long:
TLDR: my rich side of the family left the poor side of my family out on thanksgiving.
The first family thanksgiving I brought my husband to when we were first dating was hosted by my uncle and aunt. Thing is they’re pretty loaded and well off. So I thought it would be a great first thanksgiving to go to for him and to meet some of my extended family as he hasn’t met them. Myself, my dad, brother and my step mom aren’t well off by any means. My uncle and aunt set up two main thanksgiving tables. One in the kitchen and one in the dining room (and another table for the kids in the dining room). My aunts side of the family which is arguably extremely well off was assigned at that table. The rest of us poor people sat with the kids basically in the dining room. We thought it was pretty rude but just shrugged it off. After dinner the rich folk decided they wanted to play poker. They didn’t invite any of us to play because they didn’t think we could buy in at what they were playing at to start out. Which was like $25-$30. Which yeah we could afford. We probably wouldn’t have anyways but it felt really shitty to be singled out as the poor people that couldn’t play with the rich people. The divide in the family was very apparent to my husband and saw how they basically ignored us the whole time because they were having their thanksgiving in the other room. My uncle hardly ever came to talk to us. And if any of us went in there to visit with them it was obvious my aunts family didn’t want us there…. It was the worst thanksgiving ever. We felt like we were intruding on the thanksgiving they wanted even though they invited us. So we all left way early. Not a single one of them tried to ask us to stay longer. They were just like “ok bye! It was great to see you!” Like ok sure lol. On the way home I was pretty embarrassed and a little upset which really angered my husband. He grew up in a pretty wealthy family but he was raised right to know that you don’t treat people like that. He said “no offense to your family but that was really rude of them. I know you guys are trying not to let it get to you but I can tell it bothered you guys. I don’t want to have another thanksgiving there. It’s hard to watch that and not be able to say anything.” I couldn’t help crying because I was mostly just embarrassed that was his first impression of my extended family. We had never been treated that way by them before. My own family made me feel like a loser. Needless to say we have never been back to my aunt and uncles house for any holidays since lol. Screw them anyways. I have more fun with my “poor” side of the family anyways lol. At least they aren’t stuck up assholes.
Wtf 😂 that is really ridiculous, if they didn't want you there they just should not have invited you.
@@meisjeViv exactly!! Lol. It was so ridiculous.
Sometimes we need proof of where we're truly meant to be. With genuine loved ones....Merry Christmas 😊
read through this whole comment, just cringing non-stop at how blatantly your family disrespected the rest of you. that’s heartbreaking, but it sounds like your partner is an absolute star. what a sweet way to end such a horrific day. i hope you all have so many fond memories of better holidays, and here’s to many, many more in the future! 💜❄️💜
why you all keep going there tho??
once you experience that you shouldnt
go there anymore. anyways thank god you dont go there anymore😊
2:43 wife it up, she went along with it.
I remember one Thanksgiving at my extended family’s house. Mostly white recycling (they’re not quite trash, but they’re close). I was overwhelmed, it was so loud, half the party was drinking, the rest were yelling. One of my family members who married into the family asked me to help with dishes. We spent the rest of the night talking, and it was nice and quiet. She probably doesn’t know it, but it helped me a lot. It’s hard being a quiet person in a loud family, and it’s especially hard when you’re sensitive to lots of noise, so having a quiet moment meant the world to me.
White recycling 😂😂😂😂
Hi Charlotte! If Mike is meeting your parents and you're having a meal...you should tell him the new person makes a toast. Probably a boring suggestion but the struggle to make a toast would be hilarious 😄
Ohhh spin on that, tell him that it's traditional to make a ROAST, and then have her parents be super offended and her going "babe, what the hell?" before everyone clues him in 😂
@@0Onyx13 You are the legend of spin 😄❤️
I hate it when others take pleasure in my discomfort. It immediately makes me not ever want to come back. Not everybody likes to be teased/bullied like that. Some take it as a joke, some do not. You better know your person really really well!
Be sure everyone stares at him with intently. Lol!
@@SwirlingSoul Yeah I think that she knows Mike will be fine with it, or she wouldn't have asked. Like, if someone pranked ME like that, I'd be a sobbing mess and would be too embarrassed to ever look anyone in the eyes ever again, but not everyone is so emotionally broken like me (thankfully, otherwise the world would have stopped functioning long ago, when people just stopped getting out of their rooms for days on end lol)
OMG drunk gran was way better than I was expecting!!!! My story like that is no where near as positive. Stepfather had a stroke during thanksgiving dinner last year. I honestly could not understand how she was talking so calmly about it because my mind instantly went to "She had a stroke! OMG" Thank G-d she was just drunk!
I was thinking the same thing!
Same with my late grandma, I had a hard time watching that one.
Well, at least if she _had_ had a stroke, what with alcohol being a bloodthinner, all that wine would've at least been helpful, I guess. I'm really glad that was not the case, though. My late grandfather had a stroke and lost control of the right side of his body. It's one of the worst things that can happen to a person, IMHO.
As a french person, I never did thanksgiving as it is not something we do here at all. However, I went to study 6 months in New York and had nothing to do for that period since there were no classes. I got invited by another random student to come to her grandparents' place for Thanksgiving so that I could experience it 😂 They had a huge house, chandelier, candelabras and everything, food spread out on a table the length of the freaking wall. No one knew who the f I was and no one gave a sh*t, I just stuffed my face with food and chatted with people that really matched the description in the video lmao The cramberry sauce was to die for.
My mom isn't even making dinner this year. It's snacks and cake for us, but I'm not mad about it. I'm honestly just happy to be together with my family.
I'm also the unrelated "aunt" to my bff's daughters. I don't go on big holidays, yet, but her girls adore me and I'm always welcome there, so hopefully I'm not seen negatively. I'm always there for birthdays and right around the holidays. Growing up I helped decorate the tree and the house at her parents for Christmas. We were at each other's houses the day before and usually hours after. Sometimes your family aren't the people who birthed you.
Nah, not every “auntie” falls into that category. In my experience, you only get the title from time or love. Sounds like you are the latter.
Also, adopted so totally agree with family being in the heart not the blood.
@@TheBaumcm That's nice of you to say. My health is poor (disabled and not working) and taking care of my health and that of my dad who has advanced Parkinsons is really draining, so I don't get to see my nieces as much as I'd like, but when I do they are thrilled to see me. I always play with them and I don't talk down to them, regardless of age. They'll let me know if they don't understand. When they lived farther away, and I was healthier, I'd go for sleepovers for a few days at a time when her oldest was little and her youngest wasn't born yet, and my niece absolutely LOVED it. It was lots of fun. She's a teen now, but still gets excited if a sleepover is mentioned. There isn't exactly a toy room or guest room in their current house, but they live so close that it hardly matters.
You don't get to choose who births you or your bio relatives, but I wish more people understood/knew/accepted that the people who love and support you can also be your family. I think that adoption can be a wonderful thing for the same reason, regardless of why you were put up for adoption. ❤ I hope you have a lovely holiday season with your loved ones.
You should totally fake a tradition by painting a potato gold and asking ur family to pray in Italian to the mystical potato, Mike will genuinely not know what to do and pls record it 😂😂😂😂 love you!! ❤️❤️💯💯
Uncle Teddy must've smoked some strong Grinch to make everyone thinking he's dying 🤣🤣🤣
It's very interesting to see how other families interact at Christmas. Mine is definitely very different than everything I've seen here. My grandma's a sweetheart, my cousins are older than me and really cool, my aunt is- fine. I never really talk to her outside the holidays. The thing that I hate about family dinners are my parents, especially my mom. We always end up arguing about something and then everything gets awkward. But then again, I haven't seen my cousins in two years because of covid so I'm looking forward to seeing them.
Have everyone make their dish for dinner. Just before Mike can start eating what he served himself, everyone picks up their plate and passes it to the person to their right (or left.) It's your family's "traditional" sharing of Christmas dinner. 😁
😂
I feel SO much better about my family now! Thank you Miss Charlotte!
As for what to do to Mike, don’t reinvent the wheel; say the American pledge of allegiance. He’d NEVER expect that! 😉
Wouldn't that be weird being Canadian?
@@Delostacia start singing O Canada💀
@@Delostacia Unless he sees this.
Or tell *your* family that it's an important part of *his* family traditions.
Is there a Canadian pledge of allegiance? How about the Boy Scout oath?
@@Delostacia that’s what makes it weird! 😉😂
Have your family intersperse photos of a favorite celeb across their house, bathroom, amongst the family portraits, maybe make a dish that is made to resemble their portrait or is in honor of them. If you don’t already say grace include them in it. Just include this celeb (or celeb couple) in every aspect of your families life 😂
I love this idea! Hahah
Dedicate a chair at the table in that person's honor, with a framed picture of them on the table facing outward. I'm picturing Nicolas Cage, but anyone will do. 🤣
This is hilarious 😂 good idea
15:01 I love Santa Clause stopping in the middle of his busy work day to witness the chaos of the family dinner before he continues giving presents or coal to families xD
Hey Charlotte. I know you'll probably never see this, but I just wanted to say that this video made me laugh for the first time after what had to be one of the worst days of my life. I had to put my 14 year old cat down today and I've been inconsolable ever since. I had him since he was a kitten and he meant so much to me. I just wanted to thank you for lifting my spirits a little today.
My condolences for your loss!
3:31 can I have some of that dad? Looks LIT
I used to host Thanksgiving for my family plus friends who have no family. There were 17 people in all, I cooked every dish, decorated the table and set the place settings, and then after dinner 15 of those people disappeared , the only people remaining were my children ! As I cried I cleaned ALL the dishes then had to run my mother home ! Needless to say, I DO NOT miss those dinners !
I’m so sorry. I did it for 32 people and not one person helped! Never again!
That happened more than once???
@@sarahdoanpeace3623 wow that’s is so rude! I cannot eat at someone’s house and not wash the dishes for them at the very least!
Laughed hard when Charlotte said she was going to the frozen north and actually meant Calgary , then I looked up the temperature here in Calgary and cried as it is -35 degrees celsius right now. I have been at home sick for 2 weeks and did not realize just how cold it had gotten. =( Have a very wonderful Christmas with your family Charlotte =)
He greened out!!! 😂😂😂 Omg that's freaking awesome!!! I also love the druncle! So nice to see other family dysfunctions.
10:18 I love the dad’s wholesome reaction to his son’s attire 🥸 🌈 🐸 TOaDally reminds me of my pops! 🥹 when he would light up any time he was around his family! R.I.P. Dad 😂🛐❤❤❤🌹🎉
12/11- 10/27/09 💐 🕊️
My SIL brought her boyfriend over for the first time last Christmas. We put up a birthday banner (which he didn’t ask about). Then we all sat down, put a hand on the person to the lefts head and sang happy birthday to Jesus. Since we was the newest addition, we asked him to lead the singing. He was a good sport.
I LOST it at the pledge of allegiance, HER FACEEE xD I cant she did the spin! that is amazing!!!!
The family who did the pledge are legends and I love them.
Ahhh it's that time of day already. The potato queen has graced us with her presence
When Mike meets the parents, make him think that a sacrifice needs to be done before he meets them😂
The spin at the end of the Pledge of Allegiance was hysterical.....I wouldn't have been able to keep it together!
I had the radio on in the car driving to work this morning, and the Christmas song "Merry Christmas From the Family" by Montgomery Gentry came on. The song is awesome because it's so relatable, as we all have family members (or ARE one of them) who correspond to each of the characters in their song.
Does your family do board games (or silly card games like Cards Against Humanity)? You could always "scare" Mike by setting up a fake meltdown where someone goes completely berserk over "losing".... If you can, get ahold of a completely silly game like Quelf or Curses that has the players doing stupid (but harmless) tasks.....
This just reinforces why I am glad that the family has gotten MUCH smaller as I have gotten older; and, due to previously undiagnosed conditions, I can now get away with staying home for the holidays!!! But you all please go and enjoy your families.... Merry Christmas ⛄🎅🤶🎄
Totally get you! This year it's just me, my husband, my son and my mom (75) going out for dinner Christmas eve so nobody has to cook or worry. That's assuming we feel well enough to.
I made my first Christmas dinner in 2020 and it turned out great… we think. Everyone had covid and couldn’t taste or smell a thing!
😂😂🤣🤣🤣
At least you didn't get salmonella!
Lol
I’m a crazy auntie who cooks all day and loves it. I started taking over from my in laws a bit at a time. Then about 15 years ago, I was making everything but the in-laws said they wanted to help by buying the Thanksgiving turkey from Honeybaked Hams. When they finally showed up nearly an hour late… they had a deli plate of sliced turkey. lol. Still one of my favorite holiday memories and I still absolutely adore my in-laws but I made the turkey from then on.
The only nice thing about having a family that doesn’t get along is i don’t have to deal with anything like this 👏🏻 Holidays are fun for me now 😎🎉
I miss our huge family Christmas dinners. Now it is just me, my husband and son. Not dysfunctional in any way but being with all of the family can't be beat.
I think you guys should sing "O' Canada" I would literally pay to see that.
Man, I fully understand how hard it can be to be around family for a lot of people. My family has had our rough times, but it’s always a good time when we get together.
OMG! The pledge and turn around 🤣 That poor sweet girl!
I'm spending Christmas with one person, my boyfriend. The rest of the world can suck it 🤣🤣🤣
Tell him at the table the new guests have to make a toast to the turkey. BE SURE AND RECORD THIS!
I love the "let's go for a walk" crew. We're the cool cousins.
Where's the lighter??😂
Okay, I NEED you to understand- Carloandsarah are GOALS. Just- they’re everything. The sweetest. I love seeing them together, 1000/10 recommend
It wouldn’t be Christmas without family chaos. I’m grateful for the chaos is my family gatherings. EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM. Good luck to Mike. Charlotte, all I can say is I hope everything goes the way you wish it to be. Happy Holidays❄️☃️
Have your mom buy a ton of those mini marshmellows and put them on EVERYTHING...and act like it's totally normal LOL
🤣😂 i went from the little cousin, to the "cool" cousin, to the aunt cooking at 5am! It's so true!
I love the “wine for Grandma” story! 🤣😂🤣😂
Holidays like this and thanksgiving are really hard for me, humor wise. Pretty much everyone in my family, except for my mom and my brothers family are deceased, but even when they were alive we didn’t do like huge dinners with everyone together for them. These kind of family jokes just go over my head. I always feel like I’m missing a part of the holidays.
Edit: also our family didn’t believe in drinking alcohol (I do lol). I really would have loved drunk uncle stories.
You aren't missing out anything other than seeing random family members cry and others being drunk and/or judgy AF. I have had many family dinners like this, and as soon as I got a kid, I stopped and only celebrate with my tiny family now. No more week-long group messages about how much everyone behaved badly until new years.
You can always join my family for the holidays. We do a prime rib, with all kinds if fixings, and lots of wine, liquor, and rum. Lol let the festivities begin!!
@@thirstwithoutborders995 geeze, that sounds horrible. We get together, act like a bunch of asses, and leave as soon as everything is done because people are draining. Thanksgiving is my favorite because it's just food and a bunch of shit talking. Not a ton of clean up and unnecessary gifts. I mean, I always gift. I love seeing the gifts. But I never cared much for getting them aside from being a child. But I can't wait to give the gifts!! I can't hold onto them for nothing.
Same here. My family was very close, and Thanksgiving and Christmas were wonderful, fun times. We never had alcohol at Thanksgiving, but once we were all adults, we started having wine and champagne on Xmas Eve when we opened gifts. Only my brother and my sister's ex got drunk, and only my sister's ex turned into an abusive jackhole. Thankfully, he left the family sooner than later and it went back to being fun.
you are invite in my Xmas dinner...but of course this time...most of the children will stare at their phones and the adult eat eat and eat or netflix...at 12 praying time. welcome 🤗 non alcohol dinner 😜
I am that “aunt” that turns up for all my best friends family occasions, she comes to mine too, in fairness 😂😂
Those “walks” are my favorite part of the holiday season
I cannot relate to any of these but they’re still funny!
You rock, Charlotte! You’re someone I wish I could be best friends with. ☺️
For Mike: Hand him a copy of the long prayer your family always says before a family dinner and if there is someone new to the table (him), they get to say the prayer, by themselves, from memory. You may want to let your family know about the family prayer though.
My grandma just passed this year, but she was the one who didn't try to be nosey but always had 100 questions. Questions about things that didn't matter lol as much as it was so irritating at the time. I'm really going to miss it this year 😢
I lost mine last year and my grandpa this year. Same for me, let's be strong 💜
That smile you made after talking about sprinkling in drinking at 10 am and there being a time difference 😂 🕊️
Y'all got Ur uncle stoned!!!! Hilarious!!!! Thank you, Thank you, Thank You....This made my day!!!🤣🤣🤣
Goodmorning our BEAUTIFUL POTATO QUEEN!!!!
Edit: I'm the cool aunt who cooks all day. All the kids and family wanna be in the kitchen with me. Especially the kids. Dancing, singing, taste testing, and lots of wine to share with the adults.
And I too enjoy a good green out. Lmao!!!!!!
It's 10.37pm in my country 🇮🇳😇
Good evening, for me it’s 18:09.
Good evening you guys!!! I pray you're having an amazing night and have sweet dreams!
Are you the cool aunt if ya don’t allow the teens a sip when no one’s looking tho? 😉 Nah, you’re still the cool aunt having fun with them and including them!
I had two aunts like you. Only really got on with one in general, but my late aunt and I had an obsession with pies. I still haven’t tried to recreate her cherry since she passed, but those memories can never be beat.
Tell Mike that any time someone new comes for a family dinner they are expected to make some elaborate dessert that requires hours of baking.
As you cut the turkey, everyone takes a turn saying something positive about the turkey's life and mourning family. Hahaha
14:00 It's Carlo and Sarah! I'm DEAD! 😂🤣 I love their IG, hilarious.
I miss our old Thanksgiving. My grandma would somehow get everyone to come over (to my aunts house who hosted) for the meal she cooked. Didn't matter that people had other families and whatever, we always came over for her (and I mean cousins, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, etc). Ever since she passed 10 years ago, it's just been a very small Thanksgiving with just me and my sister and her family. No more big family gathering. This year will feel the most empty at Christmas since we lost my BiL's mom and my grandpa to covid. It's going to be rough but we're going to try to have the Christmas spirit
One year I was invited to my best friend’s large family thanksgiving feast. When I walked through the door; her sister yelled “Here’s our token Indian!!” The fixing and side vegetables all looked so delicious. All of a sudden my friend yelled aloud while passing a plastic take-out container down the big table towards me. (It was a Pad-Thai which by the time really smelled out of place) She said aloud: “No one touch this, it’s… (my name).
They were all super kind but I never forget the embarrassment.
I am sorry that happened to you. Some people's ability to think before speaking is turned off when they are with family.
@@tinapetrovicz9741 Thank you. I believe truly that it is never easy to navigate people of different complexion. Ones wanted to appear welcome and friendly but the guest is too foreign. I cherish all my experiences. :)
Wow what a yikes situation!
Pad thai?!? That’s so… weird! That was really, really weird!
@@BeeWhistler I came from Thailand. =) It’s my weakness to feel embarrassed among 10-12 people who were there. I know it’s a good practice to take things light-hearted. But one time is enough for me haha.
I love Christmas dinner! Thanksgiving has been less than fun the last couple of years, but not because of fights. Christmas though, has always been so much fun! Good, games, music, all the family being together and exchanging gifts...
I had the flu a week before Thanksgiving. I was better but my husband told everyone i had Covid. So no one would come over, and everyone asked us not to come. We cooked and stayed home all cozy a booed up. We did the same thing for Christmas this time, we told everyone the my husband had Covid. 😂❤️😂
I figured out really early after I had my oldest that I was the one with the baby and I could make people come to me. I think like her second Xmas. I also decided we'd have our meal in the evening because I wanted to spend Xmas morning with my kids unwrapping presents, not in the kitchen. It was just a bonus that my family won't come cause they feel you have to have dinner at noon. They'd stop in for a short visit in the afternoon after their meal but before I got hectic in the kitchen which was more than enough for me. Some years it's just our little family, many years we have the kin that matter to us and our chosen family present. It's just so much less stressful.
I've been having a really awful day, and week to be honest, so when I saw you posted it made me feel so much better! thank u charlotte for always making my day better!
I’m sorry to hear that you’re going through it, Tater Tot. Thank you for showing up and sharing with us! Our community is so much better with you in it!
I'm so sad your day is shit. But you're THE SHIT and can totally roll with it. I believe in you tater tot bestie!! I pray it gets getter.
Hang in there it's going to be allright
Hope your week will get better pronto! Take care ❤️
Hope your day gets better !
Thanks for making me way less sad that I'm 1200 miles away from my family this holiday. After watching this I can now remember why it's probably not a bad thing I will miss the train wreck to come this season lol
I had a friend who took her boyfriend home for the first time, they sat him at the very end of a full table of her siblings. They asked him if he would like a steak “yes please” so they flung a steak to him from the other end of the table 😂😂
Lmao having a sense of humor, being a parent to older kiddos & watching Charlotte to get some ideas for future xmas dinners with kids significant others😂😂😂 (* insert petty cackle here)
I never thought I'd see Gibi ASMR in a Charlotte video but here we are. The crossover I didn't know I needed
I was literally about to comment the same thing. 😄
For real I was like Gibi.
This is the comment I was looking for. I was like is that Gibi? That’s Gibi right? Lol thank you for the confirmation
YES!! Was looking for this.
i had to stop the video to make sure my eyes werent decieving me
Spent most of my Christmasses with my husbands family, because I am an immigrant with no family or friends here. I don’t connect with them well. But I lost my father a month ago, so this year will be extra hard knowing I don’t really have my own family anymore. Don’t mean to bring people down ;)
Thanks Charlotte for making me laugh every night while doing my bedtime routine, especially this month. Happy holidays and I hope you have an amazing new years. ❤
I am so sorry for your loss. I hope you feel your father's love as well as your family's love. He loved you and nothing changes that. That love stays and grows with you. Not connecting with inlaws especially as an immigrant can feel incredibly lonely. I hope that doesn't diminish your spark! Are you able to connect with other immigrant/international groups? Language classes of any sort have been a source of friendships for me. If you have kids, getting in touch with other internationally minded parents may also help. Hang in there!
@@AceofRoses510 Hi Any, how sweet of you. I used to hang out with a group of other Dutch people but it was in the city and we moved a little further away, on top of being in the pandemic. Thanks for your tips, I don't have kids, but you do make a good point. I'll definitly try and rekindle those relationships. Hope you had amazing holidays!
The family at the restaurant with the shiney outfit...all their videos are hilarious!! They mess with each other in such annoying but loving ways haha
I love them too. And the Father is usually in on it too.😂
@@collette9008 oh jeez yes!! He is as bad as the boys with the silly things they do! 😅
When I finished this video, to my delight one of their shorts showed up! It's called 'Saucy tv' 😂.
Idea for first dinner together at the family home: Have everyone stand up at a predetermined time, stop everything else they're doing, and sing Oh, Canada!
So many Christmas survival stories! My husband and I had several happy years escaping to motorway services every Christmas morning for a coffee hour to save our sanity x
"You got in on affirmative!"
"Well then starts your excuse?"
This is a beast of a joke lmao
You should observe a moment of silence for the potatoes that gave their lives for the dinner and then make the silence go on for an awkwardly long time
Due to my fiance's side of the family bringing up politics during Thanksgiving, which divulged into general rudeness on their side, we are contemplating pretending to be sick or just showing up for an hour or two.
We are celebrating Christmas eve with my side, and all I have to do is bring the scallope potatoes. Also, listen to my mom vent about family drama for a awhile, then sneak away to catch up with my siblings.
Or your fiance could just have an honest conversation with them. It's not something you should do, but he needs to.
@@amandastjohn4735 I have left that decision to him since, just like if it were my side of the family I would be making that decision.
*sigh* this is the first time in 20 years that we won’t be celebrating with our son at the table… he will be gallivanting around Italy with his GF❤ Lucky kids!
I’m looking forward to spending some time with my mom, who no longer is a chicken in primavera ( nor am I)
Happy Holidays Everyone!!!
Be thankful he is just in Italy. I lost my son a month and a half ago and wish he was just in Italy.
@@dede8250 I’m very sorry for your loss-❤️
My parents got the father of my kids really drunk, like really drunk. He got sick and took a bath, he was singing love songs to me in the bath on christmas eve 7pm. We haddnt opened any presents yet, dinner was yet to be had. You could get Mike really really drunk. We ended up having dinner with him and a lovely evening filled with compliments on his singing (he's a good singer they werent sarcastic), we ate good foood, opened up a bunch of presents and had alot of fun.
Charlotte, you should have your entire family rock your Petty merch and your father dress up as Santa to give everyone their presents Christmas morning! 😂 Or have Mike as the guest of honor have to say grace before the meal or give a toast to everyone once the meal has begun.
The grandma who drank two bottles of wine reminds me of the way my family would treat my maternal grandma. We didn't give her two bottles of wine, but she'd get to sit in a nicer chair than the rest of us, we'd give her coffee or tea to her, deliver it to her, & my mom would make me play violin for her. What a life.
Lol Charlotte is a LEGEND at this point. 😂👏great idea for a video. Merry christmas everyone. 💚🎄❤️
Charlotte is a woman after my own heart! Bailey's in your coffee, rum in your eggnog, but also Tia Maria in your hot chocolate! Wonderful drinks, and so nice on Christmas! ;)
What... in tarnation... is a Tia Maria? Sounds like an early 90's star of a kid sitcom.
@@ellencox8415 Tia Maria is like Kalhua, but better. Coffee flavored liquor. ;)
0:33 lmao 🤣 😂 so many times I've rolled up a joint in the bathroom, grabbed my favorite family member and tell the rest of everyone "We're gonna take a walk". I don't even use perfume anymore to mask the smell. I just straight up febreeze by the door.
GOOD MORNING MISS CHARLOTTE AND ALL THE TATER TOTTIES! GO POTATO QUEENNNNNN! Am I too enthusiastic? Lol
Good morning! And just the right amount of enthusiasm as one cannot be TOO enthusiastic about a new Miss Charlotte video. 😉
I look foward to your videos everyday Potato Queen! I love you Charlotte!
I have not had a single raucous holiday since my daddy died. I miss that brilliant, beautiful bastard. I’m the only fun one left from that whole side of the family, and I’m so grateful for my outstanding husband and my hilarious kids.
Hahahaha “Greened Out” I freaking LOVE that!!
