Home for the Holidays is one of my favourite Christmas dramedies about a dysfunctional family, starring Holly Hunter, Robert Downey Jnr. And Claire Danes, yet it's severely underrated. The Family Stone is also worth a watch.
Not everyone celebrates Christmas as there are Hanukah and Kwanzaa. For me, some family members come over while we visit them on some years. The holidays are cool but also a pain in the butt.
My family gatherings for the holidays usually consist of just 5-10 people, the only reasons it can be chaotic sometimes because each of us have a healthy degree of crazyness😅.
Thanksgiving went from being my favorite holiday 15 years ago to being my LEAST favorite holiday in 2024. MAGA relatives are just not worth spending time with anymore, I'd honestly rather be alone on Thanksgiving than break bread with these people.
Family gatherings are mostly okay we all do our best to be civil and politics is not really brought up although if one of us got a bad grade or when a job ends badly it was the favorite time of my mom to bring it up so I had to tip toe around it to not let it explode and usually it works but for the most part I still love the Holidays. My favorite Christmas Movie is a Christmas Carol most versions and my favorite one with a crazy family is National Lampoons so funny and heartwarming
I love the holidays and really long to celebrate in a way where I can enjoy it. I went back to college this year as an older Adult in California but all my family is Ohio. Last night for the first time I said that as much as I feel sad about not going to Ohio for thanksgiving, I feel good not having to pretend like we are one big happy family. The past three years my family, specifically mom has not treated me well and the first time I can admit that I am not ok with how they treated me so I am not going to “reward” that. Anyways I think it should be normalized to allow for new experiences instead of trying to create old nostalgic feelings or fitting into others fantasies.
On Thanksgiving 2 years ago, my own sister and I got into a brawl at the table while everyone was eating!! Haven’t seen or heard from her since but yeah, holidays don’t mean shit when someone in the family has a severe mental illness
Christmas will never be the same since I watched that episode in the 2nd season of The Bear where a family gathering got completely out of hand. Luckily my family isn’t that dysfunctional
In India, we can have chaos on more than one occasion. So many opportunities, no one wants to feel left out. P.S. Loved the focus on ‘Heartstopper’ Season 3.

I love watching it on screen but going to see homophobic family members, yeah I just skip the holidays. I would love to see a holiday special where the adult child picks up and leaves and goes to another house and never comes back.

The Take being like: "Are you too stressed about the holidays? Get stoned!"
I appreciate it, I will get stoned.
Kevin McAllister wasn't living it up at Christmas, he was trying to protect the family home from burglars.
And this is why so many people love The Grinch. He lives on a mountain to get away from the lunatics.
Kevin did end up missing his family and his mom really tries to reunite with him both times

You meant to say also.
Yep home for the holidays is underrated

Neat, that sounds fun, everyone has their own holiday traditions, and they're usually enjoyable, albeit stressful.

@@angelaholmes8888Particularly this year. I’m on my own this Thanksgiving and my family is MAGA free! Just not feeling festive.

I'm sorry that happened to you I hope this year will be better
As a kid I never wanted family to leave me alone so I could play with presents. I loved seeing family. 🎉
I just get drunk on holidays that's my solution to survive my family 😂 and tune them out~ (not literally because they would notice the ear buds 😅)
I would like to say, in defense of keven maccallister, they WERE picking on him.

Kevin had to prevent his house from being burglarized
Please do the Christmas working dad trope.

You forgot to mention Festivus 1:11
I’m rewatching the thanksgiving episode of gossip girl where Serena overdosed

Any family reunion is chaotic in my family😢
We like what we like

IMHO, It's distasteful of The Take to promote Marijuana related products. Just my opinion here🤷
