The turkey was not the only thing getting attention

So there is a Reddit thread with 84k upvotes where a guy admits he drove four hours to his buddy’s Thanksgiving purely to ‘help with the dishes.’ His buddy has been married six years. Nobody has ever once offered to help with the dishes before. The comments cracked the case in three replies.
The son’s friends began turning up at 2pm instead of 6pm. Offering to haul the groceries in from the car. Asking whether there is 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 completely unhinged

‘She made a green bean casserole.’ That is the whole message. Twelve men replied 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.
The TikTok with 6 million views began at a Thanksgiving table

Someone filmed a ‘chaotic family holiday’ video and the comment section instantly became a crime scene. Top comment: ‘I have watched this 47 times and I am not here for the turkey.’ Second comment: ‘your son’s friends are very dedicated to your cooking.’ The third is just a string of emojis that tells you everything you need to know.
The woman in the video has no idea why her FYP suddenly delivers 300 new followers every morning. Her daughter-in-law has a very good idea. She is not saying anything just yet.
