If you’re on the fence about traveling to eat pie and dry meat & breathe on your family, consider the fact that in-person Thanksgiving celebrations are going to be more a*shole-heavy than ever this year. Would you endanger your own health in order to go to a bar on Jerk Night?

"We're only getting together for Thanksgiving" is 2020's answer to "we'll cover more ground if we split up" or "I'll go reset the breakers in the basement by myself."
