Pretending to be sick to avoid quarrels at the dinner table😅
Family get-togethers at my house are a circus—minus the popcorn. Last Thanksgiving, my mom and aunt were in a silent battle over who made the better stuffing, while my siblings turned the living room into a WWE ring over the remote. Meanwhile, I had a mountain of emails waiting for me, but apparently, "work" is just code for "anti-social" in my family.
So, I pulled the classic move—clutching my forehead and mumbling about a splitting headache. Suddenly, everyone was fussing over me, and I got to retreat to my room, finally basking in the sweet sound of silence. For a brief moment, my "migraine" was the star of the show, not the endless bickering.
Ever had to invent an excuse just to survive family chaos? Tell me your best escape stories—maybe we’ll all pick up a few new tricks! 🤫
