If Grandma tells you to do it, don’t ask questions.
"The young children get chased around by the crazy uncle who has a pig's tongue in his hand. Happens every year. Never fails."

"We have a set of wooden alphabet blocks, handmade by my grandparents, that spell out MERRY CHRISTMAS. My siblings and I have a tradition of rearranging them to say … different things. My personal favorites are 'RECTYM RIMS RASH' (OK, we cheated with the spelling) and SHART, SIMMER, CRY' (commas implied, not actually included). 'MERRY SHIT CRAMS' is also a classic family favorite.
The goal is always to use all of the letters and not misspell anything, but there's only so much you can do with too many R's and not enough vowels."
"My three brothers and I (aged 34, 33, 31, and 28) have been 'accepting the burp' every Christmas for YEARS. Basically, it's the one day of the year that you can burp, blow it in your sibling's face, and they have to waft it toward themselves as a sign of good will and acceptance. We just can't let it go!"
