DEAR HEAVENS, YES!!!

I suspect this is all made up, as it has the same writing style of the lady with the dogs/no dogs Thanksgiving fiasco. It's entertaining though, so keep going.

OP, please make this into a netflix holiday movie

You made the best choice for your family: own it. She sounds like a nutter. So what? World's full of nuts.

But world-class nuttery such as this must be celebrated. Even if it’s fake.

OP, you didn’t answer but have you posted about this aunt before? She sounds like a real trip!

Is your aunt by chance this person’s cousin?

Just ask neighbors for an RV? This is right up there with begging for free stuff on the neighborhood listserv.

This is hysterical! My favorite line in OP’s update: “I can't imagine knocking on my retiree neighbors door and asking to borrow their Winnebago to go to holiday prison camp.”

I can’t wait to hear more about the holiday prison camp planning. OP- are any of the relatives planning to go and follow Crazy Aunt’s directives? And how is Uncle Bill holding up? He sounds stressed about the poop situation.

Might I suggest adult diapers?

OMG this makes me want to scream!! To the people thinking this is just someone spinning a story.... Hey maybe it is, maybe it isn't, but I can ABSOLUTELY see the crazy controlling self-appointed family planner/aunt from my ex-in law family trying to bully the family into doing something ridiculous like this just so she'd have an audience and could control everyone for a big holiday . Heck part of me thinks it IS about her. 🤢 I'll never forget our big epic family reunion trip that she expertly planned where 27 people flew to middle of nowhere Texas to all cram into a 3 bedroom cabin with one working bathroom.

OMG. Do spill more details. Did you all really stay at the cabin or did you have to scramble for a place to stay?

We all crammed in. One couple that had small children got one of the bedrooms, the Aunt and her husband got one bedroom, and the remaining bedroom was a room of like 4 sets of double bunk beds that some couples crammed into. Everyone else was all "assigned" by crazy Aunt to sleep on a big screened in porch that had a bunch of pull out couches etc. Some were just foldout chairs. This was also the main hangout room for the group so we had no privacy ever and had to wait until hanging out/drinking for the night was finished before we could pull out our "beds".

When we arrived, dear Auntie was already there and had made an enormous pot of soup, which she stated was supposed to get us all "through the weekend". The group promptly ignored her and a bunch of us crammed into one of rental cars to go load up at the local grocery. She kept insisting the soup would be "fine" as we left.

This is the first thread in a long time that actually made me laugh out loud. I 100% believe it, too.
