[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My number one holiday pet peeve is when my BIL (not married, no kids) makes things entirely about himself with no self-awareness of the way he's burdening other people or just being a pain. Stuff like demanding certain side dishes because they are "tradition" even though he is the only adult who does ZERO cooking for the meal. Or him holding up the start of dinner by [b]disappearing right before the meal[/b], but then getting militant about the kids staying at the table during the meal even though they are ansty because we all had to wait around for 20 minutes prior to the start of the meal for him (and he will have a fit if we start without him).

But there's no lesson to be learned here. He's just an impossible person and he's extra bad on holidays because having family around and a big event activates his mental health issues. We just live with it an move on. But thanks for letting me vent![/quote]

Is he the one going out to the car for that "secret vodka?" Or is that a different poster's guest (read upthread)?[/quote]
