    We usually go out for dinner during the holidays as a family and some friends will tag along. My dad will probably start complaining about the food, service, etc. Eventually, he will make a big scene in front of the whole restaurant complete with curse words thrown at the waiter, manager, and everyone else involved. Yup, kinda embarassing.

    My family's probably going to embarass me by constantly asking when my wife and I are going to have kids. It will only get more awkward as the night goes on and the relatives get drunk on punch. please consider us for the free tickets, thanks!

    There will definitely be some foul air released when family is around by both men and women, also sporting of holiday boxers by the older men in the after a few drinks will take place. Yeah holidays. Embarrassing absolutely, but entertaining to say the least. Love us some free tickets though!!!

    ooo goodnesss where to begin… Well last year my grandfather who is nocturnal and watches informational told me about the proactiv commercial by saying "you know they have stuff for those spots on your face' And, then after my grandma died he offered me all of her bras and underwear saying "she didnt die of any disease or anything so you should take them. There is no one else I'd rather have them" "ok… thanks". My divorced parents will cause some sort of scene now that my husband and I host Christmas eve dinner. His family is much more reserved and classy so I am always nervous when we all get together. Or my husbands grandma was just moved into a nursing home and some one gave her a bath and she told us how thats the most action she has gotten in years.

    well lets see they will say something about my not going to school… how i am a disgrace because i dropped out of college… or because i had a child out of wedlock and am raising her with just me and no child support… or how i better find a man to take care of me and my daughter since i supposedly cant… or how i am not doing a good enough job taking care of my sick mom and my dad who passed in april would be dissappointed… it goes on… my sister and i will be at the show to see the greatest bands on earth to “get away” from “real life” if only for a moment to celebrate her birthday! and we are SOOOOOOOOOO excited to go!!!!!!

    Both my mother and mother-in-law will pester me about having children. My mom will start talking about how beautiful being pregnant and giving birth is (all the bloody details included) and the fact that I'm going to be too old if I wait much longer (I just turned 25). Then, my mother-in-law will find some way to bring up my husband's ex-girlfriend and how wonderful she is and how many beautiful children they would have had by now. This will in turn lead to a fight between the two of them as the rest of my family grab another eggnog and watch as my husband tries to take his mom's alcohol from her, which never works. The same scenario has worked itself out at every special occasion since our wedding over five years ago. I could use a break before another round of this.

    Hopefully this year won't be like the last, when my Husband's Uncle got all of us drunk on Patron Shots at 3 PM in the afternoon. A great way to introduce yourself to some family members you haven't met before is to pass out before dinner, and then interrupt dessert with the sound of praying to the porcelain gods. Oh wait — this is supposed to be about how THEY will embarrass ME, not how I embarrassed myself. Regardless, no Patron for me this year. Not till after dinner anyway.

    At some point, i imagine there will be discussion about my grandfather and his bowels, along with either my father or grandfather discussing their sex lives and/or ability to get an erection.

    Hi, my name is Kaja and i'm almost 10 years old. My brothers name is Kyson and he is 7. We've been listening to Pomeroy since before we were born! We really don't want our parents to embarrass us at the show Wednesday night, but I'm sure they will (have you seen them dance? UGH!)
    We're excited to go and so happy Pomeroy is putting on another show for us all!

  • Nicole Southall

    My mother and mother-in-law will start in on me immediately about having kids. My mom will want to talk about how beautiful pregnancy and child birth are (all of the bloody details included) and that I had better not put it off much longer because I'm getting kinda old (I just turned 25). Then, my mother-in-law will find a way to bring my husband's ex-girlfriend into the conversation. She'll talk about how beautiful she is and how their love was "written in the stars" and they would have had several gorgeous babies by now. This will get my family all riled up and a big argument will ensue. I can almost guarantee that this is how it will play out because some form of this scenario has occurred at every special occasion since our wedding 5 years ago. A nice night out before all of the drama would be amazing!!

    Lets see, where to begin. It'll start with my grandma asking me if I've put on weight, and wondering if I've auditioned for The Biggest Loser yet. Then we proceed to everyone mindlessly making small talk and asking me how my job is going (Why yes, everything is still fine in the bartending business.) Then someone will inevitably drink too much and bring up some form of uncomfortable sex-driven discussion as I sit next to mom, sister, and 10 year old niece. Can't wait! The only saving grace might be that II'll still be hungover and somewhat braindead from the show on Wednesday night.

    So if things go like how they went last time I was with my family, I will definitely need the break from the embarrassment. Last time I spent time with my family, my uncle first asks when my boyfriend and I will be getting married, and then asks if he needs to take him to a jewelry store. Then my uncle proceeds to tell my 2nd cousin that of all the cousins I am the one to try to hook up with, cause I am the best looking one in his opinion. Then to top things off he mentions that the only way I could look better was if I got my boobs done. It's been 6 months since that visit, so I am sure there will be more talk about needing to get engaged.

    Then I will also get to spend some time with my boyfriend's family, where the very religious aunt and uncle will also be there, looking down on us because we are living in sin by living together plus looking down on us for drinking alcohol.
