So I'm 26M, and I'm staying with my parents. Happy Thanksgiving everyone who doesn't celebrate but likes taking time off to hang out with their family and stuff.
Anyway I get some pretzels from a vending machine this afternoon and when they fell out they knocked out some peanut m & ms too. Which is great because I wasn't expecting to have them but I freaking love peanut m & ms.
Anyway then it's tonight and I'm high and I want some peanut m & m s. So I get some from my bag. Then I decide this would go great with some club soda so I walk to the kitchen with the m & ms in one hand to get a can because my dad doesn't mind sharing.
I run into my mom in the kitchen. "I'm going to eat some peanut m & ms," I tell her.
She's says, "no."
I'm confused.
"Not right now," she says.
So I sit down at the table and she leaves the room. And I'm sitting there with my peanut m & ms and I'm so confused. So eventually I go to her in the living room and say.
"Why not?"
She says, "why what?"
I say, "why can't I eat my m & ms right now, Mom?"
And she says, "huh?"
Anyway, after much confusion it turned out that I thought she thought I had asked her if she wanted to eat m & ms. Now it's like an hour later and she knows I was high and that I asked her permission to have candy and she thinks its hilarious.
Tl;dr: Got high and misunderstood a conversation, much to my mom's amusement.

Sounds like a typical high situation.
But the real question is, how else does one celebrate Thanksgiving other than taking time off work and hanging with family?
