My office is throwing a Thanksgiving costume party on Wednesday. I'm thinking of going as my lame-ass boss, the biggest turkey on the planet. Thoughts?
Thank you,
Mable in accounting
Dear Mable,
Great idea. I say go for it. Maybe he's so dumb, he won't realize you're rudely ridiculing him. Or maybe he's smarter than you think. Play it safe and put together a box of your personal belongings in case they escort you out of the building.
You're Welcome,

This year, I'm schlepping from Reseda to Riverside for Thanksgiving. According to my traffic app, I should pack an overnight bag and leave now. But that's not even the main issue. The invite says "Sing For Your Supper." I can't sing for ka-ka and don't want to embarrass myself in front of my snooty-patootie second cousins, the Warbling Yentas. Any thoughts on how I can save face?
Thanks,
Gratitude Challenged
Here's what you do. Make a duplicate of the invite, but reverse the 'n' and the 'g' and bring it with you, along with your legal representative. When your host complains about the extra guest, just say, "This is Morty Epstein, my attorney. The invite clearly states Sign For Your Supper. See? Morty brought along all the necessary documents. Oh, and he doesn't mind sitting at the kids' table."
You're Welcome,
The SJG
