Sidesgiving 

An alternative to the traditional Thanksgiving dinner centered around a humongous, oven-hogging bird, in which you and your guests make the meal about the sides instead of the turkey. Because if turkey is so great why don't we eat it all year? More mashed potatoes, please!
"What unspeakable hour are you going to get up at on your day off to put that 20 lb. turkey into the oven?"

"Maybe, like, 10 a.m."

"Whaaaaat?! It'll never be ready for dinner at 3!"

"Yeah, that's okay, because we're not having turkey this year. We're doing Sidesgiving. Sucker."

Sicksgiving 

A holiday (not necessarily Thanksgiving) wherein every man/woman/child in a household contracts a viral or bacterial infection, typically gastrointestinal in nature. Everyone ends up competing for toilet time, and the house essentially becomes an infirmary. Additionally, the individual responsible for spreading the outbreak (ground zero) is reminded of his/her lameness on every subsequent holiday.
Coworker 1: So how was your holiday break?

Coworker 2: Awful!

Coworker 1: Really? Why?

Coworker 2: My in-laws stayed with us. My mother-in-law was sick, then got all of us sick. It was a pukefest and shitfest--man it sucked. Happy Sicksgiving to me.
