Toxic Turkey 

Code word some people use to refer to talking or spending time with their toxic relatives on Thanksgiving and having uncomfortable and inappropriate conversations that leave a bad taste in the mouth.

Person 1: "Did you go back home for Thanksgiving?"

Person 2: "No, but my problematic mother and estranged sister called me three days after the holiday, put me on speaker so grandma could hear, and asked me why I didn't call that day."
Person 1: "Ugh, not again!"

Person 2: "Seriously, they ignore my calls on the reg for the whole year and then guilt-trip me for not being the one to call THEM when they just could've as easily called ME. The entire call left a bad taste in my mouth and I feel like I just ate a bad turkey, as if it was toxic or something..."
Person 1: "Yep. Happy Toxic Turkey day!"
Person 2: "Thanks..?"
Person 1: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
