Re: Thanksgiving
Taken from a widely circulated email from a neurotic family member detailing precisely how the rest of the family should prepare for thanksgiving, right down to the size of the casserole dishes. The infamous "Thanksgiving Letter" email, circulated on several food blogs before exploding on AwkwardFamilyPhotos.com is brought to life as we explore the psychological under pinnings behind a "No Cocktail Sauce" rule. We found our Marney letter from Awkward Family Photos which led us to Kara DeFrias. The names have been changed.
How else would you have adapted the letter? Do you have a Marney in your life? Are you a Marney?
Check out the letter that inspired it all and on Awkward Family Photos. For a more in depth look go to http://www.inst-msgs.com.
Hope you had a Happy Thanksgiving! If you're hiding from your crazy family behind your laptop, check out previous INST MSGS episodes and other shows on Revision3.com!
