For one reason or another, in my family there are almost no conflicts. The people who don't get along with one another celebrate holidays in separate camps. Nobody forces any togetherness, except at weddings and funerals, and we're all civil at those events. We are smaller groups, but more agreeable.
I got my buddy to get me some Whiskey and Rum. While everyone enjoys their Christmas parties, I'll be making myself a Red Baron pizza in the oven, and having a grand old time.
