family hopping

Definition

The exhausting holiday tradition of visiting multiple relatives' houses in rapid succession, combining the logistics of a military operation with the diplomatic skills of a UN negotiator. Not unlike bar hopping, except instead of collecting drinks, you're collecting awkward questions about your love life and Tupperware full of leftovers. Peak season: Thanksgiving through New Year's.

Example Usage

"I can't stay long—I'm family hopping today and still have to hit Grandma's, Aunt Carol's, and my cousin's place before dinner."

glurbozo

An idiot, but make it sound like a Dr. Seuss character gone wrong. This delightfully nonsensical insult combines the whimsy of made-up words with the directness of calling someone stupid. It's what you say when "moron" feels too harsh but "silly goose" doesn't quite capture the magnitude of their foolishness.
