    2. "Pour a little gravy on my thighs -- I'm stuck in this chair!"

    3. "Butterball? No. It's an Elian brand turkey -- when it's ready, Janet Reno's thugs kick in the door and pull it out of the oven at gunpoint."

    4. "Stop that, Little Tommy! I told you... no Asian market trading during dinner!"

    5. "There's a piece of colored paper underneath everyone's plate. Whoever has the brown one has to change Grandpa after dinner."

    8. "Mom! I just saw Granny sticking her hand into the turkey's 'special places'!"

    9. "I said, 'Pass the mother*&%#$! yams', mother*&%#$!" (Samuel L. Jackson's house only)

    10. "Mom, can I have a second helping of guilt trip?"

    11. "Oh, yeah?! We'll see if you still think this is a dysfunctional family with a drumstick shoved up your ass!"

    12. "Yes, Mr. President, we understand. You're a breast man. That's very funny, Sir."

    13. "Mom! Uncle Stu went to sleep under the kids' table and the dogs are eating his throw-up!"
