“It’s Thanksgiving. Want to skip that long, insulting conversation about how you’re still single? About how your parents want more grandchildren? Well, look no further. I am a 30 year old army vet with no diploma, some impressive scars, and a super beat up pickup truck. I work at a culinary institute with some catering and bartending on the side. If you’d like to have me as your strictly platonic date for Thanksgiving, but have me pretend to be in a very long or serious relationship with you to torment your family, I’m game. I’ll happily: hit on other guests (regardless of gender), start instigative discussions about politics or religion, propose to you in front of everyone, pretend to be super drunk, or start an actual, physical fight with your least favorite family member (and win). All I ask for in payment is the meal itself, plus I’m happy to bring a dish of your choosing.” Or, Eliot posts a Craigslist ad so he can have a homecooked Thanksgiving meal, and ends up with so, so much more.
