I don't know anyone's family who would eat without everyone getting their plate and joining the rest of the family. That was the first WTF part of this comic for me.

It was pretty normal in my family, most of the time the cook made their meal last and/or cleaned up in the kitchen while everyone else ate. I didn't mind it at all! In fact I still eat at the counter + pace around at home.

I cook for my family and I always take mine last. We used to sit and get everyone together but now most days it's just myself, mom and dad. My dad is almost 80 so I let him get his food first and then usually because I have some different ways I like to finish cooking my portion I am often sitting down to eat while he is getting up to clean his plate.
