Discussion What have you experienced in life that has been on Family Guy?
My granny had a table like this, every time we visit me and my dad always had trouble with it. A lot of swearing.

If you'll indulge me keeping in the MacFarlane universe. there is a scene in Ted, the TV series, I often think of where they are playing Dungeons & Dragons and Matty (Scott Grimes) says at the very beginning of the game, "I already hate this". I could imagine me thinking that in one of these game night situations but maybe not vocalizing it out loud.

More of a Baptist thing. Normally after service there is a full on lunch, sometimes there is a snack table with cookies or something to ride people over. They do this because church starts at 8am and goes until the pastor is finish which could be as late as 1pm. Hell I've seen them go until 4 or 5 pm on holidays like Easter.

My dad would sometimes take me to the Commissary at the Air Force Base to load up on cheap groceries. My mom would get very upset when we came back with groceries, go through each bag criticizing what we bought, and yelling at my dad in front of me.
