The holidays can be stressful when you're spending them with family. It's the big sit-down dinner that is probably most intimidating, since it's the time when conversations can go haywire or, more outlandishly, when your drunk uncle starts a food fight. And that's what makes this one-minute spot from United Airlines—which essentially outlines the safety precautions of a holiday dinner with relatives—so spot-on we can't help but crack up every time we watch it.

In it, two presumably former flight attendants guide their guests through the meal they're about to share. Grandma and Grandpa run through a spiel that parallels the typical guidelines you'd hear before take-off.

There are a few good cracks in the commercial, but the best line, in our opinion, is when the matriarch warns about exit seating. "If you are seated near an exit, you may be asked to retrieve more mashed potatoes." And then grandpa chimes in with: "If you're incapable, or just not in the mood, please ask to be reseated."
