You know, every Christmas, I feel like a little child. But we always get turkey.

What it means
Our interpretation.
Feeling like a little child first suggests a familiar Christmas emotion. The mention of getting turkey then makes feel like sound like a statement of appetite instead. That change of meaning creates the dark joke, turning an apparently innocent seasonal comparison into an alarming alternative to dinner.
