Thanksgiving can be really great - you've got all of that delicious food and all of your family all in one place. However, sometimes the family situation can be a little much; you love 'em but they all love to bring up the fact that you're almost 30 and still not married, or that one embarrassing thing you did when you were four years old. And the icing on the cake? That inevitable family fight that always happens at the end of the evening. It can all be too much sometimes!
If you need to just get away from it all, then we gotchu.
And what are we thankful for this year? All of you, of course!
The love of grandparents is a very special type of unconditional. Many times they won't even flinch at something your parents would absolutely freak about. If you're lucky, they would slip you money or feed you dessert for dinner. Even if your grandparents are spoiling you from the afterlife, these posts are sure to bring you back to a simpler time when you were "looking a little skinny" or needed "just one more helping."
Chances are, you'll probably recognize at least some of these things from your childhood days of staying at your grandparents' house - we certainly did. Definitely brings back those fond memories of opening up the basement closet and finding some of the toys and games your parents used to play with. A lot of this stuff you probably even forgot existed, so get ready for a major nostalgia trip!

Thanksgiving is the perfect breeding ground for these annoying comments and questions, so prepare yourself by browsing through these hilarious clapbacks!
Having your aunts, uncles, grandparents and cousins all in one place for the holidays can be pretty damn stressful! You love 'em, but at the same time you really can't stand them.

It can all get to be too much, so here's some memes to help you recover!
