DEEP DIVE

This Thanksgiving, November 28th, is a time for turkey, family, football, and memes. If you need to take a break from all the cooking or distract yourself from all the Ok Boomer/Ok Zoomer/Ok Millennial/Ok Karen/Ok Trumper shots being fired, chill out and reset your vibes with these holiday memes.

Thanksgiving Meme Hall Of Fame

While 2019 will be sure to bring in its own unique Thanksgiving memes, some memes of years’ past deserved to be remembered including the “How do I cook a 25 lb turkey in the microwave?” prank and that time turkeys creepily circled a dead cat.

Still tryna figure out how to fit the turkey in a microwave. Any tips?
