While the whole idea behind celebrating thanksgiving is to express gratitude towards the people and things we have in our lives, we cannot say that we aren't even a teensy-weensy bit thankful for memes. The meaning of memes in our lives have gone beyond just making us laugh, it has become a language that we millennials are fluent in. This Thanksgiving let's be thankful for the memes, with some thanksgiving memes! The history of Thanksgiving dates back to 1621, when a day was dedicated to the Pilgrims' celebration of a good harvest. People sat together to eat in a way of thanking God for the food.

Thanksgiving meme trends usually include amazing Thanksgiving clapbacks that we totally dig and Thanksgiving with black family (not being racist, at all) memes that take over the internet. Then there are classic friends memes that never become old. Hilarious memes and jokes that you can share with family and friends make Thanksgiving even more special, right? Really have no idea what made family gatherings less awkward before memes became common. Here's a list of Thanksgiving memes that will make you laugh while you binge on your roasted turkey.

Burnol, Anyone?
