50 Thanksgiving Memes for You to Gobble Up

You’re not alone

It’s my Thanksgiving wish to eat as much mashed potatoes as possible.

The turkey’s perspective

We don’t speak of such betrayal in this Thanksgiving-loving household.

You wore jeans

The rookie mistake strikes again.

Family conversation starter

Fork down. My fight or flight mode has been engaged.

Dessert time

My priorities just shifted.

The heftover heist

Mission accomplished.

The food coma hits

Sleep won. Plates lost.

Not hungry … or am I?

Because you can never have too much turkey … or can you?

You found the gravy

Hydrate responsibly … with gravy.

Mashed potato sculptor

Michelangelo could never.

Stuffing negotiator

Stuffing is a love language.

It’s my time to shine

The goal: Don’t let anyone know it’s my first time making Thanksgiving dinner.

Always room for dessert

“Pie am so grateful for dessert.” How’s that for a Thanksgiving pun?

Don’t lie

We already know you ate the Thanksgiving turkey.

Sorry spook lovers …

Halloween is officially over. It’s Thanksgiving season now.

The best turkey

Sorry bud, we chose another turkey to cook this year.

I can’t wait

My mind is full of all things Thanksgiving, including funny Thanksgiving quotes.

Let’s be honest …

The funniest Thanksgiving memes are always the most relatable. But really, who cuts pie like this?

Neither do we

My only regret is not having enough room for more.

The food …

It’s always the food.

That post-turkey nap

Turkey dinner never fails to knock you right out.

Stuffed, but not too stuffed

There’s always room for more if you really commit.

We get it

Turkey, cranberry sauce and pumpkin pie? Us too. Instead of posting on Instagram, consider showing off your knowledge with Thanksgiving trivia.

Mashed potatoes with a spoon, please

And don’t forget the gravy!

It’s wine o’clock

No shame here.

Come on

Maybe we should just do dinner rolls and butter next year. At least these Thanksgiving crafts for kids will keep them busy while you cook.

Calories don’t count on Thanksgiving

Eat until your pants can’t take it anymore. Then it’s time to break the turkey wishbone, take a quick nap and rally for round two.

Smart idea

Hey, we’re just trying not to be wasteful! Libras love pie.

Guilty

We could all use a little break.

And tuning out … now

We’ve all been there.

Never enough wine

We’re bringing a red side dish, a white side dish and a rosé side dish.

It’s a sport

Let’s all wear our stretchy pants.

Been training all day for this

It’s a sprint, not a marathon.

Just sayin’

Does anyone think the turkey is the best part? And have they ever met mashed potatoes?

Strap the feed bag on

These people have my back. Or stomach.

The worst job

We cooked. You clean.

Make room

It’s going to be a long night.

Prepare for battle

Psst, last-minute shoppers! These stores are open on Thanksgiving this year.

Don’t take it personally

You’re loved. It’s fine.

Stretch

They must have a little give to accommodate the belly bloat.

Turkey forever

Giving leftovers to guests before they leave? (Who are we kidding? Of course you are.) Add a funny Thanksgiving quote to the container to give ’em a surprise laugh later on.

You’re not fooling anyone

We’d like our carbs, please.

No regrets

We see you judging us. (And no, we don’t care.)

Turkey trot tradition

Let’s leave the turkey day races to other (more fit) families.

Bad dog

At least someone’s full this Thanksgiving. Here are more of our favorite dog memes.

True friendship

Real friends listen to your great aunt’s ramblings so you don’t have to. Pay them back by hosting Friendsgiving this year.

All-nighter?

How many hours till 4 a.m.?

The main event

Pumpkin pie is just a vehicle for whipped cream. We’re not taking comments at this time, unless it’s about sharing these hilarious pumpkin spice memes.

That’s how it works, right?

Amen

This is the truest Thanksgiving triumph and one of the many reasons to be grateful this holiday.
