In today’s culture, people have a tendency of moving directly from Halloween’s trick-or-treats to the festive holiday season of Christmas. We aren’t the only people found guilty of this, it’s commercial retail as well. However, we have to remember not to sleep on Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving is a great time to celebrate and reflect on everything you’ve been thankful for within the past year. It’s also a great time to eat some of the best food life has to offer. Here is a definitive ranking of the best Thanksgiving food:

1. Stuffing with cranberry sauce

If we’re being honest here, stuffing might as well be heaven on earth. It is by far the dish I am most excited for, especially because it is a seasonal dish.

2. Pumpkin pie

It wouldn’t be a Thanksgiving dinner without a slice of pumpkin pie. No arguments.

3. Cornbread/Dinner roll

Sure, we consume cornbread and dinner rolls on a daily basis, regardless of the holidays, but the meal would be entirely incomplete without them.

4. Mashed potatoes with gravy

Mashed potatoes are already such an iconic dish. Now, mashed potatoes with gravy? That only takes it to the next level.

5. Green bean casserole

I enjoy eating vegetables as much as the average person does, but green bean casserole makes eating vegetables taste a thousand times better.

6. Pecan pie

Eating pie is hands down my guilty pleasure. Sometimes though, pecan pie can be too sweet for my liking.

7. Turkey

Whether or not the meat tastes dry makes all of the difference in the world. This can either make or break a turkey.

8. Corn

Corn isn’t the best, but it certainly isn’t the worst either. It’s just kind of there.

9. Sweet potato pie

You have hundreds of delicious pies to choose from, yet you choose sweet potato pie?

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.
