Going Home For Thanksgiving As Told By 'Friends'

Greetings, everyone! It's that time of year again where we forget about our diets for one day and indulge upon carbs, after carbs, after carbs. You know it, you love it (the food that is)...THANKSGIVING! Whether you're going home to family or spending time with friends, know that this day is for being thankful for what you have, not politics, family antics, or drama. I understand all of these things because they always arise on my Thanksgiving. I'm here to tell you to ignore everyone and focus on the food, I'm only slightly kidding. As a college kid, I'll be spending time with my family for Thanksgiving and I know that I'll be bombarded with many questions. I decided to incorporate one of my favorite television shows to truly explain my feelings regarding this matter at hand. Here are some of the questions you can expect to hear from your family/friends on Thanksgiving:

1) How's school going?

I'm still alive, but I'm barely breathing: an autobiography.

2) Are you dating anyone?

I've never related more to a gif/human being in my entire life.

3) How about that election, huh?

DON'T REMIND ME!

4) Are you studying hard?

Or hardly studying? (hint: it's the second one)

5) How's the party scene?

Teen drinking is very bad, but very fun (sometimes).

6) Did you have enough to eat?

PASS THE GREAN-BEAN CASSEROLE, PLEASE!

7) How are your grades?

No comment at this time.

8) Are you doing your homework?

I'm dying a slow death.

9) Are you making friends?

About me: Hi, my name is Chandler Bing!

10) Do you have enough money?

Am I a bad person if I say money? I'm only kidding (kinda) Help me, I'm poor.

11) Are you trying to eat healthy?

I'M CURVY AND I LIKE IT!

12) Are you getting a job?

WITH WHAT TIME?

13) How are those 8ams?

I regret this decision (not actually fine).

14) How's the food at school?

Could it BE anymore disgusting?

15) Do you want dessert?

Is that even a question? BRING IT ON!

Happy Thanksgiving from my friends to yours!

P.S. YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO PUT BEEF IN A TRIFLE

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.
