In the true spirit of Thanksgiving, if your family is anything like mine, they're going to give you a backhanded compliment. It will probably be real nonchalant, while they pour their gravy- like "you're pretty, how have you been single for so long?" or just flat out insult you with a mouth full of mashed potatoes like, "I see you've been taking advantage of your meal plan at school!"

Well enough is enough, this is the year we take back Thanksgiving. Make Thanksgiving Great Again, if you will. We can't let judgmental relatives ruin a holiday dedicated to a delicious home-cooked meal because it's probably the first we, as college kids, have had in a month. So this is where it ends.

Thanksgiving is supposed to be about being thankful for what we have, not dodging relatives that you know are going to have something to say that you probably don't want to hear.

Thus, I've compiled some of the best #ThanksgivingClapbacks to arm you with some ammunition up your sleeve so you're prepared for whatever your relatives throw at you. Aspire to be more like these people to take back our holiday:

1. This girl who's attitude you shouldn't comment on:

2. This guy who doesn't tolerate fat jokes:

3. This Cornbread Critic:

4. This guy who will defend his tattoos at all costs:

5. This girl who feels strongly about her Sephora hauls:

6. This guy who is proud of his degree:

7. This girl who defended her attitude with attitude:

8. This loose cannon:

9. This girl who won't tolerate grade talk on break

10. This girl who will talk about age if you want to talk about age:

So go forth and take back what is rightfully ours!

I can't guarantee these will go over well with your relatives, but if thanksgiving is as important to you as it is to me, I suppose it's worth a shot.
