<p>Right now, you're likely either on the road, braving the hordes for a last-minute Whole Foods run, or settling into your childhood bedroom. That's because tomorrow is Thanksgiving. It's a day for pigging out, but it's also a day for socializing with people you rarely see. Thus you're likely to face any number of awkward social situations over the next 48 hours.</p>
<p>While we can’t do much to bail you out when your great aunt asks why you’re living in sin with your boyfriend, we can provide the next best thing: an appropriate reaction GIF to express your feelings</p>

<p>When everyone in the family persists in calling that steadfastly unmarried aunt's female guest her "roommate":</p>

<p>When you have to explain what exactly it is you do again:</p>
<p><a href="http://nyobetabeat.files.wordpress.com/2012/11/tumblr_m44k4tgdhf1qlfwzk.gif"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-71318" title="tumblr_m44k4tgDhF1qlfwzk" alt="" src="http://nyobetabeat.files.wordpress.com/2012/11/tumblr_m44k4tgdhf1qlfwzk.gif" height="192" width="400" /></a></p>

<p>When your dad gives you the "disappointed" face when realizing you still smoke / when your mom asks you if you <em>really </em>want that third slice of cake:</p>
