Friends Thanksgiving episode reenacted 

Thanksgiving has been an integral part of the narrative of Friends throughout the ten seasons. However, in one of the episodes, Courteney Cox's Monica Geller puts a turkey on her head to lift Chandler's spirits up. The episode was originally aired 22 years ago, but the GIF or memes where Courteney can be seen wearing the turkey still follows her, according to the actor herself. Especially during Thanksgiving time, fans around the world send Courteney the GIF to poke fun at her. However, this time around, Courteney decided to give it back to the fans. She took to her Instagram and recreated the same moment, asking fans to stop posting it in a rather jokingly aggressive tone.
