In a better world where people don't lash out at each other out of petty vindictiveness or jealousy, there would be nothing to shade about a straight forward Thanksgiving post expressing gratitude for those who make our lives easier.

But in the emotional Mad Max world of social media anything can elicit snark, and this truth is multiplied if you have a privileged platform on par with Chrissy Teigen's.

In celebration of Thanksgiving Teigen made a handful of posts expressing gratitude for the people closest to her.

In one of them, she posed with her nanny and chef in People's Sexiest Man Alive onesies to troll John Legend on winning the title this year.

In another post, she straight up thanked the staff who help take care of the kids and home for making her life far more doable.

"Grateful for people that make our dysfunctional house functional," she wrote.

While this is a harmless and genuinely grateful message, one commenter swooped in with an attempt to shade and call out Teigen's privilege to have help at home in the first place.

"Thankful for my household staff of chefs and nannies," they wrote in quotations, likely with the mocking Spongebob stance firmly in their brains.

The attempted shade didn't exactly work, since Teigen was quick to point out that she was literally acknowledging and expressing gratitude for the help she has in her life. So the joke comment was moot.

"Literally just said that but sure you got me," Teigen replied.

This exchange is proof that while people will go to great lengths to get attention from celebrities (often in negative ways), they don't spend apply those same lengths to actually coming up with a substantial burn. If anyone knew what was good for them, they'd stay out of the comment sections and go for a walk instead.
