10 Reasons You're the Joey Tribbiani of Your Friend Group

Joey Tribbiani is an Italian-American who loves food, women, his friends, and acting. No matter who you are, there’s definitely a little Joey in you. Here’s why.

You love food. We all love food, especially Joey. Sandwiches, “the Joey special,” (two pizzas), or anything else we can get our hands on is a must. And no, I don’t want to share that.

You’re determined. You have goals and motivations, just like our favorite soap actor. He’s always looking for a new part to play on TV — even when that means a part as the backside of a famous actor in the shower, or as someone who can’t properly open a milk carton.

You don’t mind simplicity. You don’t need to go out and have elaborate plans every weekend. Just like Joey, who’s content with staying in his apartment and watching "Die Hard" or "Baywatch" with some pizza and his friends.

You think outside the box. You’re creative and inventive, which makes life exciting. Why adopt a pet dog or cat, when you can adopt a duck and a chick?

You’re secretly a softie. Do you sleep with a stuffed animal, like Joey’s penguin, Mr. Huggsy? Do you sometimes cry while reading books, like "Little Women"? Or while watching "Titanic?" If you answered yes, you’re a Joey.

You’re hilarious. You have a great sense of humor, and sometimes you don’t even know it. You keep everyone laughing and on their toes — who doesn’t want a friend like that?

You can be a little dramatic. Do you sometimes embrace your inner Dr. Drake Ramoray? Joey can be a bit dramatic, which sometimes works out in his favor, (like when he theatrically reads a children’s book to Rachel and Ross’s baby, Emma, and makes it the best present at the party).

You’re loyal. Joey is the first friend to find out about Monica and Chandler getting together, and he goes to great lengths to make sure nobody else finds out. If you’re like Joey, you’d do anything to help your friends because you love them.

You’re smooth. You’re quick on your feet when it comes to romance and you know exactly what to say at the right time. If you’re like Joey, you might even have a “perfect” story to tell a partner or a well-practiced pick up line. How you doin?

You’re supportive. I’ll be there for you…cause you’re there for me too!

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.

Fandango

There are a lot of foods in this world, but there is only one dish that stands above the rest: Pizza. If you're close to me or at least know who I am, then you know that I'm totally obsessed with pizza. It's one of my favorite things to eat and I will NEVER turn down a slice, even if it doesn't have my favorite toppings. There isn't a day that goes by where I'm not thinking about pizza. I even sleep with a pizza pillow every night! There are many reasons why pizza stands above all other foods, and here are just a couple reasons why.
