How The 'Friends' Theme Song Is Actually Describing 2020 — And It Couldn't BE More Accurate

In This Article:

Everyone knows the iconic Friends theme song and although we may have joked in previous years how relatable it is, here's a breakdown of the lyrics and how they are so 2020, we might never be able to listen to it again after 2020.

So no one told you life was gonna be this way

No one, and I mean actually no one, could have predicted this.

Your job's a joke, you're broke

Episode 12 GIF by FriendsGiphy

Pay cuts, lay offs, 'working from home', and online shopping all day. This line is too literal.

Your love life's DOA

Dont Touch Me Season 9 GIF by FriendsGiphy

Dating regularly was hard enough but throw in quarantine, dating apps and social regulations. We'll never find anyone.

It's like you're always stuck in second gear

Tired Episode 2 GIF by FriendsGiphy

Unproductive. Not moving forward or backwards. Unable to achieve anything. It is all 2020 wrapped up in a lyric.

When it hasn't been your day, your week, your month

Season 5 Loner GIF by FriendsGiphy

It's been no one's day, week or month since January 2020.

Or even your year

Episode 2 No GIF by FriendsGiphy

It's been NO ONE'S YEAR.

But I'll be there for you

Idk whether this is coming from my best friends or online shopping, but either way it works.

It's not like we see the outside world so rain or shine, it just doesn't matter.

I'll be there for you

Maybe this is coming from Netflix instead...

(Like I've been there before)

Yeah, like Netflix reminds you when you've watched one too many episodes. STOP JUDGING ME, NETFLIX.

I'll be there for you

Season 5 Drinking GIF by FriendsGiphy

Maybe it's about alcohol, instead...

('Cause you're there for me too)

Drunk Season 2 GIF by FriendsGiphy

Yup, definitely about alcohol.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
