      Thank You on wooden blocks

      1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

      "Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home.
