Phoebe Buffay Is Life

Dear Lisa Kudrow,

Thank you for creating the greatest character in television history. Phoebe Buffay was the character that always made me laugh and was the reason why I kept hitting "watch now" for the next episode on Netflix. As a Friends groupie, here is 12 of the most memorable Phoebe Buffay lines of all time.

1. "They're great for shoplifting melons."

Phoebe says this when giving Rachel maternity pants that stretch when your pregnant and apparently hold stolen fruit pretty well.

2. "Smelly cat, smelly cat, what are they feeding you?..."

The infamous Smelly Cat song, who could ever forget it (it is annoyingly catchy).

3. "If you didn't just have my best friend's baby, a rabid dog would be feeding on your danglers."

Pheobe's response to when Ross told Mike (Paul Rudd) that she has never been in a serious relationship and he told him that she dated "Vicrum" for six years.

4."Damn you Ref, Burn in hell!"

Thanksgiving comes around and she tries to fake watching the football game with Chandler to avoid helping Monica set up.

5."That's brand new information."

Slick, she knew the whole situation about Rachel being pregnant.

6. "They shan't be long.. One does have a stick up one's ass? Doesn't one?"

For Phoebe's birthday, Joey and Phoebe hold down the table at a fancy restaurant for the rest of the crew to arrive as a waiter insists that they move. Fancy restaurant means it's time to make up a fancier sounding language.

7. "I got hepatitis from a pimp spitting in my mouth... so where does everyone summer?"

This is when she visits Mike's parents on the Upper East Side. Mike tells her to be herself but she fails horribly, which forces her to fake an elegant accent.

8. "If it's a girl Phoebe, if it's a boy phoebo."

In efforts to decide a name for the incoming baby, she gives a creative response.

9. "Her name was Nesele Toulouse."

Phoebe thought the woman who owned the secret recipe to the cookies was french. Little to her surprise, it was simply Nestle Tollhouse.

10. "You Americans always butcher the French language."

Monica asks Phoebe "Nestle Toll House?". Then Monica fetches the Nestle Chocolate Chip bag, throwing it to Phoebe across the room, "is this the recipe?" "YES!... OH...", says Phoebe.

11. "Haul ass!"

She attempted to break into a car so Ross could move his Porsche. However, the car alarm went off.

12. "How much is it?...We will give you 10 dollars."

Chandler and Phoebe shop for Monica's engagement ring. It was priced at 8,600. Her negotiating skills are amazing.

These are just twelve of the many funny, entertaining lines from Phoebe throughout the show Friends. Phoebe Buffay always makes me laugh out loud at the screen, so thank you Lisa Kudrow.

Sincerely,

A devoted fan

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. 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?
