The grandma friend loves to knit; she watches all the soap operas, and she hates to leave her cats alone for more than a couple hours. We're more in favor of a good book, a sarcastic comment here and there, and of course, some sweet iced tea.

1. You talk back to the TV.

Whether it's a sitcom or a reality show, you always have something snarky or insightful to add to the viewing experience.

2. You're always losing your glasses.

You can never remember what room you last put them in (which is probably why you've ended up with more pairs than you can count).

3. You're a sucker for a good movie.

And you're always trying to convince your friends with more modern tastes to watch them with you.

4. You mostly dress in neutral colors.

You're your own brand of stylish, but it's really just grays and muted greens.

5. You don't understand the hype behind going out.

An exciting night for you consists of this week's episode of your new favorite cable series.

6. You hardly ever recognize the songs on the radio.

You stick to your oldies (but goodies). After all this time, they've never failed you.

All of your sweaters are marketed as "chunky."

The roomier the better! And you probably own them in all your favorite colors mentioned above.

8. Speaking of sweaters, you hardly ever leave the house without one on.

It may even be your signature look.

9. You crack some pretty lame jokes.

The cheesiest, corniest, oldest jokes in the book are your go to. And you likely work them in to most of your conversations.

10. You lift everyone's spirits.

Nothing gets a bigger smile than a grandpa's wise advice and hearty encouragement.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together.

Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
