Why Friends Is The T.V. Show For You
Bustle

If you need a new T.V. show to start on, I've got the perfect one for you! Whoops was that line too cheesy? So sorry...but it's true! Friends is one of the greatest shows ever created, in my opinion (which should be enough to make you want to go watch it). It's hands down my favorite show to watch when I want to snuggle up in bed with a good show or if I need a show to pick up my mood and make me genuinely laugh! :) There are many reasons for for why Friends is held on such a high pedestal by many people and I'm here to tell you some of them, as well as hopefully enticing you into watching this masterpiece!

1. The comedic timing is on point ALL THE TIME!

2. You will be able to relate to at least one aspect of each of the six main characters' personality.

3. It's educational and will teach you both how to succeed in academics and in life.

4. You'll get to see why people whose names rhyme with shmomicka and shmandler are ultimate #goals (I didn't want to give too much of a spoiler).

5. If you're a foodie, you'll be able to share this passion with Joey and go with him on his constant food journey. You will also learn to never come between a man and his food.

6. Sometimes you just want to be quirky, and Phoebe makes you feel okay with that and even gives you tips on how to achieve your maximum potential quirkitude.

7. If you love Starbucks then you'll love watching them get their coffee on at their usual hang out spot: a cozy and super quirky coffee shop called Central Perk.

8. The show will give you advice on how investing in cat can backfire on you.

9. You'll learn how to keep your house and everything else clean, tidy, and untouchable, thanks to Monica.

10. Chandler, the master of sarcasm, will teach you how to detect sarcasm and use it properly. And you will love him for it.

11. You'll learn that you should NEVER take it upon yourself to deliver a couch you bought to your home. It will end badly.

12. You'll learn about all of the fashion do's and dont's from Rachel, the fashion guru.

13. Ross will teach you to persevere when everything seems to be going SO incredibly wrong (and there are many moments where things go very wrong).

14. You'll see what happens when there's a secret within a friend group. Secrets don't stay secrets for very long...

15. But lastly and most importantly, you'll learn what true friendship means, and how vital it is to have people in your life who love you and want the best for you. Unlike how some of us thought (me included) that a big group of friends is what defined your worth and popularity in middle school/high school, I've realized that a big crowd of friends is not needed in order to feel like you have good and true friends by your side. What gives you those pure warm and fuzzy friendship feels is knowing you have the right group of people around you who will unconditionally make fun of you when you embarrass yourself, but will also be the ones who console you and laugh about it with you afterwards. Take time finding those people, but once you do, live happily and fully with them and don't ever let them go.

What is "talking?" How does one "talk?"

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
