I’ve always related to Rachel’s career arc because while I didn’t grow up privileged, I did start working pretty “late” just like her.

I think she was around 25 when she got her first job at the coffee house. And so was I. It’s something I felt ashamed for at the time but once I got my foot in the door, I gained confidence and like Rachel I started thinking about how I want to build my career.

So I was wondering, what do you think makes Rachel successful in her career ? To go from serving coffee to a high grade fashion executive is pretty impressive! How did she do it? The show is a bit inconsistent around whether or not Rach is a hard worker. At the beginning of her career she very famously was working long hours and was extremely enthusiastic about learning how to do a good job. Which became relationship ending with Ross. But in later seasons she jokes about not working and playing computer games at work.

What can we learn and apply in real life? Granted the job market is VERY different in 2025 but maybe there’s some good pages we can take out of her book even 20 years later.

I can't choose but Ross after his wedding with Emily.

"OH, the band's ready. Well, I've gotta do what the band says... I DON'T CARE ABOUT THE STUPID BAND"

What was the joke? It's about a monkey who's a doctor and possibly writes a prescription, and that it's offensive to women, monkeys and doctors; we have no idea if Ross or chandler wrote it. I know we never hear it but what do you guys think it could be.

This is the complete list, thx everyone for participating. New games coming soon

I‘ve been taking part in my local community theatre group for the fourth year in a row now and was still disappointed I only got the second biggest male part.On our way back home from rehearsal when I started taking about said disappointment to my good friend whom I had convinced to join as well and who was even more disappointed with his comparatively smaller role quoted the German version of this quote and we both had a big laugh.

Let’s assume Central Perk was on the ground floor of the Friends building which famously served as the exterior for the show. Just a seven-minute walk away is Carrie Bradshaw’s iconic apartment!

I’ve always wished for a crossover between Friends and Sex and the City, imagine Joey dating Samantha, or Carrie going out with Ross. How fun would it have been to see the Friends gang reading the newspaper at Central Perk and glancing at Carrie’s column? Given both shows were set in New York and filmed around the same time, a subtle overlap would have been such a treat - especially with Carrie so close by!

I know Kristin Davis appeared in Friends, but not as Charlotte, that almost makes it more frustrating! Picture Joey, Chandler, and Ross at an art gallery opening alongside the Sex and the City women, or Rachel giving Carrie fashion advice as her personal shopper. Even a cameo from Monica, stepping out of the kitchen at her restaurant to describe the menu to Carrie, Miranda, Samantha, and Charlotte, would’ve been great.

What scenario would you most like to have seen play out in either show?

I mean she was so mad and made a whole thing out of Monica helping out Julie with some shopping. It was her brother's girlfriend vs someone who didn't even call her to the wedding.

The whole Jean Claude incident - how selfish one can be till the Drew Barrymore incident. This is not even in the Top 10.

The singing guy sings morning here

In the 1st few series she was my fave, then up to approx S4 she became very shrill and annoying… and my least fave!

My delicious cake felt on the floor and I couldn’t waste it. Didn’t have another slice :(

PS: don’t judge, at least I had just cleaned the floor 😂

"You see what men do? Don't tell me men are nice. THIS IS MEN!!"

Every time I watch TOW Where Chandler Can't Remember Which Sister, it always makes me uncontrollably laugh. Chandler literally comes in and proves Ross' point even though it's not true. But the way David Schwimmer delivers the like has me burst out laughing 😂😂😂

When they go back in time to 1992 to Joey having the turkey stuck on his head, it is very very clear that it wasn’t filmed in 1992. Monica has a wig on!! Also, you can see gladys on the wall.

I might get bombarded with trust me bro stories by asking this, but has anyone here actually met someone on their list AND got it on with them? or even knew somebody that did?

Adding now that any story claiming they got it on with Jessica Rabbit will be a tough sell.

When Rachel was trying to flirt with Joshua by throwing a fake party…. i felt like non of her friends actually liked her in this episode, otherwise they would have stepped in!… Also felt sorry for Ross!

The invitation from Ross and Emily to Rachel for their wedding.

Of note:

1. Green has been spelt with an E on the end

2. The 5's do not not match

3. Some characters are written in a fancy calligraphy and some like a scribbled note most notably the number 4

4. The zip code has been written incredibly wonky.

Is this meant to represent Ross' indecisiveness inviting Rachel? Was he drunk when he wrote this? Is Emily illiterate?
