Sick of my colleagues quoting Friends?

The tv show. I loved the show as much as the next person.

But honestly they quote something from it every day. It’s just not funny hearing it repeated and it’s so old!

Aibu?

@Howyoualldoworkme

Where's my CLINT?

I want to work with you.

You really shouldn’t quote if you aren’t going to do it correctly

Whatever, Linus Biscuit

thanksgiving pants. beef trifle. ross and leather trousers/spray tan ‘you did TWO TWOs!’/fajitas and I’M FINE!’/the Routine with Monica.

i mean, Ross is a whiny man-child but it’s funny.

i don’t like Phoebe though. she’s mean, and annoying, and has terrible, terrible dress sense.

GabsAlot · 04/05/2018 19:59

GabsAlot · 04/05/2018 20:00

IfyouseeRitaMoreno · 04/05/2018 20:00

You weren't supposed to put beef in the trifle. It did not taste good.

But Emily was a bit misrepresented. I mean if your DH had said someone else's name at your wedding YWNBU to be a bit pissed off..

@ifyouseeritamoreno

I agree about Emily. And I never fathomed how and why she went ahead and married Ross. I would have walked away and cancelled the wedding, the second my husband-to-be said his ex's name instead of mine!'

Phoebe name changes to Princess Consuela Banana-Hammock, so Mike decides to name change to Crap Bag Grin

People who love Friends this much usually have very little to say. I find it a handy guide for who to avoid in life, it's never failed!

We had a Joey special tonight. 2 pizzas!

@goforkyourself

Chandler: what's Pleh??

Joey: that's help spelled backwards so that the helicopter can read it from the air!...

Do you even know who Linus is? I know you’re quoting but it makes no sense.

New York City has no power and the milk is getting sour, but for me that is not scary 'cause I stay away from dairy....
