This was harder than I expected..... p.s. if you haven't watched friends, stop, go watch it, and then come back!

The Best Main ‘Friends’ Characters Ranked

Flickr

If you ask me what I'm watching on Netflix, 9/10 times I'll say 'Friends'. I have re-watched this show at least 5 times and it never fails to make me smile! It has gotten me through some pretty hard times and has taken away my boredom numerous times. For the most part, I have very strong opinions about the main characters, so here it goes. Feel free to disagree.

6. Ross

Sorry not sorry, but ross kinda sucks. He is just so annoying!!!! First, just because you were on a "break", doesn't give you the right to go sleep with another girl IMMEDIATELY!!!! Second, why the heck did he get married and divorced so many times? Seriously, get it together. Third, he has TERRIBLE taste in women.... besides Rachel of course. Fourth, he is SO condescending and judgmental over everyone. Fifth, the whining. never. stops. JUST SHUT IT, ROSS! Sixth, he finds anyway possible to make everything about himself, and it's obnoxious. I can pop out 30 more reasons, but I think y'all get the point.

5. Monica

Yes, her and Chandler are AMAZING, but Monica can really get on my nerves. She is just so pushy and bossy. She has to be the best at everything, no one else is given a moment to shine. Also... can we just talk about this gif real quick. Monica, honey, your hair looks DUMB. If your hair is frizzing output it in a bun or two french braids! I do, however, feel bad for the lack of attention, love, and support she receives from her parents. Mr. and Mrs. Geller, your daughter is wayyyy better than your son, please pay attention to her!

4. Rachel

It's not that I don't like Rachel, she just has her moments. I was so proud of her when she went her own way and made a life for herself in the city without the help over her parents. But.... her history with Ross really just bothers me and brings her down a few pegs. She tries way to hard with guys and when her snobby spoiled side peaks out it drives me crazy. On the positive side, she put up with a lot of garbage and she was a GREAT mom!

3. Pheobe

My dad is not a big "Pheobe Fan" and to this day I cannot figure out why. She is hilarious!!! Yes, she is a little dippy and the whole "my mom killed herself" excuse can be a bit excessive, but overall Pheobe is always there for a good laugh. I love how comfortable she is with being herself. She doesn't care what anyone else thinks of her and I really admire that. Nothing made me happier than when her and Mike fell in love. The two of them are the true OTP!!

2. Joey

First of all, his intense love for food and his Italian culture really hits home! I feel like something about Joey that is overlooked a lot is his dedication to his career. He doesn't have much success at auditions, but that doesn't discourage him from going to more auditions in the future. Not to mention, did you see how great he was to Rachel and Emma??? He totally stepped in there to help out and he even gave up Hugsy (with only a little bit of whining). Joey's downfall... he is a little too much of a player for my liking.

1. Chandler

How could one NOT love Chandler Bing?! I mean look how cute!!!! i just want to hug him. He is such a great husband to Monica, he is the BEST friend a person could ever ask for to Joey, and he is so cute with the twins at the end of season 10. The poor guy is always looked over and I feel like he is WAY under appreciated. I'm sitting here trying to think of a bad thing about Chandler and the only thing I can think of is that he prefers cats over dogs.... that's it.... otherwise he is perfect! I love you Chandler Bing, I hope I have a husband like you someday.

Well, it's time for me to go watch some more friends. I'm now contemplating doing a sequel to this article in the near future involving less important characters from 'Friends' or even doing this for different shows. Guess you will just have to wait and see :)

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Student Life

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
