If F.R.I.E.N.D.S. Took Place Today

Friends, a staple TV show, is still so popular today that there are reruns of it every single day. But have you ever thought about what the show would be like if instead of it taking place in thelate 90's to early 2000's, it took place in 2017?

Their apartments would be A LOT smaller

No 20 something year old could afford a huge two bedroom apartment on a chef or waitress's salary. Today, their apartments would be one bedroom, that they made into two with a wall. There would definitely not be room in these apartments to host the number of people they have in the show.

Rachel would have found out about Ross cheating on her much sooner

Someone would have seen something on social media, or heard about it from a friend and text Rachel before Ross could even get to the coffee house from his apartment.

Carol would meet Susan through a dating app for lesbians


Or, Ross would have discovered that Carol was gay because someone saw her profile on the app.

Chandler would have a profile on every single dating website or app

Desperate times call for desperate measures?

Phoebe's music would be available on SoundCloud

So you could listen to Smelly Cat all day everyday.

Monica would Instagram everything she cooks

Her pictures would probably have captions with hashtags such as #Iamanamazingchef #foodporn #chefmonica

Emma would have her own Instagram

Created by Rachel of course to show the world how cute her baby is.

Monica would start a GoFundMe for her wedding after her parents used the Monica wedding fund to buy a beach house

Her and Chandler would also have the most extravagant wedding ever!!

Phoebe would find her Dad through Facebook

Rookie mistake making a Facebook Frank Buffay. If you're trying to hide from the families you abandoned, having a Facebook is probably not the best move.

Chandler would use Vine to do stand up comedy

He would only have 5 followers (Monica, Ross, Rachel, Phoebe and Joey).

Ross would have a hedgehog or some other "trendy" animal instead of a monkey

Sorry Marcel..

Central Perk would have an app so you could order coffee ahead of time

But don't worry, they will still spend way too much time at the coffee house.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
