The Dumb Friend: Andy Dwyer

We all have that friend who we are genuinely worried about how they take care of themselves on a daily basis.

You know whenever you are around this friend, you will leave with some hilarious stories, whether it be at their expense or not.

The Friend That No One Really Likes: Jerry Gergich

The friend who never understands any of the the inside jokes, usually because most of the jokes are about them.
