Poll: The Friends Theory

[Argtee]

I'm a Chandler.
I make jokes about everything.

But I can be serious.

 

[hypothetical fact]

This show had tame jokes that could be seen a mile away, situations that would only work in a sitcom and shoehorned drama. It appealed to house wives while their husbands would watch Seinfeld and later King of Queens.

I didn't much care for the show.

 

[Olorune]

eewwww Friends

 

[leetcareface]

It warmed my heart to see that ~40% went for the last option.

 

[Pimppeter2]

I'm probably a Joey in public, but more of a first couple seasons Chandler in my mind.

Anyway, How you doing?

 

[_Janny_]

"Hi, I'm Chandler, I make jokes when I'm uncomfortable." (the similarity ends there though)

I don't really get why there's so much hate for this show, it's just a sitcom like many others.

 

[VanQ]

I voted go to hell, but I think I'd be a Joey if only cos I'm super easy going and love being the funny guy.

 

[messy]

I honestly don't fit into ANY of the stereotypes in Friends.

Seriously, find a way to fit a Japanese/English bilingual gaming nerd with a passion for circus skills, a family curse, Asperger Syndrome and a private education into one of the 'Friends' stereotypes, and then we'll talk.

ermm Joey I'm practically seeing double

OT Chandler for the sarcasm and wit. Ross for my nerdiness, so yeah Ross

 

[FallenJellyDoughnut]

Lol the majority of voters picked the last option...

 

[Disaster Button]

I hate friends. Whenever I tell anyone they usually stop dead in their tracks and just stare at me in horror like my face just gave birth to a mountain goat.

But I've been compared to Chandler a few times, mainly due to my sarcasm, so I'm going with that. Of course I watched the show once to my dismay and that's basically the only connection with him apart from some witty comments. I have a much broader humour range.

 

[BlackWidower]

There's only five there. You said there are six archetypes.

 

[DanielDeFig]

i guess im most like Chandler cause i stick to some moral standards, unlike the other five who tend to bend the moral rules (or not have any concept of morality).

BTW, why is Monica not included. The bordering-on-insanity obssive friend,they cant be that uncommon.

 

[MrGFunk]

I'd say I'm Ross/Joey/Rachel/Chandler/Monica/Phoebe in a sliding scale.

Friends is still funny but it's ALWAYS on.

 

[XJ-0461]

I'm a Chandler, a wisecracker, never say anything serious.
And really unsuccessful with women.

Same here. My friends can get pissed off at how sarcastic I can be though.

 

[President Moocow]

which one is fun-loving and enthusiastic one?

 

[Tonimata]

I'm pretty much a Joey.
REMEMBER THAT EPISODE WHERE HE KILLS EVERYONE?!
Exactly

 

[esperandote]

Ross, the more geeky one.

 

[crudus]

I am probably Chandler in the fact that I make terrible jokes that make the audience laugh but nobody else (what? people don't see the audience?) with a little Ross peaking through since I have random know-how in a field few people care about.

Lol the majority of voters picked the last option...

It is a tie between that and Chandler

 

[imp_spittle]

I only saw one episode; it involved a large number of injuries that I found slightly amusing but not enough to keep me interested in the series. The best thing about the show was the title song.

For whatever reason, I wanted to bang Courtney Cox every time I saw a clip or advertisement for Friends.
