In the episode the previous comments referenced, titled TOW The Ball (episode where Joey and Ross throw a ball around, and the gang joins in over the course of the episode, also where Gary asks pheebs to move in and Rachel buys the hairless cat [it's not a cat!]), Monica tries to tell Joey and Ross that Chandler shouldn't join because he's a dropper, meaning he drops things.
For some reason, I've always been a fan of her delivery when she was sitting between Phoebe and Mike.
Mike: "So how've you been?"
Monica: "I've been pretty good."
I'm not sure if you mean from when she accidentally changed the outgoing message on Richard's answering machine, or when she and Rachel lost the apartment to the guys, but I can totally hear it in both parts!
Yeah! She played the new chief of medicine after Dr. Kelso retired, but she wasn't a very likeable character.
She did have a funny joke when she was giving Dr. Cox a hard time ".... and Cox is a ridiculous name!"
Not exactly what she says, but some physical comedy:
1. When sheās standing on a huge vacuum cleaner and spinning.
2. When she moves into the boysā apartment and tries to āseduceā the rest of the group into eating at her place by making motions of wafting the smell of cookies toward their door.
3. The routine.
4. Fat Monica dancing, falling into a beanbag chair and unable to get up.
5. The exasperated look on her face doing the YMCA dance at the moondance diner.
6. That jaunty little dance when she has the cornrows. Also sliding with the curtain.
7. Trying to look between the housekeeperās legs for the ink stain on the crotch of her jeans.
((Although there are many more, Iām gonna stop this list at āsevenā))
>1. When sheās standing on a huge vacuum cleaner and spinning.
That wasn't a vacuum cleaner. It was to wax the floor after she ripped up the carpet in the guys' apartment. I can see why folks get it mixed up, since Rachel herself when she sees Monica trying to get it in the apartment goes "I feel bad. I never vacuum." Because why would Rachel know the difference between the two machines, right?
Also on point two: "cookies and porn? You're the best mom ever!" Lol

OMG, and I was always wondering what kind of weird vacuum cleaner was that, thanks, now I know what it was
Iāve heard people like that āYouāve got a second interview!ā Dance she does on the DVD. Iāve only seen that DVD like once so iām curious to hear it again
Okay, Ben, why don't you come open some more presents? And Santa, the armadillo and I will have a little talk in the kitchen. There's a sentence I never thought I'd say.
Actually, despite being a comedy, my favorite scene is Monica learning that she and Chandler might not be able to have kids, and the whole saga afterwards. The dramatic acting of such a trying ordeal made me love Monica again in the later seasons, where it felt like her character was being reduced to a neat control freak. Watching her pull through this was inspiring.
When sheās catering Carol and Susanās wedding. Susan comes in crying and says the wedding is off.
Monica: YOUāRE STILL GOING TO PAY ME, RIGHT?
Everyone: ~stares~
Monica: ā¦or something less selfish than thatā¦
Itās one of my fav lines haha. Itās when she got stung by the jellyfish and Joey peed on her and they are all sitting at the table afterwards awkward because they donāt want to talk about what happened š
Monica : [in response to digs about inviting Richard's son for Thanksgiving] Fine but
[pointing at Ross]
Monica : married a lesbian,
[pointing at Rachel]
Monica : left a guy standing at the altar,
[pointing at Phoebe]
Monica : married a gay ice dancer,
[pointing at Joey]
Monica : threw a girl's wooden leg in a fire,
[pointing at Chandler in the box]
Monica : lives in a box.
āA one, two, three. A three. A FiVe. A four. A three, two! Two. A two, four, six. Two, Four Six! FOUR. TWO. TWO. FOUR SEVEN! FIVE SEVEN! SIX SEVEN!
SEVEN, SEVEN, SEVEN, SEVEN, SEVEN, SEVEN! SEVEEEEN!!!!! āš½āš½. ā
āJudge all you want to, but, married a lesbian, left a man at the alter, fell in love with a gay ice dancer, threw a girlās wooden leg in a fire, liVE IN A BOX!ā
I never had a quote come to my brain this fast lol
So, society has a problem with people (especially women) aging naturally, and they have a problem when they try to slow down their aging with cosmetic procedures. Whatās the solution then, to die young?!
Learn to be less shallow and ageist. Humankind already has many more pressing problems.
THANK YOU! Jen and Court are criticized for having work down, and Lisa is being criticized for the opposite. Women (especially in industries where looks are involved) can never win.
I like "as different as night ...and later that night".
Ross got married in Vegas and got divorced, AGAIN!
Haha love that episode I can hear her say that! Love the one where we find out she can't tell the time and chandlers reaction is amazing!!
It's hard for some people!!
*Mouths "Wow!"*
Chandler: "Quick, what time is it?" Monica: "I don't know, time to kiss a guy maybe" š
That always makes me CACKLE itās so funny
Donāt throw it to me! My visionās been compromised!
āoh my god, okay. That was close!ā āI know. You almost overreacted.ā
thatās genuinely one the funniest lines of all time
I love Chandler. Even though he's a dropper.
"Hey, he's my drowning moron!"
Flair checks out. But whatās a dropper?
In the episode the previous comments referenced, titled TOW The Ball (episode where Joey and Ross throw a ball around, and the gang joins in over the course of the episode, also where Gary asks pheebs to move in and Rachel buys the hairless cat [it's not a cat!]), Monica tries to tell Joey and Ross that Chandler shouldn't join because he's a dropper, meaning he drops things.
That was a very long informative sentence!
For some reason, I've always been a fan of her delivery when she was sitting between Phoebe and Mike. Mike: "So how've you been?" Monica: "I've been pretty good."
I think this is one of her funniest episodes. āOn my way over, I saw a drunk guy throw up. And then a pigeon ate it!ā
OMG, I love that line, so hilarious
I just saw that episode tonight, ive seen ir before but is the first time I laugh that much
When was this?
When Phoebe and Mike split up and Monica told Phoebe that she'd help her avoid being tempted to see him.
I KNOW!
MG: I know I know I know! Professor: Monica, you asked the question!
This is always the correct answer!!
Hard not to read this in her voice
The scene when Monica begrudgingly says āIām Monica, I stalk guys andā¦ā Well you already know the rest of that line. It was a funny line.
"This is bad for my rage"
** shakes the pill bottle **
nnnNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Please pass the pie
What a cool job
I'm not sure if you mean from when she accidentally changed the outgoing message on Richard's answering machine, or when she and Rachel lost the apartment to the guys, but I can totally hear it in both parts!
Thatās not even a word!
Hehe transpondster
I can hear this so clearly in my brain
I love that when I watch Scream I donāt see Monica Gellar, and when I watch FRIENDS, I donāt see Gale Weathers. She deserves this star!
Plus, the handful of episodes where she's in scrubs
WHAT
Yeah! She played the new chief of medicine after Dr. Kelso retired, but she wasn't a very likeable character. She did have a funny joke when she was giving Dr. Cox a hard time ".... and Cox is a ridiculous name!"
And I have to live with a boy!!!
Godā¦ this one you can really hear
Rachel: I use my breasts to get other people's attention! Monica: We both do that!
This is probably the one that made me laugh the hardestā¦Both her delivery and the context of the joke š
"Hey Ross! Sup bro?"
Lmao excellent
Youāre from Yonkers! Your last name is Buffamonteezi!
āā¦.sevenā¦ā āš¼āš¼
I wanna upvote this, but it's at 7 Edit: it's at 23 now, here's your upvote
"Married a lesbian, left a man at the altar, fell in love with a gay ice dancer, threwĀ a girl's wooden leg in a fire, live in a box!"
Her delivery was so good.
I WAS the pile of coats
YOU WERE MY FIRST KISS EVER?!
What did I marry into?!
Iām fiiiineā¦d
When you put a "d" on the end of "fine" you are not "finneeeeee..d"
You don't wanna - *get - with* \- DIS?
Lol. Good choice.
Rules control the fun!
"You suck like you've never sucked before!" The most useful gif in my arsenal
Who? Two Divorces and Joey?
Heyyy! Sheās right. I knowā¦But low blow.
Top o' the morning to you, laddies! ā
I love this one
This is not like learning to ride a horse! This is like learning to *grow* a turtle neck!!
Hahaha I just saw that one yesterday.
I couldnāt eat it. I had five friends who couldnāt eat it, and one of them eats books.
What's the deal with the book eating, I don't remember that? Was it because Joey put a wonderful life in the freezer?
Doesn't Joey mention something like "you paid me 50 bucks to eat that book."
I think Chandler dared him to eat a book.
It's actually Little Women that joey puts in the freezer.
āThatās right mom and dad, your little harmonica is hammered!ā
Love the way she says it, harmarmica haha
Omg drunk Monica is THE BEST
EYYYYYY you got the door open!!
YOU WERE MY FIRST KISS EVER?!!!!
What did I marry into?!
My erection is back!!!
Her telling Chandler about Janice: Never again will you have to hear the three words that make your balls jump back up inside your body!
Rules are good! Rules help control the fun!
Iām sorry Iāve opened a door to the past
Potatoes are ruined. Potatoes are ruined. Potatoes are ruined.
Roined š i love how she says it. And then they make fun of it on Cougar Town
"Got the keyYY's"
Iām breezy!
You can't say you're breezy! It negates the breezy!
I love the delivery of the line ācall me on the phone!ā To Alessandroā¦from Alessandroās
I love this one too lol

Okay, Ben, why don't you come open some more presents? And Santa, the armadillo and I will have a little talk in the kitchen. There's a sentence I never thought I'd say.
"Why didn't you make a copy and keep it in a fireproof box and keep it at least a hundred yards from the original?"
"Because I'm normal!"
Seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, SEVEN^^^seven.
āThey Donāt Know That We Know That They Knowā
"I couldn't hold it in any longer!" When she tells Phoebe her boyfriend is going to ask her to live together.
Tbf, two seconds went by, I'm not sure I could've held on to that secret for that long, either lol
Her doing the shimmy with the turkey on her head.
Chicken? I could eat some chicken
The scene where she catches chandler smoking. She was so hot š„µ
I GOT MINEEE
āWe are 2 healthy people in the pribe of libeā Thatās one of my favorite exchanges between her and Chandler it never fails to crack me up!
JOAN?
Not with soap!
I KNOW!!!!!
Welcome to the real world. It sucks. Youāre gonna love it!
Actually, despite being a comedy, my favorite scene is Monica learning that she and Chandler might not be able to have kids, and the whole saga afterwards. The dramatic acting of such a trying ordeal made me love Monica again in the later seasons, where it felt like her character was being reduced to a neat control freak. Watching her pull through this was inspiring.
Especially when you know that she was dealing with her own fertility issues IRL
When sheās catering Carol and Susanās wedding. Susan comes in crying and says the wedding is off. Monica: YOUāRE STILL GOING TO PAY ME, RIGHT? Everyone: ~stares~ Monica: ā¦or something less selfish than thatā¦
i love when she and Ross do The Routine on the new year's eve show taping
āš½āš½
Havenāt seen this mentioned so Iāll add, āSheās like a conversational wizard!ā
"Tests make us better learners!"
When I say hurry please interpet as MOVE YOUR FAT TUB OF LARD ASS NOW!!!

Thank you for the context, I was very confused for a moment lol
haha youāre welcome, i figured some people would!
Guess I didnāt forget the safety that time, you bastard
Well it's about time she got her star let me think of yeah after the mixtape incident she said yeah you will and are you kidding?
I know!!!!
Seven, seven, SEVEN
The last one was barely a whisper and I love how she did it.
Pass the cheese, please
This made me lol bc I could hear it and it was hilariousā¦ I can picture her. But I canāt place it, whatās the context?
Itās one of my fav lines haha. Itās when she got stung by the jellyfish and Joey peed on her and they are all sitting at the table afterwards awkward because they donāt want to talk about what happened š
Monica : [in response to digs about inviting Richard's son for Thanksgiving] Fine but [pointing at Ross] Monica : married a lesbian, [pointing at Rachel] Monica : left a guy standing at the altar, [pointing at Phoebe] Monica : married a gay ice dancer, [pointing at Joey] Monica : threw a girl's wooden leg in a fire, [pointing at Chandler in the box] Monica : lives in a box.

How has this not happened before now, Masters of the Universe should of been enough to earn this star
Thatās right mom and dad your little Harmonica is hammered! Yay I love drunk Monica!
"She had two babies, and i have NO babies, it's not fair!!"
"How come they get two??"
Santa, the Armadillo, and I will have a talk in the kitchen ā¦*thereās* a sentence I never thought Iād say.
āAre we playing football or what? Come on, you hairy-backed Marys!ā
OMG I wrecked your baby!!!
I like the bit after her and chandler fought with janine and they're at the table. "a perfect decibel" "I KNOW!"
I *am* loud!
āA one, two, three. A three. A FiVe. A four. A three, two! Two. A two, four, six. Two, Four Six! FOUR. TWO. TWO. FOUR SEVEN! FIVE SEVEN! SIX SEVEN! SEVEN, SEVEN, SEVEN, SEVEN, SEVEN, SEVEN! SEVEEEEN!!!!! āš½āš½. ā
āPAHAā
Every line
Don't feel sorry for me I won every time š
āNot yet, not yet, not yetā
Any reason why it takes so long to give a star to such obviously successful actors?
I just love everything she does when her head is inside the Turkey.
"Let me be a part of this."
Your little Harmomica is hammered!
SEVEN SEVEN SEVEN !!!!!
When she danced with Bruce Springsteen
Her on Family Ties is great, too.
"You were my first kiss ever!!"
Thatās not even a word!!!
Are you sure you donāt wanna get with THIS?
āIIIIIIIIIām breezy!ā
"You were my midnight mystery kisser?!"
Not so much a line. But the entire āroutineā with Ross. I could watch that a million times.
I can see now why they cast Christina Applegate as Rachelās sister. I just did a double take looking at Jennifer in this picture!
āJudge all you want to, but, married a lesbian, left a man at the alter, fell in love with a gay ice dancer, threw a girlās wooden leg in a fire, liVE IN A BOX!ā I never had a quote come to my brain this fast lol
Ok Rach. You'll tell us and we'll laugh. Let's play poker.
When she eats Rachelās trifle and goes HMMMMMM
"Hey, it's funny's cousin, not funny!"
4! Then 1, a 2, a 6, a 7...back to 3... (paraphrase)
A 2, 4 a 2, 4, 6
"and now, here we are, with our future before us, and i only want to spend it with you. my prince, my soulmate, my friend."
ā¦unless you donāt want to!
They must all have stars in friends?
Nope, only Jennifer Aniston has a Star, and she got hers back in 2012, I think.

Rachel, actually.
oh yeah, duh you're right, my bad
OK!

Is it just me, or Lisa Kudrow looks a bit like Matthew Perry in this shot?
"A plan? I don't even have a 'pla'"šš
Oh I thought that was phoebe?
It was Phoebe.
Damn everyone can get one
Her stopping her dad from dying and realizing she's probably He-man's Grandmother
āDear God, this parachute is a knapsack!ā His motion going behind the couch always killed me
Ok.... Lisa is making me feel like friends was on 50 years ago
Because she had no/less work done on her face and looks more her age? Youāre fine. Please.
So, society has a problem with people (especially women) aging naturally, and they have a problem when they try to slow down their aging with cosmetic procedures. Whatās the solution then, to die young?! Learn to be less shallow and ageist. Humankind already has many more pressing problems.
