everyone knows about some of the most iconic phrases and running jokes from Friends that have made their way into real life usage, including "we were on a break", "you're my lobster", "how you doin'?" and so many more. but while some of these phrases we can't help but hear in the voices of Chandler, Phoebe, and the rest, others have actually become so ubiquitous that we tend to forget about their origins on the hit sitcom! you might have forgotten that "the friend zone" was originally used by Joey to describe Ross's stalled-out relationship with Rachel. if he only knew! or when Chandler walked in on Ross and Joey cuddling on the couch in "The One With the Nap Partners" and hit us with one of his all-time biggest gut-busters: "Oh hell nah they all up on spunch bob shit"
