invisible airwave Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Nobody told me life was gonna be this way today. Chandler Bing, Brad "Cinema Snob" Jones (a big fan of Friends) and Veronica Mars are my biggest influences on my sarcasm. RIP Chandler. Rock, hard place, me indeed. https://www.tmz.com/2023/10/28/friends-star-matthew-perry-dead-dies-drowning/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, when I was in the military, one guy was always volunteering to be part of a crew finishing a building involving glue. Later I found him in the toilet with his wrists slashed. We managed to save him. Needless to say, he got discharged. Btw, how can anybody find 'Friends' funny? Total crap. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After 5 minutes, I turned it off. 100% uninteresting. Years later, I did the exact same thing with The Big Bang Theory, although I may have lasted only 3 minutes. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sorry that Matthew Perry is gone, but Married With Children trumps all for '90s sitcoms. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueschica Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 RIP, Matthew Perry! I liked him in the new Odd Couple he was in for a few years. So many substance abuse issues; I was glad when he started to get sober. It seems like it would be hard to be unknown one day and so famous a few months later from Friends; he dealt with a lot of challenges for sure. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BastillePark Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 I watched Friends one time and that was only because of the person whose room it was said that's what we were going to watch. She now loves shows like The Bachelor and the "Real" Housewives of type shows. Make of that what you will. RIP Matthew. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We even debate which junk is better…. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leanne Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Watching 'Friends' isn't going to be the same now that Matthew Perry is gone. I'm still a little shocked by the news. He will be missed 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treeduck Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 At one point, his gums were so diseased from his debauched lifestyle that his top front teeth fell out as he bit into toast spread with peanut butter, and he found himself carrying them to the dentist in a plastic bag.

Principled Man Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 John Entwistle of The Who tortured his heart. He smoked every day, he had high blood pressure, severe heart disease, and lots and lots of cocaine use over the years. One final cocaine binge did him him. His heart said, "OK, I quit." No tragedy there - just the logical consequence of one's actions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He went through some stuff, especially with his stomach/ colon. What's so heartwarming is Mr Perry's happiness at helping others kick their habit. All the money, notoriety, this simple gesture helping others still seemed very important to him. He turned stuff around, then helped others others. Cool dude.
