As someone who quickly grew tired of Ross from Friends even I will defend he is better than Stolas

Daaaang, alright 😄 I respect that. I’ll give you that Ross did have a few moments of goodness here or there while Stolas… I can’t think of a single thing.

I think the comparison I have in mind is that when Friends was airing, the audience and creators were on his side despite how often he didn’t deserve sympathy for being a total asshole, because Ross was “well-meaning” and “a romantic geek who should get the girl”. In truth, Ross wasn’t the stereotypical alpha male version of a chauvinistic prick, just a different version and so he got away with a lot of bullshit.

Stolas is sensitive and all he wants is love — as said by his stans and the show — so it apparently entitles him to be a horrible character who doesn’t have to suffer any consequences for his actions. The similarity there is pretty strong in my opinion.

Seeing people wanna look at Ross through a Kevin Can Fuck Himself lense is so

I screamed "DO IT" at my phone

Anyway. All the friends are pretty dysfunctional/messy in their own rights, but I have thoughts about how specific characters would feel about each other when the perspective shifts from sitcom to a regular show

I literally saw a Ross & Rachel (Roschel) shipper claim that if Joey and Rachel (Jachel / Roey) ended up together, Joey would have ended up cheating on her.

So... I hear that we might not like Rachel & Joey together, but we have to stop talking nonsense just to justify it.

What do people use to say such nonsense ?! That he was a ladies' man is NOT justification. Joey is literally the most loyal person ever when it comes to the people he loves !

And it's cheeky because I remember that, oh well... ROSS ACTUALLY CHEATED ON RACHEL !

"With your head in your hands, you’re nothing more than his wife" is SUCH a Phochel line in Phoebe’s pov, since Rachel is literally Ross' third wife in canon, and his dream girl.

Ross is so fucking infatuated with Rachel, but not in love with her. Someone in love with Rachel wouldn’t be so quick to bring her down through a list, they wouldn’t join an ‘I hate Rachel’ club b/c they “didn’t know how to handle their feelings”, and they wouldn’t say she’s “just a waitress”, only to act like an asshole when she finally starts doing something she cares about.

Don’t forget that Ross' sole reason for not going through with the annulment is because he didn’t want three divorces. That was all Rachel was, a third marriage.

I've been on a Friends kick lately, and I just watched the scene where Monica and Chandler had their first big fight and he thought it was over, but guess what HE DIDN'T GO SLEEP WITH ANYONE ELSE! HE TALKED TO HER ABOUT IT FIRST AND GUESS WHAT SHE ASSURED HIM IT WAS JUST A FIGHT!! His first thought wasn't immediately to get under someone, no instead he talked to her and worked out the issue with Monica. Some people should have taken notes from Chandler *cough cough Logan* *cough cough Ross*

[theonethatwatchesalotofshows]

I don't hate Ross for writing the list, I kind of understand it- Ross is very analytical and weights out pros and cons in every situation. Also it wasn't even his idea in the first place to write the list and he was against printing it- that's all on Chandler. However, what I do have an issue with is his reasons not to date her, they were all super shallow and his disregard for her boundaries after Rachel told him to leave her alone. When someone says go away and slams the door in your face, you don't go climb up the fire escape!

[only-one-brain-cell]

Every time I watch Friends I wonder what kind of spell Ross has put Rachel under for her to randomly went to go back with Ross, despite everything he put her through when they were dating, and even after.

[wildestheart4ever]

Ross was really out there twisting the story about his and Rachel’s breakup to make himself look like the one who was wronged, fucking outrageous.

I am a proud member of the Ross Geller hate club

[spookyblazecoffee]

I had an idea for a shirt, so I decided to make it on ibisPaint.

Front Back

[pizzaboat]

Me: huh, Ross not wanting to take advantage to Rachel when she's sad about her dad's heart attack... that's decent atleast

Ross afterwards: I haven't had sex in 4 months, I should get a medal for that!

Me: and there it is!

[darklinaforever]

You know... I find it crazy that two series / sitcooms that are already similar in many ways, namely FRIENDS and How I Meet Your Mother, were also on the ship ! I wanted Rachel and Joey to end up together and Robin and Barney to end up together ! And instead I got Rachel and Ross and Robin and Ted ?! (Especially since Barney and Joey are both men who have never been in love before Robin and Rachel…) WTF SCREENPLAYS ?! The whole Ross and Rachel relationship is incredibly toxic and you focused your entire last season of HIMYM on Barney and Robin's marriage ! FOR WHAT ?! ESPECIALLY FOR COUPLES AS BAD AS ROSS & RACHEL, AND TED & ROBIN ! It's like Joey ended up with Dawson instead of Pacey, that makes no sense !

Ross Geller gives me the vibes that he’d make fun of Indian accents

[theonethatwatchesalotofshows]

Ross's logic: "my ex girlfriend doesn't want to see me, but she has my shirt... Let's break into her apartment and steal it back"

Like can't he just buy a new shirt? Wtf

So like…. The bare minimum
