Friends is one of those TV shows that will never, ever get old. No matter how many times we’ve seen the episodes, when they come on TV, we immediately are immersed back into Central Perk and all of the six cast mate’s lives. And – when you have nothing else to binge on Netflix – you can always count on your Friends.
While we all know Monica marries Chandler and Ross and Rachel have a baby together – have you ever thought about what would happen if they all ended up with different people in the end? One Twitter user has cone viral with her theory that Rachel should have never ended up with Ross – and instead, should have been with Joey.
At first I was like – nah. But, after reading this girl’s thread of – dude, 100 f*cking tweets – I am convinced.

2/ I'm loving this "let's yell about TV plots point we hate" thing that's happening EXCEPT that it started about Rachel and Joey on Friends

3/ I am on record as being absolutely ride-or-die anti-Ross Geller, who is for my money one of television's all-time worst human men.

4/ And her brief thing with Joey was obviously intended by the writers to artificially draw out Rachel's will they/won't they with Ross.

6/ ARGUMENT #1: Ross Never Saw Rachel As a Friend, But Joey Did.

7/ From the moment the Friends first meet Rachel, Ross immediately sees her as a romantic prospect. He's never gotten over his crush on her

8/ Joey, of course, greets her with "how YOU doin'" and Monica appropriately smacks him down for hitting on a woman on her wedding day
