“It’s basically just nipples.”
When Netflix put out all ten seasons of Friends, it was the source of much excitement.
Gone were the days of accidentally stumbling upon the same five syndicated episodes while skimming through every TV station. Finally, we could watch all 236 episodes in the order that the Lord intended them to be shown.
Ever since, people have been taking to Twitter to announce that they were watching the hit series for the very first time.

Did anyone ever really watch Friends for the first time? Was it not always just there?
Apparently not, and these fresh eyes have spotted a few details the rest of the world might have missed.
So first things first… my god the hair

Watching Friends on Netflix and it’s basically just nipples

Yes, yes it is.
Watching Friends for the first time ever. Like Chandler and Rachel, Hate Ross, Joey creeps me out, Phoebe's fun in a scary way. And why does everyone mock Monica for trying to keep a clean, organized home?

Apparently, Ross was the worst human being on the planet too.

They have also settled one of the show’s longest-running arguments.
watching Friends for the first time and Ross and Rachel were def on a break. I don’t know why people argue it was obviously a break

Watching Friends with the boyfriend for the first time. His reaction when Ross says “Rachel” instead of “Emily” 😂😂😂😂 pic.twitter.com/a4z9tOIjeu

There’s an episode of Friends where a group of 26 year olds are shocked that they drank 5 bottles of wine between 7 people over an entire evening and honestly that’s way more unrealistic than the massive apartment thing.

Eagle-eyed viewers have also noticed that another Phoebe exists in the Friends universe and we’re not talking about her evil twin sister.
In the first episode, ‘The One Where Monica Gets a Roommate’, Phoebe can first be seen declaring that she has “just pulled out four eyelashes”, before the camera cuts to show a second Phoebe sipping coffee in a different location, while hearing herself tell everyone about said eyelashes.
