Lies, Hypocrisy and the 'Friends' Theme Song
As much as I love the Friends show for it's portrayal of unconditional love (as a geek, people loving me no matter what I do is appealing), I have to admit that it works best on a backdrop of few money worries (Monica's apartment is worth $6000/month?!? No wonder I don't live in NYC...). NPR's Mike Pesca opens up my eyes to the lies and hypocrisies (hyprocrisi? [see? geek!]) in the Friends theme song and is hilarious about it.

Yeah, I can believe it....they had a big apartment, with a big balcony. My second place in NYC was about 8,000 per month. I shared with 6 others. It was a full brownstone on 18th st....but I had never heard of anyone else who lived in a place with corn growing in the backyard......in fact I never heard of anyone else with a backyard.
