This post's title was from Friends show I saw last Friday. I was so bored last weekend that I ended up not doing anything except watch whatever was on free-to-air channels: MBC 2, MBC 4, DubaiOne, MBC Action, MBC Series, FoxSeries, FoxMovie, CNN, BBCWorld, Al Jazeera News Channel, KuwaitTV and even Arirang.

That Friends' episode (which I later learned as Season 5, Episode 12) was when Ross linked up with Janis (Owwh-mmmmy-Godddd!) who was Chandler's on-and-off-and-off-and-off girlfriend.

Here's the dialogue (which you can certainly find here):

Ross: Dude, we got to talk.
Chandler: Okay.
Ross: I just wanted to tell you something before you heard it from someone else and I hope this isn't too weird, but uh, I had uh, a thing with Janice.
(Chandler laughs, his real laugh this time.)
Ross: What you're-you're not mad?
Chandler: Why would I be mad?
Ross: Well, because y'know there are certain rules about this kind of stuff. You don't uh, you don't fool around with your uh, friend's ex-girlfriends or possible girlfriends or girls they're related to.
Chandler: (realizes what Ross just said and the implications to him - he was already seeing Monica in this episode!) I am mad! But you know what I'm gonna do? I'm gonna forgive you! Because that's what friends do! They forgive their friends when they do everything you just said, all on the list there. Well, but I want you to remember that I forgave you.
Ross: Okay.
Chandler: I also want you to remember that I let you live here rent free!
Ross: All right.
Chandler: And, I want you to remember that I gave you twenty (counts his money) seven dollars. No strings attached. Now, if you can't remember that, I think we should write it down — let's write it down!

This episode let me realize what my certain rules are (those that I certainly abide in and would certainly impose on others too):

GP rules

1. If it's necessary for you to take something from the fridge and you're certain that that something is not yours', you should immediately replace it;
2. You always return what you borrow no matter how small the value is i.e. a bulb of onion, a light bulb, a pack of Mamasita Tamarind, a pitcher of water, etc.
3. We always get what we pay for (also reads: you always get what you deserve, you get back whatever is that you give, etc);
4. You are always judged by your skin so you should always moisturize.
5. It pays to be honest. Anywhere. All the time.

R-18 rules

6. Don't fool around with any of your friends unless your friend wants to fool around with you (and even if it's mutual, you should both be unmarried or unattached);
7. Same goes with your officemates. (If you can't help it, re-read your employment contract to make sure that there's not a clause included which relates to inter-office trysts. And again, you should both be unmarried and unattached);
8. Don't commit yourself to a relationship if you're only after sex. Be honest if it's just a one-night stand.
