I love the fact that Joey turns away from the 'a pet is for life, not just for...' sobering message and thinks it's a commercial!

---Great Phoebe Comeback:
(After Monica tells Phoebe that Pete bought a restaurant for Monica…)
Monica: “Can you believe he just offered me a restaurant?”
Rachel: “What a jerk! You want me to kick his ass?”

---Great Phoebe Line:
Phoebe: “I’m just saying, this woman... I mean, she's fictitious, no?”
Pete: “Why would you say that?”
Phoebe: “’Cause you're still into Monica. So you told her there was somebody else so she would agree to work with you, so... 'cause you figure, oh, if you spend a lot of time together, maybe something might happen, and...”
Pete: “You're good. You're good!”
Phoebe: “Yeah. No, I'm fairly intuitive and psychic. It's a substantial gift.”
Pete: “Listen, can you promise me that you won't tell her, though?”
Phoebe: “Absolutely. Oh, I promise. Tell her what?”
Pete: “Thanks a lot.”
Phoebe: “No, I'm serious. I mean, I'm intuitive, but my memory sucks.”

DROP-DEAD HILARIOUS CHANDLER LINE (from memory; after Phoebe comments that baby chicks need intensive care and Joey almost crushes the chick while petting it):
"Yeah, Lennie."

Particularly funny for me because we were forced to do "Of Mice and Men" in junior school and made our own jokes based on the language, e.g. "It's no good, Dorbge, the bristle's are too short..." / "You G*dd*amned son-of-a-b*tch, Lennie, when Ah said 'hide in the brush', Ah didn't mean the kind you sweep the floor with!"
