Tomorrow, on July the 30th<\/sup>, will be Lisa Kudrow\u2019s birthday. We at This Blog Rules wish her a heartfelt happy birthday and can\u2019t wait to see her rock the new decade (can you believe she\u2019s turning 50?) as awesome as she\u2019s ever been. And since we\u2019ve been covering the Friends show<\/a> recently as well, it was about time to compile a great retrospect on some of Phoebe\u2019s best moments on TV. After all, it\u2019s hard to choose from so many funny and awesome scenes, and this is exactly why we love her. Some fans of the show have argued that compared to the other characters, Phoebe is irrelevant, but we who like her obviously disagree. She is the embodiment of weirdness (much like the character of Jessica Day in the ongoing show \u201cNew Girl\u201d), so she makes everyone feel good about their awkwardness. The fact that there are people out there not in love with Phoebe is beyond me.<\/p>\n

\"1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

So, without further ado, this is our list of the best moments with or by Phoebe from all the years of the show. First of all, no such list can begin without Phoebe\u2019s famous \u201cSmelly cat\u201d songs. Whenever you see her play that song on the guitar, you can\u2019t help but smile, no matter how bad your day has been. Seriously, you should try it as the perfect antidote to a bad day. You don\u2019t need to re-watch the entire series, but just look up that song on Youtube<\/a>. For now, let\u2019s take a moment to remember Phoebe\u2019s evergreen chorus:<\/p>\n

Smelly Cat, Smelly Cat, what are they feeding you?<\/p>\n

Smelly Cat, Smelly Cat, it\u2019s not your fault\u2026<\/p>\n

They won\u2019t take you to the vet.<\/p>\n

You\u2019re obviously not their favorite pet.<\/p>\n

You may not be a bed of roses.<\/p>\n

And you\u2019re no friend to those with noses.<\/p>\n

Smelly Cat, Smelly Cat, what are they feeding you?<\/p>\n

Smelly Cat, Smelly Cat, it\u2019s not your fault\u2026<\/p>\n

Remember, the same Phoebe who was singing this song was also going on about giving birth to her brother\u2019s babies, and about the spirit of the old woman. Oh, and the other song she sang to those children, about how the farmer kills an animal and grinds the meat into hamburgers, is also to be remembered fondly, of course. She definitely had a special sense of music \u2013 as could be seen in that episode when Ross is playing the bag pipes and she tries to sing along by screeching. The first seasons caught her in a special kind of weirdness that seemed to have mellowed out as the show\u2019s seasons advanced.<\/p>\n

Another great moment featured our heroine changing her name to Princess Consuela Banana Hammock. The best part of it is that she convinced (or inspired) her partner, Mike, to change his name as well. To \u201cCrap Bag\u201d. Yes, you read that right. Luckily, the phase wasn\u2019t a permanent one and she returns to her own name after finding the new one a bit impractical in this place called the real life. But she deserves a sincere kudos for trying (and delighting us while at it).<\/p>\n

The list of Phoebe\u2019s best moments should continue with that one time when she was at her wedding and preparing to go outside into the snow. Chandler asks her: \u201cWon\u2019t you be cold?\u201d and she replies by saying \u201cOh, no! It\u2019s ok, I\u2019ll be my something blue!\u201d Or that moment in the season 9 premiere, when she explains to Rachel how she views herself as the master puppeteer of the entire group. You just can\u2019t help not loving her when she pulls something like that with the most relaxed and ordinary air in the world. How about you? What were you favorite Phoebe moments?
